No. Just no. Not Chelsea quality. A Liverpool-level signing.

Just give the man what he wants! It isn't often you can bring in a beast of a player like Ba for this cheap. He'd be a £20m transfer were it not for the knee which hasn't been a problem in quite a while now. By the end of the week, please!

Would be awesome to smash the bastards. Then we can hear the end of how we were "lucky" to win at the Emirates earlier this season.

Knew that wouldn't last long.

I'd prefer Ba to Negredo. Don't see him really pushing Torres out of the first XI.

QPR will have the game of their lives now, watch.

True.And like I saw someone else in here say the other day, we deserve a bit of credit for being so close to City and United who each have 4 elite strikers while we have one gimp striker. IF ONLY FUCKING CLATTENBURG HADN'T FUCKED US!

More like they play shit frequently but still win. They can look dire against awful sides or at home but have RvP to bail them out time after time.

THAT is why we need Falcao. Torres would've tripped over himself and the ball would've gone out of play.

Chicharito has to have the most punchable face in the league. The bastard doesn't ever score any pretty goals, just camps the line and scores tap ins just like that. Hate him.

United and City won't. Really hope Arse and Spuds do. They usually look average without Bale.

Looks like they let one of their 8 year old fans design the kit for winning a contest.

Fulham's kit today is shocking. Horrid.

FUCK! A groin injury is nothing to mess with. Get well ASAP, Petr!

Yeah, Taison is still a puzzling transfer rumor. I've still yet to even see him play and I watch a ton of football. Paulinho would be surplus to what we have but is quality. I'd gladly take him. I'm still foolishly holding out hope for 1 big name transfer.

"He's big! He's black! Two letters on his back! Demba Ba! Demba Ba!" Is that a real chant that their fans sing or is that just made up on the Internet?

When all signs point to a Chelsea thrashing, wouldn't surprise me to see a drab 0-0 draw. Though if a 1-man Liverpool team who were thrashed by Villa who we beat 8-0 can beat this lot, we should win comfortably.

2 years of Torres has made us hungry for anyone.Doesn't hurt that we may be getting one of this seasons leading goal scorers.

I was hoping I wasn't the only person to respond to that. Torres has a worse first touch than I do and I haven't touched a football in years.

If this goes ahead hopefully Rafa puts him to good use right away and doesn't wait until things go to shit before Demba becomes first choice. I honestly can't wait to see Ba in our shirt. People were saying there'd be no way we could afford Falcao and Fellaini, but if we get Ba for extremely cheap, who's to say we can't get Fellaini now?

Will indeed be a good signing if he joins. Should thrive here if he stays injury-free.

Very anxious about this one. I had a nightmare that Torres missed a sitter again to cost us the game. This is a statement game. Are we a serious contender or not? We'll have won at the Emirates, at WHL, and at Goodison with a game in hand if we can pull this one off. I'd say being in the top 3 with a game in hand and BEFORE the transfer window opens while having only 1 striker on the roster is pretty impressive. But we MUST win this one. Would be a huge morale boost for player and supporter alike.

Hopefully our boys realize the importance of this match and blitz Everton from the start. I'd be well and truly gutted if we lost after the results today.

Wow. Every team around us is gonna win today. Yet another must win for us tomorrow.

We can beat them then buy their best player next week.
