Guest bimpy474 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Double deal for Gomis and Gourcuff means we can reduce the Gomis price right down so that Lyon don't have to pay St. Ettiene any sell on fee. That you Joe ?, you c***. Lol Joe couldn't come up with such a cunning plot in his wildest dreams Very true, it would take some thinking on his part Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I still have a sneaky feeling that the only play that will manage to clamber over the line will be Carlton Cole A penny for every time this get mention, i'd have £1.78p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Not sure Gourcuff's style is suited to the EPL. Whether he is or he isn't we desperately need some creativity in the team, i'd welcome him with open arms. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Not sure Gourcuff's style is suited to the EPL. Or to Pardew. Maybe he could take out Pardew with a sublime power shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any substance to all this Gourcuff talk by the way? Used to be one of my favorite players until he went to Meelan and seemingly lost all his swagger.

Unbelievable Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 He's a totally different player to Cabaye though, isn't he? Much more attacking, and can also be deployed out wide, if he isn't injured that is? Another made up rumour by the Daily Fail I'd imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 He plays in the hole mostly. He operates nearer the box, he's not a CM like Cabaye. But I suppose with Sissoko and Tiote it would be a decently balanced midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the first attacking midfielder we have been linked with over last 6 months. Genuinely do believe that if Cabaye were to be sold that we would replace him with someone more offensive rather than a like for like and have Tiote and Sissoko behind. Not saying it will be Gourcuff but i think a more offensive player will be signed as Cabaye's replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Neither of Sissoko or Tioté are good enough technically imo. They're simply not good enough in possession starting attacks and spraying the ball around. Wouldn't mind seeing Sissoko as box to box making runs and Anita taking care of the more technical stuff.

Guest bimpy474 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Still trying to get Thauvin according to the morning's Journal. So we'll pay more for someone who doesn't want to come, rather than pay less (if it is less) for Sinclair or Ince. Makes perfect sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
