Demba Ba

[JozMan]

That's exactly what the side needed this term. Beckford and Saha could score absolutely sublime goals, but when real quality chances came about, they would fail miserably. I don't care how we score as long as we do...and in bunches as well

Totaly agree cant say it any simpler.

Trying hard not to get carried away and think we may sign someone before August.

Amen to that

Ai, quantity not quality in this instance!!

What's happenin' ???

 

[little curly alan ball]

Watched West Ham quite a bit last year (wife and father in law are fans!), if we can get him on the cheap as suggested I think he could be a great addition. Strong, quick and knows where the net is!

Waiting for LCAB update with some excitement.

Point is ; THIS is our moment .

The Lad knows what we've got . Brinkmanship , thus not a factor . Hence ; I CAN POST .

If he dont come this deal , he'll go elsewhere .

Its LOOKING Promising though ...

Carry on ...

One of those "realistic" targets I wanted by the end of the season. He's a finisher and an all rounder ie strength, power, pace etc.

Happy this is happening but knowing us well balls it up and hell be at sunderland at the end of it all. We may well throw yak into the deal haha

Next up, n'zogbia and ill be a happy camper.

BUT....Who we sold to fund this anyway?

He sort of worries me, if I'm honest. I just get the feeling that he won't play well for Everton.

He might not, but we know Anichebe won't, so it's worth the gamble.

For £6m I'm struggling to think of a decent alternative. Even Miroslav Klose hasn't scored at all recently.

 

[Ring master]

Demba Ba has a good goals to game scoring ratio Record [till he might come to us lol]

 

[Nordecke]

Stay positive Blue's..

You guys scream for a striker than question the one's we're linked with..

This is a good thing, you can quote me later

Putting aside the African proverbs, this sounds promising.

His record is really good:

2005–2006 Rouen 26 games (22 goals)
2006–2007 Mouscron 12 (8)
2007–2011 1899 Hoffenheim 97 (37)
2011– West Ham United 12 (7)
National team‡
2007– Senegal 10 (3)

He's better than 1 in 2 for most of the sides he's played for and he's not long since turned 26. According to Wiki he also failed a medical for Stuttgart in 2009. They say that he's a West Ham player and any deal would be with them rather than Hoffenheim.

 

[when i score we riot]

Didn't he try to go to Stoke but failed the medical before West Ham got him?

He has skill, defo, but there is something fishy going on. We don't really need another injury prone striker, do we? Man, i just wish we could find someone young and amazing, like felli. Isn't there another chicharito somewhere?
