[Earl Hafler]

Welcome, Borini II.

[DJDunk]

Looks confident and composed in front of goal this lad, welcome addition.

[Red]

I'm not sure where my seat finishes.

[Barnesy_10]

Offers plenty of movement, something we have missed from our striker's last season..

[épieur]

I like him. Will be a good addition to the squad.

[Nerik]

Yep a good addition. Still think we need a more experienced striker to be added to our squad (assuming that Balotelli, Borini and possibly Lambert will all leave).

[Gravy]

Two players in, plus Origi, and not a penny spent from the war chest. Or would that be the piggy bank?

 

Anyone, gotta be a good signing as an upgrade on Borini

Ings will cost a fair bit. For us anyway

4-5m Tribunal fee I would reckon.

[Tones]

4-5m Tribunal fee I would reckon.

Hopefully. But Sturridge went to Chelsea for something like 6m and that was a fair few years back.

[The Hitman]

Decent return last year enough to suggest he's better than Borini. Don't recall seeing him play.

We did say the same about Lambert and Aspas this time last year...

[Barnes' left foot]

Meh.

[Cobs]

Danny, we've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Balo, why do you have to play so slow
You're so...
We've been waiting to be No.1 too long

But if you're Ings, Ings, Ings, Ings, Ings, Ings
For the goals you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you're Ings, Ings, Ings, Ings

[Stanley Leisure]

Good player. Used to the league, good touch, decent finisher. Young, too.

 

A marked improvement on Lambert/Borini.

Definitely.

 

He's also very mobile, which is a further improvement. Lambert just isnt and Borini seemed to run around a fair bit achieving very little in the process.

[Maldini]

I think he'll do alright for us, he's not world class or close to it but he brings a bit of intensity to our front line that was sorely missing last season. I've said it before but he reminds me of Craig Bellamy. Not as good a dribbler but he's busy like him, never stops running. Even if he is only an option off the bench it's good to have someone like that coming on against tired legs.

[Stanley Leisure]

Definitely.

Agreed. Don't understand the ire around this signing. Well, I do, but it's unfair anyway.

 

You want someone like him as an option, providing decent movement for Coutinho's trickery. We had nothing like that, last season.

 

Lambert's like an oil tanker and Borini is braindead.

[DazzlaJ]

Wild Ing, You make my heart sing....

[The Hitman]

Based of having watched 3 minutes of a 5 minute Youtube clip, I'm on board with the Bellamy comparison.

He also looks decent in the air, which is nice.

[Cobs]

if he was a youngster already on our books and we'd loaned him last season to Burnley and he'd scored 11 PL goals we'd probably be quite happy to have him back.

 

That's where I am with this.

 

Probably quite happy.

On board with this too.

Positive Mental Attitude

[Cobs]

in reality we'd have been screaming to recall him around November

[crisps]

Lot of my Burnley fan mates really like him as a player (maybe not now though ), decent lad too, done quite a lot with the community and stuff round here... Think he'll do well but still a top striker needed too.
