Loïc Rémy

[Fernando 6,454]

Loaning Remy out is a stupid move. What if Falcao flops? Costa gets injured? Rely on Bamfod if he stays? Absolutely ridiculous. Remy is more than good enough to play here and his ability to play as a wide forward as well as a 9 is good for our squad. He scored some vital goals last year so hopefully he will stay.

Well if Mourinho does indeed looks to gamble on Bamford I will take it any day of the week.

Don't know much about Traore, but I think Bamford deserves a shot with us.

No matter if it turns out to be a total flop we need to take a chance with our youth!

[The Skipper 20,593]

were you someone wanting us to spend 50 million euros on Reus, even though we dont need him?

£36m on Reus yes, which would add much more quality to our AMs and will allow us to get rid of Cuadrado.

Your statement that we shouldn't buy Reus because we have Cuadrado is even wackier tbh.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Mou can make mistakes too. He bets on Falcao too much.

But it was known. Falcao wont come here to be our third choice. He is still big name. He plays ahead of Jackson and Bacca in nt who are both better strikers nowdays.

If Remy indeed leaves, I expect Falcao to do his job, but he wont. He is shit.

You cant have great transfer window every year I guess.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

Scenario is Costa / Falcao / Traoré

Yep, that's what club think about. Although they will try to sign Lacazette but won't get over the top for him.

Remy leaving has nothing to do with Falcao as far as I understand. I read in one reliable place (ask where if you want) that Remy was bound to leave in March already. Not sure what happened but is something about club and Remy. Really don't have a clue what is this since Remy proved to be excellent backup but yeah, decision wasn't made over the last few weeks but months ago.

There are some things that normal people without knowledge can't understand and this is one of them.

[TheIceMan 596]

If Remy indeed leaves, I expect Falcao to do his job, but he wont. He is shit.

Sorry I know he is fan favourite and I. well not like him but I'm neutral towards him, will NEVER be as good as Falcao! Falcao is twice the stiker Remy is! A world class player and former golden ball countender something that Remmy will never achieve in his career! And some peole not you per se(but you also) need to reopen and reread the Falcao Thread and look they're comments. And what a wank fest it was! Falcao this Falcao that, "Oh please God let him join us" and so on! Some people are such hypocrites I'ts unbelieveble and just to compare what they're posting about him Now!

[Pacquiao 1,834]

£36m on Reus yes, which would add much more quality to our AMs and will allow us to get rid of Cuadrado.

how? so you want us to sign Reus which will mean Willian or Oscar get benched and the £27 Million Cuadrado drops further down the pecking order, and once again doesnt get a chance to play, Cuadrado is a good player and Mourinho will give him a chance next season, which makes signing Reus out of the question, its simply not an area of the team that needs to be strengthened.

Hazard is untouchable, Mourinho has already said he expects big things from Oscar, Willian has settled and adapted to the PL now and finished the season of brilliantly, Cuadrado is then next in line, someone we spent a large fee on, and havent given a chance yet, Reus simply doesnt fiit into our team. Only way it would make sense would be if we sell Cuadrado. As i said this isnt Fifa

So is selling Cuadrado that inconceivable for you? Is there like no chance of it happening (even though he's been linked with a move away)? Because if that was the case then I could perhaps understand your FIFA analogy but I know you're not that naive (well I hope anyway).

Personally I don't rate Cuadrado too much, never wanted us to sign him and Reus has much more quality, so yes, it's not that fantasy-like to want us to sign a top quality player, available at a reasonable price and sell a player I don't rate, but each to their own I suppose.

In your opinion our AMs are good enough but I think there's definitely a scope for improving that. If you're happy with us having Hazard, Willian, Oscar and Cuadrado as our best option at AM then good for you but for me, we can and should improve, especially if we want to compete with the best in Europe. If you think that's so FIFA-like then good day sir, we won't be furthering this discussion.

Falcao was great and all. But he aint anymore. Best example is that at the moment, his form matches the one of Chelsea Torres. Yes he has a little hope to get back in form, but I doubt that, I very doubt that.

Also people back then were cheering to sign Falcao, best striker in the world. What we got now is not half the player he was back then and its normal the opinions have turned.

