Aiston Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Could be the antidote to Cisse's horrendous form. Whether or not he can play in a two man frontline i don't know but he looks to have a bit of movement about him that could create more space for a pure finisher like Cisse. Why do i keep hearing this nonsense? Are you suggesting dropping Remy? Surely any suggestion of dropping him isn't a terrible idea. 3 goals in 12 matches, 1 red card. Two of those goals against 9 men Stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do i keep hearing this nonsense? Are you suggesting dropping Remy? It's not about dropping Remy. He's our top scorer. But what's wrong with having different options or approaches to certain games? It's also more likely that Remy will not make his move permanent, so why not try and see if the other two can work together? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not he can play in a two man frontline i don't know but he looks to have a bit of movement about him that could create more space for a pure finisher like Cisse. Or could be the loan signing which allows us to cash in on Cisse if the rumours of selling to Rubin Kazane are true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I was impressed with his showing for ball and running about the channels to get the ball. He'll get up to speed with a week or so of training and show his promise. An issue with many of our supporters is constant slagging off of new players b/c they didn't light it up on their debut. Had this lad been signed at the beginning of the window when all of us were in better spirits and we didn't sell Cabaye some of the quick 1-2s or lay offs would have been applauded and people would have been very excited. Fucking shame that the club signs a player the week they sell Cabaye, get no replacement, go down 2-0 to Sunderland and bring him on and expect him to save us. Leave it to our joke of a hierarchy to never set our players up for success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucaAltieri Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 You mean Pardew said he wasn't ready to play and was absolutely correct? Who'd have thought it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 He came on when we were 2 down at home ffs. In what world can you give a balanced opinion of him in that game? Or indeed say that anything that Pardew did was "absolutely correct" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I thought he looked pretty decent to be honest. He showed some good touches and didn't hide. Get some games under his belt and I reckon he'll be a decent to good Premiership striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimburst Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Has a good touch, can play it first time. Doesn't seem to want to shoot, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Needs to start shooting but holds the ball up really well. Had the beating of Cahill and Luiz in the air for the most of the match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Looked a decent player. Unworthy circumstances to play in. Goes for the majority of our offensive players under Pardew. If he has any say in our supposed "rebuilding" this summer, we'll be set back for years and Carr would be right to go. His impact on our offensive players, it's like he reduces them to meaningless players that just make up the numbers. If he could, he'd play box-to-box strikers.

captainhaircut Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Looks like he could form a good little partnership with Remy. The run and pass for Sammy at the end was quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I think he'll flourish next to Remy and Gouffran. We need a good home match for him to have some joy as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfmag Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Much, much better today. Looks a little one paced but miles better than last week. Won everything in the air too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Just about every video I have seen of him on youtube (yeah I know) he seems to dominate in the air. Definitely about time we had that sort of striker,perhaps now we can be more of a threat from set penises. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely about time we had that sort of striker,perhaps now we can be more of a threat from set penises. Our delivery is more of a problem at the moment. All we do is just plop it in the middle with no pace or variation whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 He is, as I expected, technically decent ; he is lacking in confidence but didn't hide at all despite his thankless task of being stranded on his own for long periods and he came back to help out the defence and m/f. Will undoubtedly benefit by having Remy to take some of the pressure off and I reckon that if he had a bit of coaching from the likes of Shearer at PL CF play, he would be an excellent acquisition. The problem is that the last bit is extremely unlikely to happen and also, de Jong might join Remy in thinking that he would do better elsewhere at the end of the season, which would be no surprise.
