Pretty decent work that, Ings aside

There was also the £142m from Coutinho to Barca with the €100m premium added if Barca swooped for any of our other players. I think that clause has now expired sadly

When people go on about your net spend trophy, this is probably the most impressive side of it tbh. Fair play.

Don’t forget £7m for Brad Smith. Guy had about 40 minutes of PL experience. Still the one that amazes me the most personally.

This was shocking from Hull. The guy was awful and I think we got him on a free from Spurs too

That was in the same window we got Robertson. Some would say all bar a technicality it was a free transfer

its the power of not accepting the first offer.

it takes 2 to tango, one guy to run the shell game and one sucker to put their money down.

the fact that there are so many suckers in English football is astounding.

We should've got at least £40m for Ings

nope.

sorry but southampton took a half fit crock on loan and set the price to buy then. they took the risk and it paid off.

just cos he's done what he could have done 5 years ago before being crocked doesnt mean there was a queue forms to take him on.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but for me he fit klopps style of play more than origi ever would. Granted origi has went on to score some legendary goals for the club and will go down as a bit of a cult hero but I do wish we had sent him on his way and have Ings his shot.

But maybe its testament to Ings that he wouldnt have accepted that and wanted the move. If thats the case fair play to him. Always thought he was a good player who had horrible luck with us.

Also, someone like Southampton wouldn’t have paid that kind of fee, so we either wouldn’t have been able to sell him or he could have gone to a more direct rival.

Ings seems the type of player who needs a proper run of games and isn't as good as a backup so not sure he would've shown his true potential with us

I don’t think he would have been able to get a run of games with Klopps fitness demands, at Southampton they have been able to manage his requirements and get the best out of him. Even allowing for his fitness issues when he played for us he didn’t really set the world alight.

At least Origi has made an impact on games we bring him on in.

Can isn’t a loss. We got the full length of his contract out of him and it was the players decision to run it down.

Markovic imo was out worst signing in years. Even worse than caroll where we got 2 thirds.of our money back.
