Tom Ince, will he live up to the hype?

Tue Jul 02, 2013 1:14 pm

There is a lot of speculation about Tom Ince. A lot has been said, some positive and some negative. I think in our haste to want to see a quality signing come in, a lot of us perhaps haven't put too much thought into how good for the club Tom Ince could actually be.

The question is as an untested player in the Premiership will he live up to the hype or are we overpaying for him?

1.How many goals and assists is Tom Ince likely to get us in the Premiership if he got 18 goals and 26 assists in the Championship with Blackpool?

2.Is the 25 million price tag his father once slapped on him utter nonsense? (Could be because of Zaha)

3.How much value for money is he at 8 million plus add ons plus 35,000 a week?

4.Do you think he is very overrated?

5. Do you think he will thrive in the Premiership?

6. Do you think Swansea have any chance of pinching him?

1. It's a how long is a piece of string sort of question... I guess we'll be finding out next season one way or another.
2. F**k aye, but so was the price for Zaha.
3. The wages are more eye-watering than the initial price if you ask me.
4. Only slightly, no doubt he has the potential to be a good player.
5. Again, who knows?
6. I'm stumped to see us linked with him, honestly, at the amounts being suggested, it doesn't seem the type of signing we would usually go for. Could be his dad and agents getting up to mischief?
