I think he's been reading this forum far too much. (Hello Luke, you tosser.)
This bit in particular is load of rubbish-
"Ba responded superbly, but Cisse has struggled. The two Senegal teammates have never been close, but their relationship has been increasingly strained in recent months. There have even been accusations Ba would rather shoot from distance than pass to Cisse, even if he is in a far better position."
He's been shooting from long-range lately yes, but I'm not sure it is because he's ignoring Cisse.
