AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 In France he's just under 1 in 3 ratio, have to expect less in the PL. Still, we need bodies at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 if the alternative is Gignac then it's Gomis for me all day long. Not long now til we can field a full french 11. Not that I give a shit but the press will be crying about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 In France he's just under 1 in 3 ratio, have to expect less in the PL. Still, we need bodies at the moment. The PL is much more open than Ligue 1. He should be looking to hit similar numbers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering about the pace/physicality etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 He'd be a good signing for us. Not the most consistent goalscorer but a useful player who can, at the very least, be a target man for us. Lots of power and pace, I think he'll do well in this league. Him and Remy in and I'm happy. Similar to Gouffran then. If he signs let's hope he does score goals, it's all very well having players who are good at lots of things, but at the end of the day someone needs to be hitting the net regularly.

LRD Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Was he the one who refused to move, forcing the club to sell off one of their promising youngsters to Monaco/PSG? Yup, refused to move insisting on his choice of club. Lyon had to sell Martial to Monaco to raise funds before a deadline. Apparently rejected Swansea.

Pilko Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I'm sure we were linked in 2008 before the Euros. That said, hope we get him in. Seems decent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 If we sign him and play a 442 we seriously need to upgrade our wide options. Otherwise the lack of supply will be a recurrent issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 A striker, so from me. This will pretty much sum up everyone else's feelings about this. I know fuck all about him and I can't remember what was said about him the first time we were linked with him (but I do seem to remember myself being all for him signing...).

True but if you look at say Negredo, his goalscoring record is not amazing, had a good season last year as did Gomis. Liek you say though hoping he can get a decent return. Scored from a corner last season Difficult to know what to make of him without having seen him in action. He was the next Drogba a couple of years ago, then he seems to have faded from the scene until last season. If he signs let's hope he's going to turn into Drogba again and not Emile Heskey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 At this stage with such a lack of action I will be happy, funny though as a few seasons ago we wanted to sign him. I think it was when we signed Ranger, didn't a few think it was Gomis in the stands watching us play but it was Ranger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea tbh. All I know about him is what I've read on here, and there seems to have been a mixed opinion over the last couple of seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
