Tell ya what, if i was stuck in the trenches, id rather danny ings beside me than 90% of the rest of the squad, the boys got bottle. he might lose a yard or 2 of pace due to the injuries, but i dont think pace was his main attribute, its desire, so danny will be alright wherever, whenever he is called upon

Hope you're right...would love to see him get the chance to prove his worth to JK

If we make the Champs League we will need to use our squad, he will get games, If he does well then Klopp's and supporters confidence will grow in him. I know thats a generic comment applicable to all players but if you consider we may buy a number 9 in the summer,  It may be Sturridges place in the squad that is under threat as apposed to Ings as Sturridge has been on the bench for most of the season and has been third choice behind Origi when he's been available. Ings has an energetic team ethic that Klopp seems to like from his forwards where as Sturridge does not. Dunno could be wrong, but Sturridge's style of play does not seem to be what Klopp is looking for, where as Ings seems to have the Klopp attributes.

I think we will sell sturridge and buy a centre forward and a wide forward leaving us with 6 attackers. Ings will be on the outside looking in. He'll play more for the u23 team than the first team I think.

he's fine as the 4th striker - though I dare say he can't be relied on to stay fit.  We need another striker - and a good one - so nothing has changed.

The idea that losing a yard or two of pace won't affect a player is laughable, particularly a fairly short striker who naturally likes to play on the shoulder.

That said Ings, like Owen did, definitely has the ability to adapt and link play more frequently. But whether he'll be Liverpool quality is a very different matter

It's funny, in one thread you can read that it's desire that takes you to the top as a forward not pace. The will to succeed above all else is the driving force behind what separates the world class from the chicken heads.

Then you can wander into another and be told character means fuck all, lose a yard a pace and you're fucked, may as well pack it in and get a job as a bricky.

I wonder where the truth lies ::)

Personally I feel it will be down to Ings to make a decision. We won't be focusing on our current 4th choice option at CF during the summer, especially when he's coming off the back of two long term injuries. If he wants to leave, either permanently or on loan, it would be down to him to drive. Common sense says he either gets his fitness back on loan at the lower end of the Prem/upper end of the Championship or in the reserves. Given his injuries, I think he does it in the reserves, where the challenges might not be so crunching and our medical staff are closer to hand. If absolutely nothing else he deserves a roll of the dice and I think Klopp agrees.

Also states he can see Sturridge being kept around, and if so, we won't be signing a striker.

No it's not thankfully, it's down to the decision of our manager and his coaching staff.

Wish the lad well he's had no luck at all and looked very bright for us in the few games he appeared in. Will be good to see him get a proper pre-season under his belt and come back firing on all cylinders.
And we all seen how that went for Ings this season didn't we? He failed to even make the bench for any league match before getting injured in October. This was despite making and appears at the end of last season and having a good run out in pre season and with the u23s. If people can't see what the manager makes of him by now they are idiots.

"To say we are gutted would be an understatement," said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp.

"He is such a great boy and has worked so hard that he deserves better luck than this.

"It is typical of Danny's personality, on and off the pitch, that he picked up this injury to his knee when courageously trying to win the ball back for his team by making a tackle.

"But it is this same personality that means he will come back as good and as strong from this latest setback as he has done in the past.

"He is mentally strong, physically strong and will have the very best treatment and rehab possible to make sure when he returns he is ready to play for us at the level we know he is capable of."

Looks like he is going to be back with the u23s again so "when he returns he is ready to play for us at the level we know he is capable of."

Ominous for Ings this....

“I learned we will struggle when we lose too many players to injuries,” Klopp said.

“When (Adam) Lallana, (Jordan) Henderson, (Daniel) Sturridge and (Sadio) Mane are sidelined of course we can’t cope with this. We had to create a squad for this season and we were unlucky that we had four quality players absent at the same time.

To be fair, those players have suffered recent injuries late in the season and are out at the same time. Im pretty sure its no slight on Ings who has been out all season. We know you don't rate Ings, thats fine, but lets see what Klopp does with Ings when he is fit, we will know what Klopp thinks then.

The recent Echo article stated that Ings will stay for another season. Klopp is well impressed with his determination to come back from the latest set back. He has worked extremely hard and is ahead of where most people thought he would be, with his injury.

In the actual press conference video, he also mentioned we have others who have been out injured. I think he just mentioned the four by name as they have been crucially important when fit, whereas Ings has hardly featured at any point due to injuries.

This. He's mentioned losing four key players this season due to injury. Ings hasn't been a key player this season. Think the only 'ominous' outlook is that we're going to increase our squad size, which will make it harder for Ings to get into the team.

Ings will be fine. Let's just say if he stayed in U23's this season, he would have gotten his chances eventually for competing with Origi. The best of them would have stayed at the club or if both delivered, we could have gone in to the next season with both on our books. I think it will be down to his fitness. There are much much worse back up strikers in the league. He is fine for a number 3 or 4

He was, consecutive knee injuries to a player whose strength and pace are important parts of his game mean his quality is a bit of an unknown now unfortunately. That said, the central striker role isn't really a problem area for us as we've always had someone available this season, I'd rather we focused on the abysmal depth in the wide forward positions anyway.

I think central attack is a problem. Origi is hit and miss, sturridge and Ings are always injured. I think players in behind are fine but no fit out and out consistent striker is a concern.

I fully accept wide areas are a problem. Especially without mane

Both are seen as problem areas by the club as reported by journalists such as Tony Barrett and rightly so.

Sturridge unfortunately isnt the same player and finally it seems everyone can now see this and stop making excuses. Origi has been poor to ok this season after looking so promising last and Firmino isn't a striker. A goal every 3 games is not good enough for any club with ambitions to win the league or trophies.

.........Firmino isn't a striker. A goal every 3 games is not good enough for any club with ambitions to win the league or trophies.

That's a bit of a blinkered statement. We play as a team and as a team we are 2nd highest scorers so it doesn't matter much who is scoring and who isn't. Bring in a 20 goal per year player and that doesn't mean that our total goals scored will go up.

Our biggest problem is conceding goals and a new striker won't change that.
