Good morning pop pickers.
And the hits just keep on coming. The Loic Remy piece of yesterday appears to have legs as a French journo, Matt Spiro who writes for Ligue.1.com has revealed that…
Marseille have told Loic Remy to cancel his planned visit to Spurs’ training ground this week. They want to agree fee with
#THFC first
This positively reaffirms the idea that we are ‘properly’ in for the player, but it also rather comically might indicate that they’ve just found out who our chairman is and want to get all the money side of things nailed before their boy starts choosing this coat peg.
Elsewhere, if you haven’t seen it then the Blackburn boss is the unwitting star of a covertly shot mobile phone video that is said to have been shot in a bar in Hong Kong while Rovers were doing their preseason. The clip is here. The interesting bit is where he’s asked about Sam Allardyche. He swiftly repsonds, “Because he’s a f*cking crook.”
Reported yesterday he’s out injured for a month:

Possibly good news, at least if you want the deal to go through. Will reduce the risk that his club will want to hold out until after the Euros to do a deal, hoping for a few top goals to inflate his market value.
Remy looks like a decent enough player but who’s place in our current squad does he replace? I cant see him holding the line if we dont keep adebayor!?
We need a powerhouse upfront who can hold the ball up when were playing one up front reimy isn’t that player hes very clever but injury prone with a huge huge ego
With Defoe and adebyebye leaving we need 2 more quality strikers I’m not sure where the money would or will come from to buy the likes of a damaio or lloriente who can both play the lone role .why do we spend 2 years watching players grow in stature and price for us to then miss out on them to yes bigger clubs its pathetic
I’d let modric go happily he is in my opinion easier to replace than bale ,Erasmus elm would do for me
We were never going to get eden hazard to high profile so we should buy younes belhanda from Montpelier less off a profile just now .
I would not be surprised tho if Harry does another bassong/pienaar/palacios and buys mousse dembele
Remy = can score with his head.
How many headed goals did we score this year?
Very good point. We desperatly need someone good in the air. Whats the point of having the best wingers in the league without a centre forward who cant head the ball. For fecks sake we got Joe Jordan and Sir Les cant they teach our forwards to head a ball.
You can’t teach cowards to be brave!!!
Usually because our big man is out on the wing or dropping deep to create. I’ve seen Bale put in crosses and he has every right to expect someone on the end of them, no one busting a gut to get in the middle
If this deal happens cant say it blows my mind, but i also never knew who Berbatov was and he did ok for us until his head got bigger than his talent.
Gutted, he was such a great player for us, instead preferred to go and warm a bench at United! Can never understand players sometimes…never look beyond the pay packet :-(
