Hutcho 8,443 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I am still pissed off about yesterdays blow but an announcement fully confirming it though i am pretty sure it will be done would soften the blow somewhat and i would love to see him insta start over torres.

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 What a dealSecond this - forget his knees, he has proven over the past couple of seasons he can play and train with no problems.To have been able to sign a player arguably in his prime, proven goalscorer in the Premier League for £7m in January is a steal!Just consider how much strikers have moved for between English clubs in recent seasons like Fletcher, Bent, Carroll and Torres and this screams value for money.

Fulham Broadway 17,313 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Having a medical. Not sure he will fit in with our style. Overall he will cost the club about £20m if reports of him earning £75,000 a week are true. We only got around £12m for Sturridge and some of that City get. He can't play in the Europa League and for the three and half year contract very possibly will be missing for the 3 January's if Senegal qualify for the African Nations. On top of that, he will be 31 when his contract is up so will therefore leave for nothing. So, the club payout £20m and get no financial return.In Buck/Emenalo we trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the club payout £20m and get no financial return.In Buck/Emenalo we trustIt would be an even bigger outlay for Falcao who is less than a year younger than Ba, so similarly would offer little future funancial return. Its clear we needed a couple more players in their mid/late 20's (peak) to help the balance within the squad and to big somebody up who fits this bracket, and is proven in the Prem for the price mentioned is good business.If Torres was firing we could look at bringing in another young striker alongside Lukaku for the future to take over from Torres but at this moment we need someone for the present who has the best opportunity to come in and perform immediately.

We sold a player who was on an expiring contract and wasn't being used whilst replacing him with one of the top scorers in the league shoring up the weakest position in our team.Don't see a downside to this deal.

From the Senegal I've seen outside of their attacking power they are too terrible to having a good chance of consistently going.At most I see him missing 1 January for that.

And Senegal are not exactly a good side that can qualify every time. City get a little under 2m from us for Sturridge. His fee effectively covers the Ba signing with some change left, and Ba will only make 15k more than he did - if that figure you posted is right.

If we end up signing Cavani/Falcao etc to replace Torres in 6 months time - you can expect Ba to throw his toys out like he did at Hoffenheim and Newcastle Anyhow hope he scores a bucket load during the next 6 months allowing us to qualify for the CL, if he does that than all other scepticism will go out of the window - sadly we will need to play Torres in the Europa League Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
