Social media can often be a depressing, disgusting, and down-right awful place at times, but sometimes we see those little sparkles of joy that cause everyone involved to smile, and Southampton supporters are providing just that.

A group of Saints fans on Twitter have been pushing the trend #IngsForBallonDor over the past 24 hours, making it trend on the popular social media site in the UK and sparking countless posts from supporters as to why Danny Ings should be awarded the prestigious award.
Has Ings been Southampton's best player this season?
Yes, no question about it
No, others have been more important
Ings has without doubt been Southampton’s best player this season, scoring 12 goals in the Premier League as stats from Transfermarkt show and firing the Saints out of the relegation zone in recent weeks due to his goalscoring antics, hence why plenty of supporters on social media have been backing the 27-year-old striker to win the 2020 Ballon d’Or.
Here’s what lots of Southampton fans had to say on Twitter about Ings winning the Ballon d’Or…

Saints fans will be hoping Ings’ form continues tomorrow when Tottenham make the trip to the south coast.
