Welcome to LFC Danny Ings. He is definitely a better option than Balotelli, Borini and Lambert and will hopefully help us to achieve our targets next season. With the capture of Milner and Ings, the window is starting to look very bright.
1.) 08 Jun 2015 10:54:20
He has to be.
Just looking at his goal numbers, he's about a 1 in 3 merchant so far.
Not bad for a young lad.
Hopefully he will get into double figures this coming year with Liverpool and that in itself will be an undeniable improvement from the season gone.
2.) 08 Jun 2015 11:22:40
Looking forward to seeing him play as an inverted false wing back.
3.) 08 Jun 2015 11:20:38
I will get behind him, but I'm not sure what makes him a better option than any of the above 3. Borini's scoring ratio at Roma was better and at Sunderland may have come close. Balotellis at City/Milan was better as was Lamberts. Aspas record at Celta or Seville has been decent.
My point is, Brendan Rodgers last season was notoriously poor at getting the best out of strikers that can hit double figures at smaller clubs (or in the case of Balotelli big clubs).
I fear he will not be used to full effect under Rodgers. So actually I guess my doubt lays at Rodgers feet rather than Ings. Let's hope I'm wrong!
4.) 08 Jun 2015 11:31:00
Imred, he's stronger and quicker than Borini, and more mobile / hardworking than Balotelli.
So he should be a better fit for the side.
That's a start.
5.) 08 Jun 2015 12:47:03
You need to look at how many of Balotelli's goals were pens before you start throwing stats around.
6.) 08 Jun 2015 13:13:04
Great signing! Better than what we have. Still think we need a more experienced forward to lead the line together with Ings. Good start to the summer!
7.) 08 Jun 2015 14:36:11
My point was Johnnyr, that Aspas, Balotelli, Borini, Lambert were all better strikers before they came to Liverpool and that their record at Liverpool is completely at odds with their scoring records at other clubs.
Look at the argument rather than fixating on one area.
8.) 08 Jun 2015 15:22:39
I agree with you imred. I think balotelli, lambert and borini scored about 46 goals between them last season before coming back to liverpool. Unfortately the coach couldn't mould the team to their strengths.
9.) 08 Jun 2015 18:55:14
I very much doubt it, Lallana suffered with injuries but we come back a better player next season as if Sterling leaves than he will step in on the left.
10.) 08 Jun 2015 19:48:31
None of the players named above are good enough for this team if we're being honest with ourselves. Jury still out on Ings but Balotelli, Borini, Lambert and Aspas are/were a collective waste of well over £30m. Quoting their past records in different teams/countries means nothing, they have failed to do enough in the red shirt to justify a permanent place in the team.
11.) 08 Jun 2015 20:44:16
I think that if we had had Ings at the beginning of the season we may well have achieved top 4.
He is a far better fit to our "style" of play (although I have begun to doubt what that actually is. ) than any of the current (fit) strikers.
The issue for me are (1) the reduced opportunities for Sinclair and (2) what then is the role for Origi ? There are now three strikers behind Sturridge and that is without Lambert, Aspas, Borini and Balotelli. I can't see another being brought in.
12.) 09 Jun 2015 10:26:01
I think he's a load of crap and we should set the bar a lot higher, just my opinion
13.) 09 Jun 2015 10:41:42
Sinclair will go on loan for the season.
As stated, the club want a striker than can score 20 goals a season and that's not what Ings or Origi were signed for. Ings will be 1st-team squad and Origi will be given time and eased in, if we sign another striker. Sturridge can't be relied on because of injuries. Borini, Aspas & Balotelli will leave and if Lambert stays he'll be used for 17 and a half seconds at the end of games much like this season.

Mohamed Salah sends Egypt to the WC with his double. What a player. Awesome.
1.) 09 Oct 2017 08:14:00
Hope he can find his scoring boots again vs Utd cos he is simply one of the best wide players arguably in the PL, right now.
2.) 09 Oct 2017 08:36:02
Agreed Bingo, he's adapted so well, he is one of my favourite players already, it's a hard league to come into and he's hit the ground running, very happy with him signing for us, I didn't expect him to be this good we have a right gem in him.
3.) 09 Oct 2017 11:50:46
His goal to games record at International level is pretty good!
4.) 09 Oct 2017 13:13:33
Fantastic player. Defenders hate playing against speedsters. And they don't come much faster.
5.) 09 Oct 2017 13:50:10
He just needs to stop missing such easy chances and he'll be a hell of a player.
27 Aug 2017 17:55:25
Wow wow what a match by the lads today. Outstanding absolutely fantastic football. Mane, Salah and Firminho were all on fire and Henderson what a match for the skipper. Bring on Man U!
1.) 27 Aug 2017 17:58:38
Emre Can man of the match.
2.) 27 Aug 2017 17:59:10
I think you mean Man City? We play them next.
3.) 27 Aug 2017 17:59:33
Cracking performance, such a shame the international break is here already.
4.) 27 Aug 2017 18:00:10
Emre can was a beast today, my motm. Started really well so far he seems more athletic and determined to prove how good he is.
5.) 27 Aug 2017 18:02:54
Brilliant performance again. Well done lads!
All playing for one another and great to watch.
Hope they all come back from International break injury free and ready for Citeh
YNWA.
6.) 27 Aug 2017 18:05:15
Emre Can was superb but how about Gini. I would like to have the stats of Gini because he was everywhere today.
24 Aug 2017 17:43:38
Yessss what a draw for us. The best we could imagine.
1.) 24 Aug 2017 17:52:58
Spartak Moscow, Sevilla and Maribor. Very good draw for us. We should qualified easily.
16 Aug 2017 00:12:35
Good win inspite of playing crap. A big thanks to mignolet because without his saves we would have lost. I am really worried abt our 3 midfielders because there is no creativity at all in their game. Hope Couts stays and Lallana come soon or else we will suffer against big teams.
1.) 16 Aug 2017 08:49:31
Big thanks to our keeper for making saves, I don't understand why everyone is insisting we played badly, I thought we played rather well, bar Lovren and Moreno (the left side of our defence gives me palpitations)
2.) 16 Aug 2017 10:50:52
We weren't great but we were not bad either esp. vs a team who had not lost in 15 months at home. In Europe, any road win is precious and the boys need applauding for that.
04 Aug 2017 11:25:27
Hoffenheim!
26 May 2016 09:54:05
Let him go if he wants because he has done nothing to help us win the final and clinch the champions league spot. He was clueless in the final.
24 May 2016 17:24:30
He just sign and took the No 1 shirt.
09 Sep 2017 13:29:50
Klavan is awful. How come he started the game infront of Lovren!
{Ed002's Note - Klopp's choice and I would think the choice of many of the Liverpool fans who spend a lot of time spewing hate over Loven.}
27 Aug 2017 18:05:15
Emre Can was superb but how about Gini. I would like to have the stats of Gini because he was everywhere today.
27 Aug 2017 17:56:35
Our MSF were superb today.
24 Aug 2017 17:56:39
When you see the draw of Spurs, City and Chelsea. We are lucky this time.
24 Aug 2017 17:55:21
Ha Ha Ha. Spot on Ed.
