Demba Ba

This guy slightly lessons the blow of sturridge. He is better than Torres, but thats not difficult. If it's confirmed i hope he succeeds. Would have cost 20 Mil had he not had this clause so good signing.

I know it sound a bit idiot, but Didier Drogba has the same mentality , when he scored that goal the first thing he did was ? Same thing for Ba.

This is the signing I wanted. Good striker, excellent value and cheap enough where if he doesn't work out, he only cost you 15% of Torres and you can move on.

Demba BA and just 7m what a great signing!

sign him ASAP becouse we're really need a striker " Real Man " not Torres!

[Styles 9,790]

Fingers crossed we get this done asap.

[zolayes 14,489]

get it done at once

So, if everything goes really fast, can he play wednesday?

I get the feeling that the people who feel 'he's not good enough for a top club like Chelsea' are the same people who thought Moses wouldn't be good enough.

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?

very good deal but lewandowski is better : (

[Mufassir08 2,400]

The midweek game's will tell us how close he is to joining us.If he starts for newcastle then it might take a bit more time and if he is not in the squad then its a done deal.

I hope we can get it sorted really quick this time. Don't want this to drag around like the Cahill transfer. Bearing in mind how urgent our board is, he'll be signed on deadline day.

Proven PL scorer in good form. Perfect.

i was not paying much attention to this thread because i thought we would probably go after some 30-40mil striker but after reading some of the postd here, it seems the deal is real close!!! is that really so?? any good sources? BA would be a great inclusion and for 7.5 mil, i think a real bargain!!

Did we sign him? Because people here are talking like if he's already signed.

Nope, haven't even made a bid yet, although with the buy out clause it's merely a formality if we agree a deal with the player and his agent. Considering the fact that he's failed two medicals in the last three years makes it hard to get excited before the deal is finalized by Chelsea. Personally I'd be more than willing to take the chance even with the injury record but the club may not think the same...

7mil for him? I wouldnt wait a minute. Get him!
