Being serious I'm quite happy with this news. Injury was a big concern and I'm personally of the opinion that if we are to sign attacking reinforcements they have to be of real proven quality and good enough to challenge for a start right away. I'd draw the line just below Malcom.

Honestly kind of glad this didn't happen as the jokes would have been mind numbing..

So much for our €26m bid... I imagine we scouted him and enquired as a back up with little more interest if any at all in the first place. At 25 and with two serious knee injuries there is no way we would have been serious for any where near that fee. Good luck to him and hopefully he can put those injuries behind him and carry on his form. Don't feel like we are missing out here but would have been a good signing for a Palace or Fulham.

Good for him since it sounded like that was the move he wanted. I don't think we will lose any sleep over not getting him. Was a very weird saga that blew up crazy quick and who knows how much of anyone's interest in him was real versus opportunistic.

Seems to be just another player we are linked with for whatever reason by the media or his agent. We get loads of these every window.

Same as Remy really, a player who had bad injuries and a poor fitness record, but seemed to score every time he was needed to for Chelsea, and did well at Newcastle too.

I'm glad we've not bought him, but even more glad he's not in the PL
