Alan Pardew feels the 2014 World Cup will be the perfect motivation for Loic Remy to score a plethora of goals for Newcastle United.
The 26-year old striker has joined the Toon on a season-long loan from QPR and Pardew hopes he can produce his best form at club level as he looks to force his way into the France squad for Brazil next year.
"Loic is a great player and I'm delighted that Joe has got him on board for us," said Pardew.
"He'll be a great addition to the squad, he gives us strength and pace up front and I'm sure he'll bring plenty of goals.
"It's a big season for Loic, like it is for all our international players ahead of the World Cup, which will only provide extra incentive for him to play at the very top of his game."
