Not here to fucking care about if this was a red or penalty. We got some luck, we scored. Now lets kick on man.
-
KICK on. ATTACK THEM.

My heart was fucking pulling out of my chest man

Feel like this is the longest 1 hour buildup in ages. (after team was announced)
-
Yep, C'mon Sylvie man, get it done tonight.

closet hoofball fancier? http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/400x/28175738.jpg Less than an hour!

ESPN3 for me today. Watching it in my office.

Ujpest Mendoza had the scoop

closet hoofball fancier? Aye, proper love hoofball man. Fuck fluidity man!

Hes a ruthless finisher. Lets not make him out to be something he's not. Give him a something of a chance and he'll likely bury it than not. Evidence: last season. This season we've given him some chances (although not as much), + bad form, + bad luck. Its the same s*** Ba went through end of last season honestly. The major difference here being Ba had more clear-cut chances than Cisse has had this season (if I recall correctly).

Getting well up for this one. No fucking idea why.
-
Yep, I've been saying that for quite some time. He had some poor luck, bad form, and knackered fitness that all seemed to contribute to this. I still maintain that had he scored a few of those before the slump really kicked in, we'd have probably have had a higher finishing place and/or Cisse wouldn't have scored the same amount, and we'd be playing the 4-3-3 we all loved last season and Ba wouldn't have kicked off about this over the summer. He basically took the easy excuse and blamed the formation, which on paper - sure. But anyone watching these matches could see it was more him than the formation itself.
-
Replace Jonas with Ba and I'd love that lineup. That to me would be Pards going for it.
-
I guess my gripe is that without Ben Arfa and Cabaye we have no creativity. We play 4 grafters in midfield and then complain about 0 chances created for our strikers.
-
Interesting parallel, Dave. Towards the end, we made the mistake of bending over backwards to please Shearer and paid a heavy price for it. If Ba is unhappy at the club, or he doesn't want to play where the manager thinks is best for the team, then he can take his miserable face somewhere else. One of those catch-22s. He's the best we've had since Big Al, and I don't want to him to leave. But if by the end of all of this, we couldn't pay to retain him; then I guess you blame our inability to pay the wages and you just hope that if he does leave, he goes far away from the Premier League as possible. I'd love to have an answer on how to pay him, keep him happy and also have Cisse here and have them both firing in goals in a fluid dynamic system that gets the best out of both of them and our squad which means wins and a higher position in the table, but we both (all) know the answer to that was that Ba couldn't buy himself a goal in that period last season. Had he scored 1 or 2 of those I don't think we'd be having this discussion if I'm honest.

I can't stress enough that he needs to play in Cabaye's ACM role if we ever decide to get back to 4-3-3. With Anita/Tiote behind him. I'd really be happy if he played in Hatem's wide right role for tonight's match in a 4-3-3 as well mind you. Crossing my fingers that our manager will attempt to try this. Here's to hoping.
-
Big match, hope all who are attending are in good enough spirits today to be in full voice. Will be watching from my office today! Lets have this today and get back on track.
-
Perhaps things have changed on his stance after our recent performances?
-
Common sense in me says we'll see a return to 4-3-3 with Demba left of Cisse in the middle and Hatem out right soon. I have no basis for this mind you, just my gut feeling.
