Dave Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I'd much sooner have Remy back for the rest of the season than Berahino tbh. Take stock in the summer, see what league we're in and try to rebuild the squad properly (stop laughing at the back). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Remy is mint. Best forward we've had since Big Al. If we get him in, that's a massive leap forward for our survival hopes. For all the shit McClaren gets, if we'd had a striker relatively on his game with his finishing all season, we'd be nowhere near the relegation spots.

sempuki Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 All for Remy but knowing our luck he'd get one of his injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I'd much sooner have Remy back for the rest of the season than Berahino tbh. Take stock in the summer, see what league we're in and try to rebuild the squad properly (stop laughing at the back). I think the opposite tbh, sign berahino now. If we get remy on loan we'll be back here striker wise this time next season (if we stay up this season), they won't learn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Remy and Winny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karjala Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Would rather have him than Berahino, Saivet and Townsend combined. Best striker since Shearer? well, him or Demba Ba for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 £12m for an established Premier League goalscorer who can get 15+ goals a season is nothing, especially when you compare it what we payed for Shelvey and and Townsend this January. We should be all over that. I'm not sure that we will get 3 good season out of him, 2 at most I think, but that £12m will pay itself back by the end of May.

ilikenewcastle Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ba is the best since Shearer FYI lads. Would love Remy back of course though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Loan deal, permanent deal, just get him. We'll stay up with him in the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yep, Ba had a bit of everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ba might've been the better striker, although not IMO, but Remy is definitely the better forward. He'd get goals from any attacking position and is a very good footballer, in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 If we could mould the best attributes from Cisse 2012, Ba 2011 & second half of 2012 and Remy 2013 into one super striker, that will do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 If we bring Remy in I will be very happy. Proven he works here and against anyone. Him and Perez/Mitro/SDJ would be interesting, as he's clever enough to play with any of them. Just got to pray he doesn't get injured if he's the only striker we bring in like.

Nobody Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ba > Remy for us, without a doubt. Remy is still a very good player and we'd probably stay up if we signed him. We should hurry up and sign him so we can play him in the cup at the weekend to get him up to speed a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I don't think Ba had everything, either. Brilliant predator in the box, aye, but not a huge amount out of it. Inconsistent first touch, not particularly skillful, ran out of legs after an hour, not a great dribbler. He only scored one from distance too, iirc?

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ba is the best since Shearer FYI lads. Would love Remy back of course though... We have been through this a thousand times but i simply don't agree. Remy was better technically, better dribbler, better at creating his own chance and to be frank his pace really set him apart as it allowed the entire team to be more effective. You couldn't step up too high against him or he burn you something Ba never really had the ability to do. Which is why the team was in 5th place and 6 points from top at Christmas that year before Cabaye was sold and Remy got injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The only question that hung over Ba was if his knees would hold up or explode like confetti poppers. Only with hindsight do we know it was an unfounded fear. He was completely ace otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should hurry up and sign him so we can play him in the cup at the weekend to get him up to speed a bit. Agreed Ba was the best striker I have seen since Shearer. To think with a little ambition and a better manager we could/should have had a forward line of Remy, Ba and Ben Arfa playing for us even now.
