Remy's wage demands putting off suitors

[Shepherds Mush]

Dangerous game to play what with other clubs now showing interest in him, don't want to lose him to a club that'll guarantee him a starter every week.... 'IF' we keep Remy IMO it would be mad not to start both. We've got to play 2 up front.... They've got the very realistic potential of being one of the best partnerships in the premiership!!!

Absolutely spot on. 2 total goalscorers.

Agree it has the potential tb an exciting partnership but im concerned way too much is expected of austin in his first prem season. This division is littered with so many strikers who looked unplayable in the championship but never made it in the top flight. Remember danny graham and how he tore us apart at loftus rd and we were desperate to sign him? Now available for a million. Hooper did ok at norwich but was not considered the top player some talked him up to be. Or what about that leeds striker who we all salivated over who went to everton then disappeared? Im a fan of charlie and think he cd be a gd player but lets not over-burden him with expectation. If he gets into double figures next term in a team likely to be in or around the relegation zone it will be a major achievement. For remy-austin tb talked about as a top prem partnership they will, for instance, need to keep pace with van percy and rooney or wellbeck to give just one example. Things are looking a bit more optimistic on the transfer front but lets not be typical rangers and suddenly build ourselves up to be world beaters then get all suicidal when we lose the odd match by several goals, which is bound to happen quite a bit in our first season back.

Would love Remy and Austin upfront as long as the midfield is correctly balanced. Charlie would be dropped for certain games if we need be tighter. Because if we keep Remy he is the main man and can play down the middle all day long.

Mirror: Loic Remy's release clause revealed: £8.5m for top 4 clubs. £11m for 5th and 6th place. £15m for the rest of the league... from Twitter not sure how true..

There's a separate thread on this.

Gotta say totally agree. Austin had a great season for us but will now be playing in a likely struggling team, getting less chances and playing against top defenders week in week out.
