Jeremy Wilson says that Ings has signed a 4 year contract....the 1 year loan, plus the 3 years after our purchase of him in 2019. That suggests to me that we couldn't cough up the purchase money at the moment, but Liverpool didn't want a loan....so a 'loan' plus guaranteed purchase is the compromise. A bit like getting a carpet on a delayed purchase scheme. Ings desire to come here was probably the factor that pushed it through.

Really like Ings whenever I've seen him play but some of the injuries he's had have been horrendous, but as others have said, if he can stay fit he may just be what we've been missing?

Liverpool will have to pay 2.3 mill to Burnley when we cough up next July.

Interesting things is that anyone who had a hand in training a player is entitled to a cut down the line for every profit. Not sure it counts for Ings, because he may not have been here for the relevant period, but it would be amusing if we could place a claim for development and get a few thousand. And believe me if we could we would....we are known for being on the ball and claiming our dues...shame Bale didn't move on. :)
 
Ings can only get better.

Will probably be Daddy cool or one of our own.
 
Off the top of my head to Abba: Ring, Ring
Ings, Ings, why don't you give us a goal

You've just put a song for Shaney into my head (The Feeling, I love it when you call)

We love it when you score
We love it when you score
We love it when you score
But you never score at all
Say what's the complication
We'll feel such great elation
We love it when you score
But you never score at all, Woh-oh #

Here's one for my own amusement based on Elton John's Daniel...

"Daniel our Striker, score one for me,
do you still feel the pain of those long injuries?,
you're home on a high, Southampton 'til you die,
"Daniel you're a Star", hear the Northam cry"

That song always makes me sad as it was written about the dead child of a friend of Elton John. :(
