If that's the limit of improvement we are looking for then we really won't be winning anything. What will improve us is Giroud coming on at 75 minutes with that much of the match played by a much better center forward.
I don't have a problem with Remy, infact I used to think he would be a great buy when he was at Marseille. He won't really improve us much though other than adding squad depth. We need a striker for the first team.

well most of us want to see us improved to actually win something like the league or champions league. the fact that giroud is still starting in your scenario means we won't be improving to that level. i don't want a simple improvement where we lose to chelsea at the bridge 2-1 instead of getting violated. i want us to actually go there and win (or at worse draw)... same for the other big away matches that we got bent over.

I'm guessing it's the Alexis half that make Remy acceptable. They don't come as a pair so signing Remy would be blaaaaa for me.
watching guys like Cuadrado, Alexis and James tear shirt up at the World Cup would leave us all with a blaaa feeling if Remy was our primary frontline signing

Exactly.
And signing Remy now would annoy me even more because if he's the striker Wenger wants then he should have signed him in January.
I think if we do take Remy it's because Wenger sees it as a safe option. Low fee, used to the league and should do ok. There aren't that many options out there. I mean Mandzukic might cost what, 20m? He's similar in style to Giroud and he might not perform a whole lot better than Remy. Can't wait for a Benzema type. Balotelli is a risk. If we get an Alexis type then I think Remy makes sense tbh.

Mirror saying we are close.
Remy, Alexis and Debuchy. Much better than I would have ever though. Add in any of Schneiderlin, Bender or Khedira and I would say its a perfect summer.
Any decent backup goalie and CB will do.
Remy and Debuchy are at best decent players.
Add two decent players to Sanchez and, hopefully, Khedira, and you're having a really, really good summer. Can't be denied.
The summer will be a failure unless we sign a top striker.
if we get remy, that means giroud starts. prob means podolski's gone as well, as it seems like a player too many in the front three.
don't really want him if it means poldi leaving.
klaus, if we land alexis, khedira/schneiderlin, and debuchy, there won't be an elite striker coming in. best make peace with moar zheerou next season
I've made peace with it since January. It is what it is.
And it will still have been an excellent summer. Top striker...we need one, yes, but Alexis and a CM takes our attack up few notches which is exactly what we need. Who knows, with those guys around him maybe Giroud would start to look like a top striker.
I'm all for this. Think he's a very dangerous striker
Yea I think Remy is a bit underrated on here.
No doubt in my mind that Wenger would be very interested in a Cavani, Benzema, Suarez etc if these blokes were available and/or attainable for us.
It's like when Chelsea bought Ba. Now we have two average strikers to choose from; better than nothing I guess. Not greatly enthused by our CF options though.
Maybe next summer...
