Demba Ba

Everytime I've watched him he's been brilliant. Destroying Rio Ferdinand tonight. As good a centre forward as any other out there at the moment imo.
 

Demba Ba

A superb player, I bet Pulis is regretting turning him down for Stoke because of his 'ticking time bomb' knees.
 

Demba Ba

His movement is just fantastic - you can't mark him.
 

Demba Ba

good interview with him before the match. Can also be seen on sky sports website. Funny guy
 

Demba Ba

Superb tonight as was the whole Toon team. Bet Fergie would like Coloccini?
 

Demba Ba

had a brilliant scoring record in Germany.. pleased for him..
 

Demba Ba

Had just put him in my fantasy football team without thinking about African Cup of Nations. At least he earned a few points last night. Looked very sharp

Yeah, I think we should make a cheeky bid for him. He may just solve our goal scoring problems.:D
 

Demba Ba

Won the bottle of champers last night - a bit insensitive of SKY tbh - A soda stream and some strawberry syrup would have gone down better :moo:
 

Demba Ba

I keep waiting for him to go on a massive streak of not scoring
 

Demba Ba

He was superb last night but let's face it even Clayton would have a hatfull against manure's sh*t defence. they even managed to score agianst themselves
 

Demba Ba

has a buy out clause of £10M.. rumours that he's on his way out... Pardew spitting featherslol
 

Demba Ba

The local Newcastle United reporter mentioned £7 mill. That's a figure where a club can start talks. Not a transfer fee in stone.
 

Demba Ba

because of his knee, rumours he's on pay as you pay aswell.. where are you Liverpool??
 

Demba Ba

£10m would be good business, big risk that the African cup matches with poor pitches might do for his knees and/or form.
 

Demba Ba

Great bit of business especially selling Liverpool a dud for twelve millon
 

Demba Ba

According to rumour, he is in line for a £2m loyalty bonus (it only be £2, but you know how the media like to exagerate ;) )

How do you get a loyalty bonus for leaving halfway through a season with 18 months left on your contract?

It's reported that the transfer fee is £7.5 mill plus!! £3 mill to the agents.....so £10.5 mill. But! Demba Ba wants 25% of the agents £3 mill = £750k....

Loyalty bonsuses are something which exists at most football clubs these days and are for players who are transffered without formally requesting a transfer.

I would guess that BA refused to sign for Newcastle without a loyalty bonus and a minimum release clause.
 

Demba Ba

More fool Newcastle for siging such a one sided contract with him, one story was the £7m included some £2.5m due to his agent so they pick up only about £5m, who knows what's true.

If he signs for Chelsea he will play second fiddle to Torres and be on the bench most of the time, presumably giving him plenty of time to count his money.
 

Demba Ba

Newcastle played the gamble on Demba Ba and the deal apparently was set up so it was loaded in favour of Ba producing the goods. Low Outlay, high rewards, etc.

Story goes, Stoke were due to sign him from West Ham for something like 300k and Pulis' medical team told him that Demba Ba's knees were shot and only a matter of time he was gonna be a sicknote when he went for the pre signing medical.

Newcastle were short of options and took a punt and got a bargain, but Demba Ba and his agent confident of little risk and Ba's ability insisted on clauses put into his contract for the player if he succeeded he was richly rewarded. Cue today's stuff.

Being fair 15 odd goals by last Christmas was his reward to his pot of gold. Another good showing this year and regular scorer in a struggling side has earnt him and his agent a bounty.

The ones who must be screwing are Stoke, bounced Ba on medical grounds and took on Owen this year! :laugh:
 

Demba Ba

Probably a good move for him financially, but less good for his career as I doubt if he'll start many games (assuming Roman insists on Torres playing),

That's incorrect.

Ba had trails as a teenager/early 20's with Barnsley, Watford and French clubs from Ligue1 & 2. All turned him down. A lower league French club signed him up. He got a move to Hoffenheim, this is where Stoke City rejected him from, because of his knees (scar tissue), a £6 mill plus fee was agreed. Ba left Hoffenheim to go to West Ham on a Free.
 

Demba Ba

................what a waste of money................
 

Demba Ba

He worried me before the game but we nullified him
completely today. As for his personalised mask....give me strength !
 

Demba Ba

Thought he was unfit to be honest....
 

Demba Ba

could be on his way to the Arse...
