Dave Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I don't watch French football but his goalscoring record is decent enough and I'm excited to see what he can do in our shirt should it go through. He looks like a big guy, be good to have some physicality up front again. We needed a striker and it looks like we're getting one. Hope he works with Cisse.

Dokko Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Totally pathetic like. Written by a monkey. Totally out of line, his opinions might be wrong and his stats meaningless but to bring the colour of his skin into the discussion is unnecessary. Hilarious.

alexf Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 He'll do fine here. More than anything it will give us a nice option to partner with Cisse or up on his own. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Remy follows Gomis then I think Shola may decide for himself, there's no reason he can't have a couple of years away from the club to come then come back and coach, since that's what he wants to do.

Indeed, most importantly we've signed someone who provides more solutions than problems. Unlike Bent for example. Seen much of him then? Just from highlights, not enough to assess him properly but enough to say what type of player he is. I like Bent as a player FWIW, just worried about him not being able to play with Cisse... whereas I think Gomis could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TherealnorthernTOON Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 As people said, think this is a signing we need. A runner/hardworker up top we allready have in Gouffran, and he stretches defences quite well. But more of a plan B we didn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Has this quote been mentioned (from Le Progres)? I know we've seen about the fee now agreed but haven't seen this? http://www.leprogres.fr/football/2013/08/02/ol-gomis-est-d-accord-avec-newcastle "Bafetimbi Gomis confided with Tola Vologe this morning that he'd, "agreed everything with Newcastle 3 weeks ago, there was never an issue regarding salary".

Cajun Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Wouldn't mind Bent at all but he doesn't work well with a partner so it would be as another goalscorer in the side rather than a partner for Cisse. I have seen little of Gomis but he looks big, strong, decent movement and capable of getting goals. I reckon he actually could work well with Cisse (who I think is a little like Bent, difficult to find a suitable partner) as he isn't immobile and can do more of the "rough stuff" Cisse isn't made for.
