Well Monsieur Barton's tweet certainly suggested its done. Interested to see where they play him and how many games he plays, injury wise.

His stock has fallen big time since we were first linked with him, Newcastle is a good fit for him.

I've never seen Remy play. Is he an upgrade on Defoe or Ade?

He would have added something to our squad for sure.

He's flexible enough to play anywhere up top in a 433.

I've seen enough of him to think he would have been a good signing for us.

He'll be a good signing for Newcastle and will allow Cissé to play up front - where he is lethal.

Ben Arfa - Cissé - Rémy

Looks good on paper!

I really think we're gonna kick ourselves for not signing this guy. 8m is a steal. Think he'll do well in the Premiership.

Well we'll just wait and see. For all we know it could be that Newcastle are his level. He'll either partner Cisse up front or work as a wide forward.

Newcastle have a tasty first 11 but the rest of the squad is shocking, but this first 11 with Remy looks good imo

Cisse​
Ben Arfa---------------------Remy​
Cabaye------Anita​
Tiote​
Santon Coloccini Taylor Debuchy​
Krul​
or this​
Cisse​
Marveaux----Ben Arfa------Remy​
Cabaye-----Tiote​
Santon Coloccini Taylor Debuchy​
Krul​
Interestingly that would take their french speaking players to 11 in their first team alone:eek: with 7 in the 4231 line up

Would be funny if they get relegated again with that team, Pardew's 7 year contract is already looking like a mistake. I don't understand why Newcastle are so poor this year compared to last? They've had injuries but that shouldn't make them drop from 5th to 16th.

One word. Cabaye.

The guy pulls strings and without him they're shit.

Deal Done! Signed for QPR! With M'villa on his way...

No idea how harry has done it, but hat's off to him, two fantastic players for very little money...
