TaylorJ_01 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. http://www.foot-anglais.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Bafetimbi-Gomis.jpg Think it was the dreadlocks that fooled us Gomis is very... well... black. Will be hilarious putting him alongside Adam Campbell, endless fun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 His hatrick against OM is very decent and available to watch online. Touch for the second goal and movement for the third particularly good. I can't read "OM" without thinking it a french accent. Weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Add Remy, and if they insist on Bent and keep a hold of Cisse (and all of our other key players) then we will be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Add Remy, and if they insist on Bent and keep a hold of Cisse (and all of our other key players) then we will be good. So three new strikers and keep hold of Cisse? ok Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way we will have all 4 at this club next season. I expect Cisse to be shipped out but if we get the other three I will be pleasantly surprised.

So three new strikers and keep hold of Cisse? ok That would be a sensible amount of strikers as far as I'm concerned. Bent/Cisse/Gomis as the main striker options, with Remy/Gouffran as the more withdrawn option / wingish position.

Memphis Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Presumably he's OK with wearing a giant WONGA logo on his chest? Maybe we're waiting to ask him until he's actually arrived - that seems sensible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I watch quite a bit of Lyon because my French mate supports them. As suggested above, he's hit and miss. When he's on, he's really on and can be a beast; when he's off he can be a total donkey. He has the attributes to succeed (FWIW I have never seen him play in anything other than a 4-4-2 as a target man), but he can have streaks in a game where he can't shoot or control for shit. If we get him for £5M or under I would call it a tidy signing, but nothing to write home about. Definitely a huge improvement over Shola though. If the striker pool was Cisse, Gomis, A.N. Other, Gouffran and Campbell being blooded in sometimes then we would be in good shape. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure 4 strikers would be sensible but this is Newcastle. I think people get a little carried away. Yesterday was looking like we potentially might go into season with just Gouffran and Shola and then the Gomis link is announced and suddenly people think sign 3 new strikers aswell as keep hold of Cisse.

Al Moody Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Never seen him in a match - but going off YT he looks a bit clumsy, similar to Bony in that he doesn't look naturally gifted at all, just strong. Better than #23, though. Hopefully not intended to be a replacement for Cisse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cisse/Gomis/Remy/Gouffran/Bent might be ok if we had European football to compete with. 3 of those 5 is far more sensible for a team like us that will only play with 1 striker.

SEMTEX Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 If we are to play long ball it's at least passable if we have someone to hold it up. Is this actually a strength of his though? I don't know enough about him, and don't want to make assumptions based upon his build. Not that it'd surprise me if this is exactly what AP/JK are doing.
