Dokko Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I'd take him for the same deal as last time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Whats the deal with his injury record though?? This season above all, has proved we need our best players on the pitch. Can't guarantee anyones fitness I guess but a past record gives some kinda indication maybe? Agree he's the type we need, seems mobile and quick footed...but would be worried about him playing say 20 games a season... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Seems to be doing well so far. If QPR gets relegated, he will surely have earned himself a move to a top 6 club. Can see the likes of Spurs and Arsenal after him, especially in a cut-price deal. Not sure he's done that well. He's looked good, but six moths at a relegation side isn't a lot to earn the faith of a bigger club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Looks like he's in Ba's situation when he went to West Ham. Apparently injury prone but very talented player "proves himself" at a relegated club and gets a free transfer. If he'd sign the kind of deal Ba must have then I'd have him.

iwantcurlyhairtoo Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Despite what he did in January, I would take him. We need to strengthen our strike force, and I think of any decent strikers out there, that we would possibly get on a cut price deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His injury record is a myth, just look at his appearance record in his career. Anyway i'm of the opinion that he has made his bed he can lie in it but if we did sign him and started banging in goals i would soon change my mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 we don't have a chance as he'll probably want to stay in the premiership next season any way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 If he would come on the deal we gave him before, sure. All football players are mercenaries and all fans are fickle. If he joins and he bangs them in, lovely. Looks more of a natural finisher than Gouff and he has the physical attributes Cisse doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Who knows, he might have said to us ill be along in the summer once my fitness is up and earned a wedge in London. Wouldn't put it past Ashley to arrange something like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidfieldGeneral Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 He's as good if not better than anything we've got, would make an improvement on the starting 11 and if he is available on a free or a knock down price then we'd be daft not to be interested. We obviously seen something in him before he went to QPR and since he's been there he's scored 4 times in 6 appearances and looked decent in a struggling team in our league. To many people are far to quick to put sentimentality before reality & if the stories are true he knocked them back 3 times in favour of us before accepting an offer that was to good to turn down. If he did turn down there 30k more a week offer to come to us then that imo shows he no mercenary, but to knock back double what we were offering and a get out of jail free card would have shown him to be an idiot. He has zero connection or affinity to us and playing football is his job, how many people would turn down double wages and release clause in his situation ? I'd only mark him down as a mercenary if he was going somewhere he had little chance of being in the starting 11 every week and was prepared to warm the bench for his money. That was hardly gonna be the case at QPR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Na fuck him, he chose money and London. Hope he struggles for a move with his high wages. I don't think he will. His finishing looks superb, and his stint at QPR has only proven his ability. For all the likes of Gouffran are very tidy players, the difference is in the goals put in the back of the net.

His finishing looks superb, and his stint at QPR has only proven his ability. For all the likes of Gouffran are very tidy players, the difference is in the goals put in the back of the net. They're certainly different kinds of players but I think Gouffran very likely has more than we're seeing at the moment as far as goal scoring (we might see it if Pardew allows him to get near the opposition goal regularly). As far as Remy goes he's on a hot streak at the moment, but he's hardly proved enough to get a top contract elsewhere at this point. Then again if he continues scoring until the end of the season I'm sure some club or other will be stupid enough to offer him silly money again.

Rumbled I like Gouffran but he's not looking like hitting the net too regularly at the moment, although his general play is excellent from a team perspective. Not sure if that's entirely his fault or just a by product of our cautious style. But the end result is we are still relying too much on Cisse for goals.

I would give him a go down the middle, he's more a centre forward anyway. That and Cisse could do with a kick up the arse now and again. Cisse is in the Simpson zone of earlier this season. No pressure on him to perform as there is no one to play instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
