Haven't seen this posted elsewhere, but apologies if it is. Prematch Brucey said to Burnsie that he's got no intention of selling Ince to Derby.
Ince scored the first today, won the penalty for the 2nd and then assisted the third. We really need to use him properly next season and not let a big talent go to waste.
As an aside, there were a fair few people (Tickles springs to mind) calling for us to sign Eoin Doyle in January. He has scored a mighty 4 goals since joining Cardiff. Definetly Premier League quality
Scored almost a goal a game for Fleetwood but in the EPL has scored 4 from 29. The prosecution rests it's case.
Except they're both right sided and left footed. I think this was one of the big problems with our transfer policy last summer. We already had Aluko who's left footed and seems best cutting in from the right. We then signed two specialists in doing that in Ince and Snodgrass. Then we got Ben Arfa as well who's the same. Ramirez is also left footed so out of 5 attacking midfield players/wingers, all are left footed and all but one are best on the right. Madness. Then on top of all that we've played a 352 most of the season which doesn't fit any of them in, they've all played mainly as strikers except Snodgrass who played centre mid in the few games while he was fit.
And Elmo always plays right wing / wingback. For me he is always better up the front than at the back.
Ramirez probably won't stay so I don't see why we wouldn't give Ince a proper go, but Bruce didn't seem that interested in playing him.
Yeah, so he scored goals and plays as a striker. Ergo he's a striker, albeit not a prolific one. Not sure whether you're agreeing with me there or Whether you're just judging his goalscoring record again.
Ironically, two of Vardy's four goals came in games where he was playing left midfield. He's also got six assists, which is pretty good for a team with so few goals.
He can clearly shoot pretty well too. His goals against West Brom and Man U were excellent finishes. He'd improve our strikeforce, as would Nugent.
