Hanshithispantz Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Remy's the kind of player who will put a shift in regardless, I like him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Which players DON'T come to our shithouse just for the money, pray tell? Perez maybe?, think he came here over some other clubs because he thought he'd have a better chance of playing rather than us paying him big wages. As if he didn't join us for the wages either compared to what he was on, plus he'll be gone as soon as he gets the chance. He'll have left Tenerife for two reasons, move to a bigger league and increased wages. Point is he had various choices to fulfill both those aims. I just doubt he chose us over the rest because we paid him far more than other teams were offering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Nah not trying to say you're wrong like, just was the only player that came to mind when I read your post. Still might not even be right, just the only possibility I could think of, which in of itself is quite damning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 So did Ba and pretty much every other footballer that has joined us under Ashley, i really couldn't care less anymore tbh. Ba signed for us and made a commitment, Remy never did, he p*ssed us about and kept us hanging on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only other team i remember being mentioned was Porto and i wouldn't be surprised if we offered more considering PL wages in general is higher than even teams like Porto usually pay.

Still might not even be right, just the only possibility I could think of, which in of itself is quite damning. He's always sounded really proud to be here like, though I don't doubt that would change if one of the really top clubs wanted him. Don't forget we effectively signed him for the reserves to start with (there were direct comments from someone at the club about him being intended for the 'development squad' IIRC) so it's probably no surprise he's as pleased as punch to be a first team regular already. Anyway, I really hope he stays for a while yet. Love watching him play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he might have been talking out of his arse but I remember him claiming at the time that Barcelona wanted him, but he knew he'd have a much better chance of Football here.

timeEd32 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Are we really arguing about the loyalty of modern day professional athletes? 99% of them want to make as much money as possible, live in as cool place with as many attractive women as possible, and grow their personal brand. And I don't begrudge them for any of that. Team accolades come after. In some ways it's admirable that Remy doesn't try to hide this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 When he was here he oozed more class than any striker we have had here in the past 10 years imo. He instantly made our team look better, created space and was clever with his passing and movement. He is technically gifted on the ball. Only concern would be if we get a fit and motivated Remy.

Cronky Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Remy has the mobility and sharpness that Mitrovic lacks, so he'd make a difference. £12m sounds a bit over-priced, but if he's the best option available, we have to bite the bullet and pay up.

sempuki Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 £12m is a snip these days - especially for a forward that guarantees goals. Just turned 29 too so not exactly ancient. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 £12m is a bargain man. Today's markets are inflated if you can do it in the Premiership, even for a 29 year old. He will still be dangerous for 3 years. It's easily worth it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I can't stand Remy, he only came here to move on and made no secret about that. I know most footballers are the same but Remy didn't even try to hide it and I'm convinced his injury was bullshit. Agree that his injury was totally false and he's obviously a money grabbing shitehawk but, at this moment, he's probably our best chance of survival.

nufcjb Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Up to us now whether to let Leicester take him or fat Mike can splash the cash 1 final time. The only positive is that would Remy want to sign permanently with them or come here on loan, becomes our saviour, goes to the Euros then f***s off to a bigger club?

Big Geordie Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 No brainer for Remy, you would think. Depends on how badly he wants to start every week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berahino looks a no-go and Remy looks our only real chance of getting a proven forward. Not long left to sort this out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
