Window Cleaner Posted 2 August, 2013 Share Posted 2 August, 2013 (edited) nobody will pay 15 million for Loic Remy, loaned to the Toon as likely as not Edited 2 August, 2013 by Window Cleaner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted 2 August, 2013 Share Posted 2 August, 2013 He was reputedly on £70,000 pw at QPR. They paid £8M for him. He has not certainly not doubled in value after six goals in just 14 games for QPR. If convicted he will be put in jail,for a long time. If innocent then great, but until then what person would not have mental issues with that hanging over them though- guilty or innocent? So imo he is not worth £8Million to QPR at all right now. He's worth "get rid" at any price and get his wages off the payroll too, despite what arry says. Why would anyone pay anything for a player that could soon be in prison? Value plummets overnight (and already has done by association) - sponsorship marketing PR image rights- all in massively minus territory....not only for player but for club that owns player. He should play for free for a club like us until and if proved innocent - then we could talk a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would £15m not be better spent trying to land Lukaku from Chelsea? As Chelsea paid £10m (rising to £17m) for Lukaku, I would suggest they'd want more than £15m. Considering he has 3 years on his contract and the goals he scored last year, they'd want closer to £20m, and then he'd have to want to come here. One season at a club like WBA is fine, but Europe is where he probably wants to play... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 2 August, 2013 Share Posted 2 August, 2013 There's thousands of strikers in the world - I'd rather we signed one of them.

shurlock Posted 2 August, 2013 Share Posted 2 August, 2013 Excellent player - £8m is a steal - would give us pace and movement we lack. Thought he battled till the end for QPR.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 2 August, 2013 Share Posted 2 August, 2013 FFS , he is a half decent player. Just because Redknapp signed him does not make £8 million too much money. What makes it too much money is the allegations hanging over him. IF and its a ****ing big if, we could negotiate a loan deal with an option to buy if he's cleared,and a cancellation if he's guilty, it would represent a half decent deal, or a free with a realease clause if found guilty, so he costs FA. Unless qpr do some sort of deal , they're going to get lumbered with him as as you'll be completely off your head to pay any sort of money for him.
