Loic Remy in the back of the van

If we get Sanchez and Debuchy sorted this week and a quality CM too then I think Wengers better off seeing who's available as the summer progresses than signing Remy now.

If we're looking at a pl striker, I would rather sign Bony.

Remy sucks, we won't sign him. He has few of the qualities you want in a CL-level #9. Hoping Wenger signs someone like Morata with real potential if we can't get anyone else. No point in bothering with mediocre players anymore.

morata is most likely going to juve

Kel Varnsen

Unless we're selling Podolski, there's no need for Remy. He'd be at best an option off the bench.

Daily Mail reporting that this move is being held up by his wages demands. Now I like him as a player but he can get stuffed if he's being unreasonable

Jed

Why are we even going for him? Bang average player.

Qwiss

Remy and Debuchy. Next up Shola Ameobi.

I'd prefer a Debuchyesque RB than a Remyish striker.

lorddulaarsenal

Think he gets a raw deal here. Registers frequently, has serious pace and can play a bit

Gazza M

he's wiltord level, and I think I'm being slightly generous there

Shiieeeeeet - Wiltord accomplished plenty 🙂

Klaus

He could have been Wiltord level if he'd applied himself better.

Possibly, I get the impression that he's a bit of a waster.

Armor

Worst case scenario he flops and we sell him to Newcastle or someone next summer for a similar fee. Best case is he proves a better fit than Giroud and we have two decent strikers.

Our record in getting rid of rubbish strikers is verrry poor.

Are you saying he doesn't understand the offside rule?

He's got pace, he can finish, I quite like him. 14 goals in 26 games for that Newcastle team is pretty good, I think. If we're getting Sanchez, I think he makes some kind of sense as alternative- not every signing has to be top of the range quality. Besides which, perhaps he has something in him just waiting for le prof to get out of him.

Also, he is an Arsenal fan, apparently, so I imagine he would be extra motivated to do well for us.

Remy wouldn't improve us in the sense that we'd win trophies with him that we wouldn't win without him or place any higher in the league. As such, this is a pointless signing and a waste of money. Giroud, Sanchez and Walcott are better options up front. Maybe even Podolski. Out wide we have 5-6 better options.

Now that we finally have money and are showing some ambition, filling up the squad with more average players makes no sense. We don't need quantity, we need quality.

I think he fit us better than Giroud so totally disagree that.
