Speculation Motown's annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Winter 15/16 rumours thread

[SwedeFox]

Swede, don't forget the FA Cup predictions

Thanks!! Was thinking we had the weekend off. Done now.

Usually i take a lot of the paper rumours with a pinch of salt but the Remy one seriously seems to be building. What are your thoughts? I think he would be a great buy - providing the price is less than £11.5m!

He actually seems hardworking when on the pitch and really lively. He scores plenty when he's on - could be brilliant. I hope that we still have our long term target approach with the stats being important rather than the Sven "established players only" approach. It seems the first two singings this Jan show that approach is still going - there's something I don't like about going for so called "proven players." which is absurd.

Assuming his attitude was on, I'd be on with Remy.

Why care about the price? It's not like we need to save the money for another purchase in this window. If they think he'll help out, spend what I needed.

Same goes for any player.

Expected him to be at a team fighting relegation on loan tbh. Not sure about the lad really. Recently looked either half arsed or injured when I've seen him. £11.5m seems high but hasn't that Mason from Cardiff just gone for about £3m?

Mccormack went for 12. Never forget that.

Also, not a single Chelsea player has seemed anything other than half arsed this season. It's endemic.

 

[homer]

Is he better than Ulloa ?
Yes

Does he therefore make us better ?
Yes

Despite the above, is he still really a little bit shit ?
Yes

Could we/should we be doing a bit better than that, then ?
Yes, too feckin' right

What are you basing that on?

28 goals in 46 in the Premier League.

 

[Miles Away]

Absolutely knows where the goal is and has proven that at the top level. He also seems like the sort of fella that starts fast when joining a club. Given the circumstances having someone ready to contribute now is good.

I'm trying to talk myself into him a bit, but it's not hard to do.

If Homer says he's shit, he's shit.

Agree a bit like. The last bit is dodgy as it's Jamuary and money spent is even more ridiculous at this time of year. I also think Ulloa will make the difference in a few games in the coming months and will be something of a legend when we've got the title.

Or 28 in 3 seasons. He's either going to be hit or shit/injured.

 

[Borderfox]

don't like him , don't want him don't know why it;s just a feeling.

 

[jb5000]

Always quite liked him, also don't know why, just a feeling. Certainly trust Uncle Claudio and the team above that though!

Highly rated up north though surely?

So was Lovenkrands and Joey Barton. Means **** all really.

.

Watching him play, rather than quoting meaningless stats

 

[Durham Fox]

Can't argue with his premier league record

 

[Micky]

Have faith.... Remy might be a bluff for the main man Musa!
