Sort of neutral on Ince. The prospect was exciting before he went to Forest. Now he seems to be right off the boil. Saw him on TV in a couple of Forest matches and then I watched him closely for Hull this weekend. He's out of sorts. I do like his runs though, he was not restricting himself to staying on one side either, he ventures, which always causes defences trouble. I assume we will put him right, and to me he would be 2nd best winger after JR, i just hope we squeeze Hull here and don't get squeezed. If we get him on a perm, to me that's a different story, but we shouldn't pay out of the nose or anywhere close for a loan deal.

As a side note:

The team is shaping up with a lot of young talent isn't it. Thorne 21, Hughes 19, OMG 21, Ince 23, Christie 22, Forsyth 25, Albentosa 26. Hendrick 23.

We could be building a damn dynasty here; then add to that all these U18s and U21s making the England team ...

Add to that Roos 21

I didn't realise JR was so young! That's amazing, thanks for catching that Rama. Hopefully we won't change course with how we are doing things at DCFC. The leadership and decision-making on transfers etc is nothing short of FANTASTIC.

For those struggling to get the video to play - it seems Derby won't get Ince unless Hull get someone in first, and Burton . . . .. . . won't get Calero until Derby get someone in. Everyone waiting for that first domino to fall

 

 

Owen Bradley tweeted that.

Okay, those three have been the most prolific wingers since 2011 - you can't argue with that. You could say some players have better awareness, touch, ability but on paper, you cannot argue that those three haven't been the most prolific. Unless I'm overlooking somebody.

On his attitude, if you could come up with one example then I am all ears. He used to run his ******** off when he was at Blackpool. He never stood still, he was the hub of the team. He always worked hard for the team.

also, it's come from his own mouth. Perhaps he's lying, who knows. It doesn't matter either way. You can't overlook he left Liverpool for Blackpool at 18 in order to play football.

Checkmate.

Have to reply in stages as my phone is being ****.

It's his ability I'm interested in rather than stats. I know Adomah was good for Bristol and Ince for Blackpool. There was a time when our tactic seemed to be pass to Ward and pray.

On his move to Inter.

He thought that playing for Hull City would get him closer to the England set up than playing for Inter Milan!?!?

He went to Inter. Not the other way around. He went to them to tell them he doesn't want to play for them? More like they didn't offer him much of a job.

Same with Monaco.

He thought he'd get more game time at Hull. But he was wrong.

Agreed... But just because we've got much better doesn't mean Wardy has gotten worse... I'd actually say he's an even better player now than he was 4 years ago...

However this is all pure speculation... We don't know what the case was other than it was widely reported that his old man used his Inter connections to get him a trial at Inter... 

 

If he signs for us then my version of it is going to be that he turned down Inter because an old gypsy woman told him if he went to Hull then eventually he'd get to sign for Derby...

Agree about Ward but I'm just saying he's never been the best wide player in the league. Key to us and still important. But that's in our system playing our way. As a footballer I think there's been plenty better.

Got any examples? Because I can't think of too many in our league...

 

I'm with Cheron on this. Ince scored all types of goals and showed he could create something out of nothing.

 

He doesn't lose the ball a lot and works hard for the team. 

 

Ince would be ideal for me, he's like a more experienced Ibe. We've got conservative wingers, but we need a new outlet. Someone that puts the fear of god into defenders through nothing but shear pace and the willingness to drive at a backline.

 

For what it's worth, Jarvis is probably a better all round player but Ince is better for what we need.

I just typed a long list and like I said my phone is being ****!!

But have a good look. There's plenty. A good few have gone on to play a fair few PL games. He's not even our best winger of the last 5 years imo
