Danny Ings
Surely he is a no-brainer in FH35 now if we assume Anfield Express is reliable enough?
Even if they are wrong we won't pay too much for his cameo because he is so cheap.

Because there are three better strikers?

Re: Danny Ings
He represents excellent value yes but a FH is all about total points. I think it's choosing which Liverpool as many of them represent excellent value if they start. Also because money is no object for some managers, they may want to be spending more on a member of their front 7. Not that spending more equals more points but still think that will happen anyway. If I build a squad I really like and have considerable money banked, I find myself absolutely tying to spend it all!

Who are they? I think only Jesus has better points potential, and that is even if we totally ignore price factor.

Re: Danny Ings
Who are they? Salah and Mane yes, but I totally prefer Baines, Coleman and Mustafi over any Liverpool defender.

Re: Danny Ings
I respect you opinion but I'd also say Lazazette is more likely to get a haul although I like Ings as a player and hope he does well after the terrible injury luck he's had.
I won't be getting Ings in as I have about 6/7 midfielders I prefer meaning I won't be using a 3rd striker. As such, I won't be wasting 0.8m on Ings when he won't be coming off my bench.

Re: Danny Ings
This is the crux for me too. If the leaked lineup is correct Salah and Mane are a definite in my squad. One spot left, and Ings (as good value as he is) is competing against the pool of proven talent in midfield and attack from other teams (which looks strong) as opposed to the pool of defenders (which looks relatively weak).Sutter Kane wrote: ↑20 Apr 2018, 21:46 He represents excellent value yes but a FH is all about total points.
Same for me as umistboy. Jesus, Sane, Sane, KDB, Mane, Salah, Lacazette/Auba, Ozil, Arnautovic, Zaha all look excellent. I'd much rather 7 of those plus a Liverpool defender than 6 of them and an excellent value striker who hasn't played much football I think.
However, if Ings had been a confirmed starter for a long spell of the season I'd be all over him. Good luck to those that do go for him, certainly not a bad call in isolation by any means.

I don't understand this. If I pick Ings, I can pick absolutely anyone I want for the remaining 10 spots.Stemania wrote: ↑20 Apr 2018, 22:41This is the crux for me too.

If you pick Laca/Auba instead of Ings, are you able to pick absolutely anyone you want for the remaining 10 spots? No, you are not. You have to make some other compromises if you pick Laca/Auba instead of Ings.

Re: Danny Ings
I’m with the Finisher here, I think he’s the second best striker this GW after Jesus, and marginally prefer him over Lacazette. Total no-brainer.

Re: Danny Ings
You really think it's a "total no-brainer"? ie. It's so clear cut that Ings is so far a better option than absolutely any other striker that it doesn't require even the singlest, tiniest modicum of thought?
If so, then hats off to you and good luck. But I'd love to know what body of evidence I'm missing that makes it so clear cut.

Re: Danny Ings
I agree... I’m currently rocking a 4-5-1 cos I darent risk any of the strikers; have a plan B which I’ll probably revert to at 11:25 (taking Lacazatte - that will give me a 3-5-2).
I really don’t have any love for the strikers.

Re: Danny Ings
I'm selecting Perez over Ings. He's in form having scored scored 3 in 3, is a little cheaper and will just sit on my bench anyway. I'm having Moreno as my third Liverpool slot after Salah and Mane.

Re: Danny Ings
I recon he's worth a punt for a Free Hit week.
He'll have a point to prove, he's cheap, and he's starting against West Brom with Salah and Mane playing alongside him.

Re: Danny Ings
39 minutes from 4 sub appearances before 88 mins v Everton. This of course following a lengthy absence due to two bust knees.
That said, I think he’s always looking threatening and busy when he has come on as sub. Whereas Solanke by contrast hasnt looked like scoring in his limited minutes.
His Everton appearance was in a bit of a makeshift team... this time he’ll have a full strength midfield as well as Mane and Salah for support.

Re: Danny Ings
Why? TAA and Robertson have produced a lot of points recently and Pools defensive record has been excellent since the turn of the year. Everton and Arsenal are defensively rubbish.

Because TAA and Robertson aren’t meant to be playing.
The byproduct of which means Gómez (returning from injury), Klavan and Moreno are.

That was mostly NOT with Klavan Gomez Moreno on the pitch, who've been barely playing since long, leave alone together

Prefer Barnes to Ings, who no doubt will get subbed for Solanke

Actually I'll only play with Salah Mané and no 3rd Pool, despite on FH
And have Barnes indeed

Ah yes, dodgy defence for sure, expecting VVD to direct them well though.

Re: Danny Ings
In their favour is the midfield and forwards will hopefully keep WBA pinned back.
So a suspect defence perhaps but should have enough to repel the Baggies.
Moreno and Gomez may be rusty, but both were first teamers for the first half of the season.

Re: Danny Ings
Plenty of people here know it because I share it privately with anyone who asks. I don't want to share it publicly and people here have respected it, thanks for it by the way.
For what it's worth I decided not to pick Ings in the end. Am I still entitled to I told you so?
