Danny Ings (Burnley) - SIGNED BY LFC

Another player where we think "he'll be good if we then go and get x"
but then we never go and get the proven player that we need.

I like him. For £3m he is an upgrade on Aspas, Balotelli, Borini and Lambert personally.

However, we need another striker in the summer. I don't want to go into next season with Studge, Ings, Origi and one of the above.

That's the problem mate.

At £3m, we'll have to put up with his near misses, mistakes, injuries, slow to assimilate, and what else? We simply cannot moan can we? What do you expect, he only costs £3m.

would be a far better option then "SUPER" Mario

Watch out Rickie, we've got Danny who is cheaper and perhaps better than you even though you cost next to nothing!

3m, 3rd choice striker and sell Balo, Borini & Lambert for 20m-25m in the summer? I'm not complaining.

That's the problem mate.

Won't be a problem if we actually go out and get a 'top' striker in the summer though!
*crosses fingers*

Considering it's likely we're going to be majorly reshuffling the forwards this summer, this might not be terrible business.

If we continue to play the current formation for the majority of next season, I would be happy with Sturridge, Origi & Ings. However, if we do revert to 2 up front, I would love us to buy a 2nd striker type of player instead of another #9

I like Ings. Forget where he has come from and look at the goals he can score.

He is still a young man, he fired his much unfancied team to promotion and he deserves a shot with a big club imo.

He's the type that Southampton would buy and for us to moan that we never did.

He would improve the squad because he's better than our two Italians and also Ricky Lambert. He is a good fit in that he is quite pacey and can work hard from the front.

Plus this transfer windows is depressing me and I want singing to cling on to. 

Having said that seems strange to leave it til he end of January when we really needed a striker ASAP.  Studge is supposedly back now so it doesn't add up to me.

Well seeing as how long it normally takes us to complete a transfer they figure they better get started now so he'll be here by August.

Apparently we can't sign him and then loan him back to Burnley, against PL rules so this deal is dead for now.

According to Pearce buying him then loaning him back to Burnley violates PL rules!

Not sure where that leaves this deal as Im sure Burnley are adamant they want to hold onto him to ensure their PL survival.

Too quick for me buddy.

When was the last time a British striker like Ings moved from a little club to one of the big 5 and was a success? The odds are clearly against these type of signings succeeding nowadays. 

Sturridge! Chelsea to Liverpool.

Statement from Burnley:
Following growing media speculation, Burnley Football Club would like to reiterate their stance regarding striker Danny Ings.

Ings has been heavily linked in the past 24 hours with a permanent move to Liverpool, with the suggestion that he would then be loaned back to the club for the remainder of the campaign.

This kind of deal is prohibited by the Premier League under rule V7 which states that a player cannot be purchased and loaned back between Premier League clubs in the same transfer window.

Chief Executive Lee Hoos said: “This type of move would violate Premier League rule V7 regarding transfers so simply cannot happen.

“This is the last time we will be making any comment regarding the player’s future.

“Over the course of the window, the player himself, Sean Dyche and the chairman have made it clear he won’t be going anywhere and we consider that the end of the matter.”

He'd instantly be our second best striker. That says very little. I would walk in to the side right now for my finishing prowess.

Good thing is he is the profile of striker we need. At least he fits more than Mario and Rickie.

Bad thing is he is not really proven. Guess we have to wait and see how he goes. I'll probably be watching Burnley more now, though.

Lmao, I wouldn't bet against that too!

Think this is all media speculations, Guess liverpool know ((hope so anyway) about the FA rules about a player being loaned back in the same window
 and I don't know why LFC wants to loan him back in the first place , IF THEY ARE REALLY INTERESTED in the player
 BR said there will be NO dealings this window, and personally I believe that, seeing that Balo, borini and Lambert  madeit clear they are staying
 I was expecting a keeper to be honest but now that simon is playing a bit better these last few matches , I think that will not happen either

 2 days left for this window, and guess No more work for our transfer board is to be done  this window

I'm sure the club know the rules but just goes to show the reporters of these stories now F**k all, but we know that anyway.

The problem is if he comes in then I'm afraid we won't be signing a top striker in the summer. We'd have Sturridge, Origi, Ings, and the other four so-called "strikers" (Lambert, Borini, Balo, aaaandd Aspas) to be offloaded.

Sturridge
Lacazette
Origi
Ings

 

seems like a good player.

i see the same arguments from the doubters that also argued against us getting sturridge and coutinho

"Would the likes of [chelsea, united, city] be after [x player]?"

"[x player] is Not 'World Class'"

"[X player] is Not 'Ready Made'"

"[Player] is not 'Liverpool standard'"
