They've made some great additions. We really need to sign a decent striker this window, preferably in the next day or so. Otherwise you can only see it going the same way, again

Thought he’d go to a bigger / better club / team than that. Cilla just splash the cash for the fun of it - can’t compete with them and West Ham in the market I’m afraid.

On the flip side, Southampton must be rocking after this news, they are pretty heavily reliant on Ings and James Ward-Prowse is being linked to other clubs too.

Massively weakens Southampton as it stands, very reliant on Ings and they struggled when he was injured last season.

Villa have made some quality signings. If they get rid of Smith and employ a decent manager, they could be a real force.

Either thats happened very quickly or Villa being tight lipped. Would like to see us get some signings over the line soon, otherwise we start to fall behind. Cucurella and a striker before the season starts would be nice, any others not so urgent.

We can only dream of getting a striker over the line that quick

Hi, can either of you link to when the deal started to be negotiated? Seeming you’ve both spoken about how it’s moving quickly, cheers

Ah...

Posters losing their shite about club X signing player Y for an obscene sum of money.

Is it excellent recruitment - or is it more money than sense? We’ll prob never know.

They certainly seem to sign some decent players though.

Given the right supply Wellbeck is as good a finisher as Ings.
Both are injury prone but I will admit that Wellbeck is more injury prone than Ings but Ings could easily get injured in the first game and be out for a few weeks.
I am not saying we don't need a striker, we do, but I am keeping everything crossed that we can get Wellbeck ready and he stays fit.
It is also going to be interesting to see how Maupay performs, if he continues to miss lots of chances we could be in a sticky posistion.

If we signed Danny Ings there'd be a 10 page thread of people complaining he was injury prone that would get bounced every time he tweaked a hair.

I’m Welbeck’s biggest fan on here but I’m sorry, that’s just not right, Ings is a far superior finisher to Welbeck. He’s lethal in front of goal. Southampton have been the opposite of us the last couple of years, ahead of their XG, purely because of Ings.

Ings is a brilliant footballer just let down at times by his fitness. This is an excellent signing for Villa and a disaster for Southampton. I’m loving every minute of it!
