POTL also put on the Remy thread that we are actively trying to buy 2 strikers or words to that effect
Would one be Ade though?

Adebayor and Remy
How the feck can we afford Messi, I'm sorry that's just bull. The Goat trying to make himself look big. What a load of bollox.............. Oh it's cryptic, mmm, I wonder what it means?
If that's the case, I'd still feel we were a striker light. Doesn't sound like Remy can lead the line like Adebayor so we'd still need someone else who can do that (and I don't think Saha or Defoe meet that requirement).
Saha will still be here in my opinion. Defoe wont
So that would be Saha Remy Adebayor and VDV
Not too shabby

If they are the only two we're after I feel a little underwhelmedAdebayor and Remy
I don't get why we want Remy - he's not the lethal striker we crave by any stretch of the imagination. Cost - excess of £20m? Sounds like the next Bentley/Bent - a waste of money.
Hasn't the Montpellier striker Giroud got a reported buy out clause of approx £10m? Plus we've been linked with Adam Johnson ... we could potentially end up with a quality striker and a back up winger for less than Remy.
I read Giroud's buy out clause is around £16m, similar to Huntelaar's
You can request it, but we can't make any promises. If POTL comes out with a cryptic all we can do is report it. What I can tell you however is that The Goat undertakes not to post anything so cryptic that it could mean anything. For example, we'd keep any cryptic on a basic level so that most of SC could understand it. if The Goat wanted to say we're signing Messi, he'd say something like "We're signing Messi' and let you figure it out, if you can

he certainly played well this season, but that's just one season. he mostly featured in lower divisions before that. it would be a bit like splashing 16m on marlon king... too risky.
Vertonghnen and Remy would go a long way to getting our transfer window sorted.
Add to that someone like Hoilett and Ade on a perm deal late on once he realises that no-one is willing/able to pay his wages at the rate he wants and i'd be very happy with that as our incoming business.
I'm actually just as interested on our outgoing business this window, by my accounts there are at least 14 players we should be shifting on this window in same way or other.
