Even if he isn't as good a player as Cisse he still might be a better option against certain teams or in certain setups. It'd be the first time in years we'll even have a choice like that to make if it comes off so fingers crossed.
Anyone reporting whether or not this will be a loan move with an option to buy?
Either way i'm really pleased with this, he's the one player I wanted most this summer.
The other positive way to look at it is if we fail to sign Remy or Gomis we now don't have to worry about the possibility of Darren Bent 'strutting his stuff' at St James' next season.
Or Pards playing in a link up role as he's previously mentioned
They've got ambition and a board willing to take action, so probably. Bent to Fulham, Remy to wham and Gomis to see his contract out.
And us not held to ransom. Everyone is a winner.