And from my point its ok, bring Falcao its just a loan. But dont play him just because he is big name and dont favorize him ahead of Remy, becuase the later had better year, scoring some vital goals from bench, something Falcao didnt do for United or Colombia.

Every career goes up and down. I think we signed Falcao couple year too late, like Torres and Sheva.

i dont think there is any chance of us selling Cuadrado in this window, the guy will want to stay especially now that Falcao is coming, and Jose will want to at least give him a chance to show what he can do, as we spent just under £30 Million for him.

imo our AMs are more then good enough to not only dominate the PL again but also to be successful in europe, Hazard, Willian and Oscar are all at a good age and should all improve again next season.

spending that money on Reus makes no sense at all if no one leaves.

No chance, its not worth us selling Remy and relying on Costa, Falcao (who could be just as shit as he was for United) and a guy who has never played in the PL. I'd rather we had Costa, Remy and Falcao than get rid of Remy and use Bamford. Bamford is not ready.

[Calcavandi 7]

Hi, i am Turkish and Trabzonspor fan.

My English very bad

I'm trying to learn this languange :)

Loic Remy contant the Trabzonspor ? This news is true ? I hope Remy come to us. For rent or for sale. İt doesn't matter...

What do you think about Remy ?

[Unionjack 7,531]

I must say if its true we sold him for 7m Euros Im shocked. The lad did everything that was asked of him last season.

OK he didnt set the world on fire but Mou didnt use him enough and instead played favouritizm to Drogs. I understand he is his mate, one of our greatest ever players and his last season but we should never play fovourites with team selection.

For a 3rd choice striker he sat quietly on the bench, never bitched or whined and got up and did his fuckin job. And for the money he cost us I dont think we coulda done much better.

And selling him for that amounts just plain daft.

Its plain as the nose on your face Mou just didnt get on with him for whatever reason which we know that means youre off.

I hope we can get better than him but I got a feeling Bamfords going to come in.

I don't understand this favrotism to Drogs stuff, itisn't true, at least not in terms of starting games.

Most times when Drogba started over Remy was during Autumn and that was because Drogba was playing well, he scored 6 goals in that period.

Drogba was often preferred off the bench because of his hold up play but outside of that period between Old Trafford and Spurs at home (when Drogba was #2 on merit) the only times Drogba got the nod when Costa was unavailable/rested and him and Remy were fit was Schalke at home and Villa away.

Remy might want to be a starter in order to get a place for next year's euro. Don't blame Jose for this.

[Unionjack 7,531]

If so then why for such a small transfer fee. You cant tell me thats all hes worth surely.

To expand on what I said here are the games Costa was rested/unavailable and Didier and Remy were fit and available and who started what.

League

Palace away Remy

Spurs home Drogba

City home Remy

Villa away Drogba

Everton home Remy

Stoke home Remy

Liverpool home Remy

Champions League

Schalke home Drogba

Marinbor home Remy

League Cup

Bolton home Remy

Derby away Drogba

FA Cup

Watford home Both

Bradford at home Both

So it's actually 7-4 in Remys favour and all the times Drog got the nod was the period he was actually in form. If Remy wasn't unfortunate to keep getting injured at the same time as Costa the numbers would be even higher in his favour.

[JaKstone 307]

If so then why for such a small transfer fee. You cant tell me thats all hes worth surely.

Don't believe the rumours untill they are confirmed doubt we will get anything less than 15m euros if he does gets sold.

After reading the epic battle between you and Pacquiao I'm convinced he has a point.

The team just bought Cuadrado for 27m days ago, and its really FIFA-liken to just dismiss a player who arrived in the team in the middle of the season and ask for Reus because you dont "rate" Cuadrado and think Reus has "much more quality", and thats it, we just sell one and buy another.

I think its also FIFA-liken to ask for another attacking player to compete with the best in Europe, since to compete with the best in Europe (I thought winning PL was enough to make Chelsea one of the best in Europe) the first thing to do is giving up 10 years old tactics, and when it comes to signing players, buying AM is the least of our concerns, as long as an average RB is playing as the LB, and a CB as RB because "they give everything" and in CM/DM we only have Fabregas who is inconsistent and Matic who is unidimensional. We need more dynamism there.

About the topic, come one guys. Ramy might be a good player, he was important last season, but he is a player that can be easily replaced.
