I missed that, was it good ? Ha! Tell me about your selective amnesia!

Didn't we already have this 'fraud' discussion last May?

I always do a quick check after posting.

Let's get them OTL first.

Ah fair enough then. Add 7 to his goalscoring tally!

I know he had 6 wrongly disallowed goals due to wrongly called offside calls 2 I think, both in the Europa League iirc.

Do we have any stats on his offsides last season by any chance?

Come on. You know it's bad when he doesn't even look across the last line of defence man. The way Ba kept trying to pull ahead of Cisse to get him onside, only for the latter to keep running. What he needs is a proper understanding with someone like Ben Arfa watching his runs and releasing the ball first time to him. The guy's all about instinct so someone needs to have the vision for him not to get offside in that split second.

Watch them play. Nobody remembers Didier at the front post? Are all strikers built like Drogba though? It's a bonus if they do but it's clearly weird you expect it to come from every striker. Messi must be crap since he can't defend a corner too.

Aye, we sign strikers to defend corners. Then we complain every one of our players is in our own half. That 40% from RvP, where did you get that from anyway?

Krul. None of the above are crap either. Don't think I need to dig up those Cisse posts with his lack of aerial defending ability.

Cisse crap. Colo crap. Santon crap. Who isn't crap?

Can't see Spurs going after Gomis after splashing the cash on Soldado and already having Ade and Defoe there. Adebayor has been linked to Besiktas so they could still be one short. WC year and all that, so doubt Gomis would go there to sit on the bench anyway considering Spurs play with one striker.

Someone tell him about the 2m non-bid.

4? We selling Cabaye like?

wtf.

A striker? http://www.themag.co.uk/assets/joe-kinnear.thumb_.jpg

What's with the details?

Naturally I hope he sells but he's in no great rush nor disincentive to.

Hard to keep track ain't it?

Colo, Saylor, MYM, Williamson, Debuchy, Santon, Haidara and maybe Anita. When you get an injury to Saylor or a suspension to Colo or Debuchy, and Haidara is out on loan, we will be down to the bare bones again. This isn't something I fancy. Unless you like Jonas at FB.

Genuinely, isn't that on the high side considering he already has an activated relegation release clause? I doubt a loan will negate that clause. If anything, it should be lower than the reported 6.8m clause.

I suppose. But to say we wouldnt have stood a chance is crazy. He did very well during his half season here. He's good enough for a top 6 team. If there was no case hanging over him there would have been clubs jumping all over to sign him at a fee of 6.8m and probably higher wages than we would have offered. Nothing is absolute, sure but we would have likely been blown straight out of the water by other bids. Bearing in mind too there are many other far more ambitious clubs around us.

They want to keep him in the event they get promoted straight up so it's unlikely they fancy an agreed fee. The rape case has sorta played into their hands. If it wasn't for that case, Remy would likely be gone by now. Having said that, without the possibility of a court case we would never have stood a chance with the clubs queuing up for him.
