Whilst failing he’s notched up about 130 goals or assists in the championship. Can you imagine how many he’d have if he wasn’t failing or ‘always flattered to deceive’ as you put it. Another owlstalk classic! I’d hamper a guess that Ince has more assists than any of our players in the championship and more goals than all bar Rhodes too. Yet he’s failed wherever he went!

toooldforthis Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Lots of promise but very little end product...should fit in well here... Stoke fans don't rate him and are glad to get rid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t afford a big squad full of cheap bits and pieces players. We need quality players fit enough to play 40 games in one position - that’s Ince, at RW. HOWEVER, two downsides. 1. If we play 352 we’ve no clue if he’s capable of playing WB. 2. WB is one of the few positions where we’ve two very fit players already, in Reach and Harris. And we have ok cover. Unlike many on here I’m a huge believer in Reach. I yearn to see Harris and Reach starting every game next season, mainly Reach left but swapping. So, no. Not for me. Though I do rate Ince highly. This is the sort of post I like to read. Comments supported by reasoning/logic rather than *opinions* supported by bu**Dr all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So every other game he scores or assists..... can you imagine his stats if he had end product. To put this in perspective, he has almost twice the assists that Bannan has in roughly the same amount of games.... whilst also scoring 70 odd goals!

FreshOwl Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) Tbf he was decent at this level at Derby a few years back and seems to have gone stale since On a free on decent wages I wouldn’t say no. I can’t imagine us signing any better Edited August 8, 2020 by FreshOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Looked a great prospect as a youngster, think he played for Blackpool against us in cup and missed an absolute sitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatter Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Never rated him since I saw him as a youngster. Was on the wrong end of a Reda Johnson tackle early on. Spent the rest of the game hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Toni Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Not for me. He’s a bit like his dad who think he’s better than he is. Let someone else spend their money on him, Personally I’d like to go for the lad from West Ham who was on loan at Oxford last season - Nathan Holland? A player on the way up rather than one on the wain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick70 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Think he be good signing if we gona play strong target man ( jukewitz or Chris Martin style) and Ince one side and someone elee other in a front 3? Was effective at derby but seems to have gone backwards since going to hudds? Worth a gamble for free if wages can be sorted ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This last season (current form) 31 games, 3 goals, 2 assists...may still be better than Baz 42/2/8 - I don't rate either of them very highly tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we really need is players who've never played a league game, on the verge of being released from Academies" Or we could just post stupid stuff about Messi Ok i exaggerated a bit ( only a bit ) about how rubbish he was at Derby without looking at his stats cos i can't be bothered but ill lay a bet you'd struggle to find many if any Derby fans who would be wanting him back even on a free And for the record its not just that i don't like him i don't know him, its just having watched him over the years he always disappoints and no one is going to tell me he wasn't rubbish for Stoke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only an issue if he comes in on big money and fails. But he could offer us what Murphy did No chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shezzas left peg Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 If the new remit is young hungry players with enthusiasm that want to play for and fight the shirt. Tom Ince fits into none of these. Lazy, in consistant, rarely puts a full shift in. Thinks there's an "I" in team, Would come here and in all probability be quite content to do an "Abdi" it's a definate no from me. Would rather get someone who's not the finished article that will improve, maybe not as good a player on his day, but will run his stones off for 90 mins 30+ games a season if asked.
