Demba Ba

[CahillsCornerFlag]

This is what I dont understand. I realise it happens often but how can a player let his agent basically decide which club he plays for. If he has a particular preference for a club he should be telling his agent that thats where he wants to go-not the other way around.

That's how it definitely should be, but an agent will look to gain the highest fee possible for his client (and himself, mainly). An extra 500.000k signing on fee/agent fee apiece is likely to tilt both of their heads. Money talks, sadly. Very few players would choose us over Newcastle in this situation I would say, even if they would rather play for us.

Edit: The only way I think he'll choose us is if Davey's been saying, look how often we've finished in Europe, and we're a good striker like yourself away from achieving that again, do you want to be part of this, etc.

Alright Kit, lid. I can see why you're so popular.

Try not to be so patronising.

Are you suggesting that we who don't agree with your unrealistic comparison don't know ****e about football..

We're obviously in the presence of a master here. Best just to bow to his superior knowledge.

Your argument is based on someone saying Beckford is better than Ba, I can't be arsed to read this whole thing, but has anyone actually said that?

No one said otherwise.. Not sure where you got that from.. You enjoy speaking for people?

I rate Beckford higher, actually. His movement, workrate, finishing ability are much better then Ba.
This should be good

"There is also another issue which complicated the transfer which will come to light at some stage but held up negotiations for a period of time."

Must be because our new owner has set better targets with Moylez.

If only! It's disappointing. I like him as a player, only time will tell if does indeed join the bigger club or the bigger offer. I wonder who plan B is??

If it's about 10k a week more at Newcastle then I don't see him picking us over them even if we are a bigger and better club, the thing is, he could go and score 20 goals at Newcastle and they'll still finish below us, so footballing wise he'd be making a bad decision, the bad part for us would be that those 20 goals could be the difference between 7th and 4th, if he decides to come to us it will be for all the right reasons so I will be quite pleased if it comes off, it would be a victory for football,in a sense.

If you go back and read the thread properly , some people where trying to compare there goal scoring records when ones is based on playing in league 1 , iam finished on this now put it to bed, we will wait and see next season where ever Demba Ba is playing how he compares to Beckford and just what levels there both on

 

[Alberto Fundirse]

I am agreeings. We have seens Ba over 13 games and he is the best player since Lineker. Last year we all knew who he is and we have all agreed he is the best player over last ten seasons in premierleagueship. No one ever has heard of Becksford since yesterdays.
