Demba Ba

[Waterfall 893]

How's this for a first touch? Torres wouldn't even be near the ball

[Cripen 110]

Everyone complaining about his knee but is he was injured since he joined Newcastle? I dont think he have too many problems with that knee recently.

He's good in the air, could finish crosses from Azpi and the others.

@TekkaBooSon: Is it true that Chelsea CAN'T activate Ba's release clause, as it has to be a team currently in the CL?

Is anyone really complaining though? To me it looks more like people are acknowledging the fact that there is a slight risk in buying Ba but I haven't seen many saying that the risk isn't worth taking.

[Sheva. 5,373]

I've been saying we don't have many options, so i would not mind him.

Been informed by sources very close to #cfc that Demba Ba having a scan tomorrow #nufc

Works for Sky

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.

class is permenant

Scan = Medical?

[Kieran. 6,317]

Still think we need another striker - Ba is cup-tied for EL and CoC.

Scan = Medical?

The medical will prob include a MRI on his problematic knee.

[DH1988 1,199]

Finally we buy epl proven !! On current good form

If he becomes one third of the player Big D was for us I'll be a happy man.

the chant " who let the Ba out " doesnt sound as good

[DoubleO 192]

Ok, it looks like we will get him. That's fine for me - especially if the rumours about his buy-out clause are true. He's a proven player in the PL, he's a very good goal scorer and he offers a different option to what Torres can provide. The only thing that worries me are his injuries, but that's not the first time when Chelsea sign a injury prone player. Our medical staff have done fantastic work with Torres for example.

he will probably fail it. But we will buy anyway

[Leif 6,006]

Suddenly don't feel confident about getting him.

Apparently he's actually constantly in talks with lots of clubs as he has some of the worst agents in football who're just trying to get lots of cash.

The clubs he is in talks with don't pay much. We will have to overpay a bit, but it will be something from 40k to 50k per weak, nothing really major.

He will be on around 80k a week, 20k more than Sturridge.
