Loïc Rémy

Luiz (£40m)

luiz was 40?

I really like his pace and he is a proven EPL goalscorer. The fact he recently failed a medical could be a concern though.

He'll still have to take one for us as well.

43,5mio pounds or 50m euros actualy.

BBC have it as £40m yeah, just took it from there. Various other outlets have it between £40m-£50m so I just took the most pessimistic price.

I know Remy is decent striker but people will be too excited about Torres leaving and will expect alot from Remy like he is Messi or sth, same that happend with Ba.

Honestly, I dont expect many goals from Remy, maybe 10 at most, but that will be success if he does. I still dont see him as someone who will properly replace Costa if he faces lenghty injury. I just dont find Remy proper character wanting to achieve more and win trophies. He looks after money thats why he went to QPR in first place. Dont forget he was absolutely terrible in first season with QPR too, as was with Marseile last season.

But for 8m, I hope he does well. I would just prefer a player with some more potential, someone who is eager to compete with Costa, improve and give most in every game he gets. Just dont see that in Remy unfortunely.

No-one's really going to look to Remy like that. Much like Ba was, I'm sure the consensus will be that Loic is simply coming in to make the numbers in options for attack. However as to whether he could fill in for Costa, should the Spaniard face a long injury, I don't see why he couldn't. It's not like he's completely useless. He has the belief and the talent, the former which abandoned Torres for so long.

I know that, but you will see yourself his thread after few games

Personaly, I just dont like his character for some reason, could change under Mou though, but if it takes 10m-15m more to get Bony, I would take that in sec.

Chelsea have contacted QPR about the striker's availability on either a loan or permanent deal. (Mail) #CFC #QPRFC

Remy has made it clear that he wants to leave Loftus Road for a team playing in Europe's elite competition. #CFC #QPRFC (Mail)

Remy impressed on loan at Newcastle United last season, scoring 14 goals in 26 league games. #CFC (Mail)

Would be a good move, but could he pass a physical? His heart issue scares me.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Actually think about it a loan for 2-3m is better than signing him outright for 8m. Lets test him 1st and if he isn't up to it like Ba we can just send him back next summer and get a top class striker like Cavani if needed.

[Kieran. 6,317]

Costa/Remy/Drogba would be amazing, unlikely as it may be.

Looks likely now...

[CHOULO19 24,332]

He's not always reliable but he gets stuff right every now and then:

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I dont see how is Remy better than Ba...

He is better dribbler and faster, but Ba is better finisher.

According to Di Marzio, we have signed Remy for 10 m euros. Everything agreed with QPR and the player
