Demba Ba

[SinineUltra 1,170]

Even if it's just until summer, it doesn't seem that bad a deal. I imagine we could probably flog him for at least £5 million in the summer and the one thing he does is score goals.

There's a myth we don't create chances - I think we simply need a short-term poacher like him or Bent just to get us to the end of the season.

Exactly.. we need a poacher.. a striker, who is there to tap it in... not a forward,who helps to link play up, but isn't there to put the final touch as in scoring

I think he is also capable of making his own chances and taking them. All the talk of Torres not getting the right service - he cost £50m and can't even create his own chances!

I wouldn't look at Ba as a short term option. He's only 27 and we could protect his knees by not playing him all the time. He would provide significant depth in our strikeforce for a few seasons.

A strikeforce next season of Lukaku, Ba and another (top striker) sounds so much stronger than the shite we have this year!

Well his knees might be a problem but if he is in form then its worth the risk.My concern is that he blows hot and cold,he hardly scored in the 2nd half of last season.

Being shunted to the left wing didn't help.

Yeah good point.

Well, I've heard Walcott's name being thrown around a fair bit, and I would would take Demba Ba any day over Walcott.

I would have demba ba over torres even if he was only allowed to use one leg.

At the moment I would take ANY striker ahead of Torres. Hell, I would even chose to have a rock in the box so we could shoot the ball on the rock into the goal. I bet the rock would have better finish than Torres.

Same kind of Situation as Anelka from Bolton

Sign him up

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

Just scored his 2nd of the night

[Hutcho 8,443]

OH HOW I WISH WE HAD A HALF DECENT SRIKER.

[Yasser 63]

£7-10m and he will sign for Chelsea, please Roman sign him up ASAP!

[OneMoSalah 8,776]

Warming to the idea of signing him, 11 goals so far this season I think. Only problem is he goes to ACN in January I think...

Nah, Senegal aren't in it.

Sign him up then! 7 or 7.5 mil release clause plus he guarantees you 10-15 goals per season. Him, Walcott and Pjanic (since we are linked with both Walcott & Pjanic) in = brilliant window.

[OReillyD36 311]

Knowing our luck, that whole "dodgy" knee will rear its ugly head if we sign him

We clearly need more than that.

Not a fan of this guy.
