New signings 08:30 - Jan 8 with 1548 viewsMattFinish

When Ings was here we were desperate for a decent striking partner for him and to have an option when he was injured but we got Adams. When he left we had two inadequate strikers in Adams and Armstrong. It was blindingly obvious neither were PL standard and both needed to be replaced. Both were apparently on their way in the summer but all we got was Mara who looks even worse than Adams and Armstrong
Now Sports Republic have bought a 30 year old winger who’s been playing in Croatia and China/South Korea for the last 7 years and seem now odds on to buy Apkom from Middlesbrough. How are these two any different to signing Adams and Armstrong?
This has to raise serious questions about our ownership. They appoint a manager who is vastly inexperienced and clearly out of his depth and make a string of very poor signings. Who is making these decisions because they need to go now.

Shame Mara didn’t score at the end yesterday.

I’ve not been a fan of his at all, but who knows what a goal might have done for him?

99% of the team are now what a few years ago we would have thought of as decent squad players. Decent back ups in case first team players got injured.
Now they are our first team players.

we have been crying out for quality in all areas for years, we seem to get one position and forget about the others

I am not sure you can write off the Croatian guy, he looks a good signing for right now

Well I’ve just seen that Nathan Jones has said that we need another 3 or 4 signings before the window closes, so at least it looks like the owners and board are actually gonna try and get the players we need, it’s just now a question of how much they’re willing to spend on each…

Would you have Ings back if reports are true that he's about to leave Aston Villa for possibly Everton?

Thing with Ings is that we could get him back and knowing him he'd get a knock and be out for the rest of the season.
We need signings that are going in and actually play for the rest of the season. Otherwise what's the point.

Good point about Danny Ings.
He has stayed fairly injury free at Villa.
BUT, that is because he's not actually played many minutes.
Could count on one hand how many full games he's played.
His body could not stand up to playing 2 games a week, every week.
I see he was named captain for Villa against Stevenage & got pulled off after 72 mins.
