Loic Remy anyone?

The revelations in the Sunday Sun yesterday about how the club are looking at an international target will surely start off some guessing games.

People are going to be wondering just who is in mind after the press left that little worm tentatively dangling, so with it being the season of speculation I think we should have a look at who this mystery international could be, purely for a bit of fun of course.

It could be anyone thought couldn't it? I mean there are plenty of international strikers out there, although thankfully, Mark Douglas has give out some cryptic clues to help us piece together the puzzle. Apparently said target is based where 90% of our targets are, has a similar goalscoring record to Kevin Gameiro, is roughly the same age as Kevin Gameiro and is interesting a few clubs.

Step forward Loic Remy, who matches all of the criteria above. A few comments have mentioned him as a possibility, and I have to say it's a pretty good shout as he is one who fits the clues that Mark Douglas left. Same age? Check. Same nationality? Check. Same goalscoring record? Check, well almost. Anyway, you get the point.

He isn't the only one it could be though. Moroccan international Youssef El-Arabi is another one who is about the same age with a similar goalscoring record to Gamiero so perhaps it could be him? Mevlüt Erdinç is another one who would fit the bill. We've been linked with both of those before aswell.

Of course it could just as easily turn out to be someone that we haven't even considered, although I wouldn't go as far as suggesting someone like Mario Gomez as some have suggested. And people wonder why we get labelled as deluded? 😆

So yes, this is one for the 'dreamers' amongst us, the speculation lovers, the transfer tittle-tattlers, so please feel free to suggest away. In the interests of balance though, for the 'realists' amongst us, there is only 79 days of transfer speculation remaining before we sell all of our players and the window slams shut, which is just one day before a catastrophic string of events ensures that the world is knocked off it's orbit and gets dragged towards the sun ensuring a slow and painful death for us all.

There ya go. Something for everyone on NUFC Blog ;)
