Kévin Gameiro

[bowlingcrofty]

Ahhh I remember me stating this in realistic transfer thread about a week ago. Cant see it happening though. Our board are fickle bastards and once youve burned your bridges with them . you are fucked

 

Is that not a contradiction?

It is my BAD!

[Skirge]

Fuck him, can't remember totally what went on but now PSG are looking to get rid already.

 

Kna we have moved on.

[Punk77]

Thought it might be him. Straight swap for Ba?

 

I'd take it.

 

I'd take him if Ba leaves. Think Gameiro fits better with Cisse too. We've struggled at bit in the 4-4-2 formation and that's maybe because Cisse and Ba are too similar. . Both are classical center forwards who like to take part in the build up play. We could need an attacker who focuses mainly on the space behind the defense: Opposite movement in other words. We'd get that with Gameiro.

[Tisd09]

Haven't seen enough of him to really judge. Given the reports I was excited last year.

 

We are 2nd choice but can you really blame him from playing for an ambitious club in the capital of your country. If he did come here maybe he'd realise this maybe his last chance for now and a big club and knuckle down?

[Interpolic]

Love him on FIFA, that is all.

I disagree .. I think Cisse's strength is his ability to play along the line of the defence and make runs in behind. However we never really got to see how the Cisse/Ba partnership was going to work. Due to Ba losing confidence and being incredibly tired in the legs department in the run in. I think theoretically Ba and Cisse is a better partnership, because Ba likes to drop in the hole and contribute to the build up play, like he did in the first half of the season. Then making a later run into the box. Whereas Cisse stays on the last defender and plays off his shoulder.

[Hughesy]

Genuinely don't quite understand why we aren't in the market for another striker anyway.  We can't go through a season with only Cisse, Ba and Ameobi.  Even if Best doesn't go, we should be looking to sign another striker.

[Wilson]

same, tend to buy him a lot of the time...and tbh that's the extent of my knowledge on him

 

him and piatti

Ugly dwarf, fuck him!

Agreed, far too early to call the Ba-Cisse partnership a no goer.

[ponsaelius]

I thought people wanted a left sided player? Ba is far more suited to that than Gameiro.

[Punk77]

Good point about Ba's tired legs. I think Ba would work well in a 4-3-3 formation.  But Cisse likes to drop into the hole to. Some of his holdup play was excellent. With Gameiro we get an even more specialized attacker. But ideally i'd like ba to sign a new contract.  Once Ba has recovered he'll be his old goal-scoring self. Being fresh and having Cisse and HBA to play with instead of Best and Shola doesn't hurt either....

Didn't Ba play left of a front three at Hoffenheim and certainly West Ham too?

Cisse can hold the ball up. But not as effective as Ba was at it before the African Nations. Primarily that what I see their roles being, but of course they will swap roles for periods during the game, so that Ba can have a rest.

Ba's hold up play home against Man-U was absolutely fantastic. One of the best performances I've ever seen from an nufc-attacker. He just danced around so effortlessly:  Kept  the ball so we could move the team upwards, but was also inside the box when needed.

Yeh it was incredible that performance. Looked a completely different player to the one that played against Everton and Wigan. In those last few games. Hope he hits that form again

[Waddles mullet]

Won't happen. No way will we pay big money for another striker who turned us down last year.

[Mole_Toonfan]

Gamiero is a 9 just like Cisse infact they are very similar..... if you want 4-3-3 which iam pretty sure most of us do.

 

He wont fit even as a Ba replacement...... believe me iam not against the idea of signing quality as it seems iam against signing a lot of quality strikers recently lol its just i dont feel Gamiero and Giroud fit into the way we want to go forward.

 

Striker than can play wide and upfront is what i want and i dont feel Gamiero can provide that.

[AliGupter]

Just wish we could have a 21 year old Bellamy.

[Mole_Toonfan]

Yep that would do nicely 

[Dave]

Sell Cisse for £20m, buy this guy. Rinse and repeat.

[Dan Gleebals]

media/agent/club bollocks.  No thanks. He had his chance, we got a much better player as a result.

[Zero]

To be honest, he played quite well this season, was a major hit, before falling out with Ancelotti...

 

If the fee is as low as 5m, we should snap him up.  We need a backup striker when Cisse and Ba's away anyway.
