Gutted if that goes through.
He'll be worth £30m inside a year. |  |

Borini got 2 goals 24 matches last season, and sold for 14 million. Remy must be worth double that, think Rodgers has got himself a bargain. All that money he got for the liability Rat Suarez and he got Lambert and Remy and about £50 million in the bank. |  | | |

I'd say them getting £14m for Borini is bloody good business actually. Remy and a £6m profit? Excellent days work for Liverpool that. |
You're right, I'm dumb! Forgot he was liverpools player and only on loan to them last year, thought lpool were spending 14 for borini doh |  | | |

Is it so difficult to understand that without the release clause we would not have signed Remy. We took a gamble on his wages to keep us up that is all we have lost.
As a rider I am still unsure of a release clause but if he does go for £8/10M I will accept it exists. |  | | |

I fully understand a release clause being in place covering the possibility that we get relegated. What I don't understand is why they would let such a clause exist that wasn't negated by us returning to or staying in the Prem. | |

Oversight I should imagine.
Does seem a little naïve.
From what I read Liverpool are still negotiating a number of options.
It aint over yet and wouldn't be surprised if he puts on a hooped shirt again. | | | |

We have "lost" all the potential profit.
Whoever brokered that original deal was an idiot.
imho of course. |  |

Good point.
Its difficult to have an opinion unless you calculate whole picture.
How much we paid for him?
Did Newcastle pay £2.00 million fee to loan him?
Did Newcastle pay all his wages during loan?
Are we really paying him £80k a week since 1st June to play for France and negotiate with every club in the top six to get out of here?
I say unless he turns up for work on Monday, fine him a months wages. | | | |

£14 million for Borini £8 million for Remy cant believe that are we that stupid
Merci Monsieur Remy for gracing us with your presence F'ing mercenary of the highest order |  | | |

We all knew that he was using us to prove himself in the Premier League - if it wasn't for the rape charge he would have gone before the start of last season. At least he will be off the wage bill and we will be getting back the fee we originally paid for him. Without the release clause he wouldn't have joined us in the first place. |  |

He's no Luis Suarez. Don't want him if he doesn't want to be here, which he obviously doesn't. |  | | |

That sums it up. Thank God!
I'm glad someone has summed it up in a quick post. We can bump John's post every time this gets mentioned. |  |

I said on another thread that 'QPR has made mistakes' but if Remy goes to the 'Self Pity City' for £8M then our owners/CEO need to take a long hard look at themselves.
I have just read that the lightweight Liverpool striker is going to Sunderland for £14m?
Any idiot can tell you Remy is proven and is worth more than £8M?
Once again we say we have learned by our mistakes but have we really? | | | |

I think the thing with Remy coming here originally was he held literally all the cards in the negotiations. He had other Premier League clubs interested and we were clearly fcked and highly, highly likely to be relegated. Why would he come here unless we caved in to lots of his demands? Hence a release clause that's very heavily weighted in his favour. |  | | |

Eh? He scored 10 in total last season and they weere all very important. That said £14m is f*cking mental even if he is only 23
not sure why Remy is going for so cheap relatively but hey, I wish him no ill. He's a good player and done well wherever he's gone including in our last horrible season in the PL so good luck to him...as long as he doesn't score against us mind |  |

It's only £8.5m because it's his release clause for Champions league team. I doubt he would have signed for us in the first place without assurance of a lowish release clause. The sliding clause seems reasonable, it would've been £10m+ for Europa league teams, and whatever we want for teams with no continental football. If he'd gone to Newcastle, Fernandes and co. would've wanted upwards of £15m.
The clause doesn't make him a mercenary in my eyes. I think people need to be realistic about the size of our club. He signed for us in January '13, we'd won 2 games all season at that point, were bottom of the table and had generally been dreadful. He's an international footballer, who had previously played for one of the biggest teams in France! We were desperate for a striker, and paid over the odds in wages (arguably) and had to do whatever was necessary to bring him in (the release clause). It was a risk. Remy clearly tried his best when he was with us, but realistically we were always seen by him as a stepping stone to a bigger club.
Edit - Clive got in there ahead of me, I agree with everything he said. [Post edited 19 Jul 2014 18:13]

1) Money is key in all contract negotiations not loving a club or kissing a badge when you score.
2) The sooner he goes the better then we can lick and sharpen the pencil tip and sign another minge with a release clause. |  |

2.5 mill of Newcastle
8.5 of Liverpool
80k a week of the wage bill
And all for a player who didn't want to be at QPR for the last 12 months we still got some classy goals of remy and he did add some points to the season far well remy good luck
Will bring two players in on Remy wages alone [Post edited 19 Jul 2014 18:32]

Was suprised he only came off the bench for France twice during the WC, and had expected him to do better goal wise at Newcastle. The rape charge and drink driving conviction didn't help his cause either.
He could have been good with us, I think he may be lost at Liverpool. If he dont want to play in Hoops best place for him is elsewhere. No grudge, adios Remy. NEXT! |  | | |
| Remy on 18:59 - Jul 19 with 1992 views | 1MoreBrightonR |
One simple question ....would Remy have signed for us instead of Newcastle without a hefty release clause. We all know the answer and thought it was worth it at the time. Its great in hindsight to say we shouldn't have done it but he never would have signed for us if we hadn't. Simple. | | | |
