Think he's a steady striker who'll get a few goals - (12-14) would be a qualifyied success. Nobody on here thinks he's world class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Do you think he will be competition for Cisse rather than starting alongside him? Personally I think Pardew will stick to 4231 and don't see Gomis playing either side of him. Remy however would thrive in that role. Him and Ben Arfa either side of Cisse excites me. Gomis and Gouffran off the bench. Keeping key players fresh with good rotation options is most likely going to help get the most of our players. More goals too. We hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StellarStripes 0 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) There is one flaw in that mouth watering suggestion, Pardew! The narrow minded people with shit memories might share that view. Look back past last season. I've faith that Pardew has learned and is better for it. He's openly admitted fault for his tactics last year. I have faith that he will get it right this year.

Gejon 2 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 A French Kenwyne Jones? Still am glad we seem to be doing something.. was getting worried that January's signings were the summers budget. Lazy comparison, oww he's black, quite big and has dreads. Who can I liken him to? Gomis scored something like 20 in 44 last season. He has 3 in 10 for France. Jones has scored 13 in 81 games since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitman 2204 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Sounds like this fella is a big target man. Presumably we've now replaced Andy Carroll so we can launch long balls out of defence to The BIg Lad upfront. I suppose if we sign Remy as well that will give us more options.....instead of the long ball to the target man we can play the long ball into the channels for Remy to run onto. I'm not sure how Cisse fits in, cos we played a lot of long balls to him last season and he wasn't very good at it. Maybe he'll be there for the flicks ons and knock downs from the long balls.

acrossthepond 874 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Gomis wouldn't have been my first choice, but I'm pleased enough if this comes off. Cisse has been crying out for a strike partner for months now and hopefully Gomis will pair well with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeithJ 0 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Spoke to a lad in work who is based in Paris. He says he is a very good player. A bit lazy however he will get you goals. Reckoned he was a bit of a Darren Bent style player. He also told me he loves a good toe poked goal as well. Same lads has been right about every player that has came our way. I personally think Gomis will be a good signing but I would rather Remy, Cisse and Ben Arfa in attack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 99 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 We can't just have 2 forwards. People asking what happens to gouffran or Cisse etc if we bring two in. It's what we need. AP said gouffran may play more centrally. Getting Gomis gives us a target man players like Cisse and Remy if we get him can play off. But late in the game we would likely change it. Campbell might go out on loan and shola away I'd imagine. So we would have 4 hopefully of Gomis, Gouffran, Cisse and Hopefuly Remy. I'm more curious about midfield if we are going 442 who is getting dropped or played out of position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I think Campbell is good enough to stay. He's certainly got the pace & movement to be effective. I really just don't see the obsession with having to send a player out on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I think he can be effective enough to get his chance to develop here - that's all I'm saying. Fair enough some players have to go out on loan to get experience but I think Campbell should given till january to prove himself. Scottish football isn't of a high enough quality to really test him.

The Fish 10779 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 If we had a deeper squad, I could see him getting more games, but frankly the abuse Pardew got for fielding weak sides in the cups will force his hand this time around. Half a season at somewhere like St Mirren would be good for Campbell imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
