It's the other way round in my opinion as Ba's scored around 1 in 2 wherever he has gone. He's a class player and I thought his all round play while out of position were all very good in the 2nd half of the season, he just couldn't seem to find the back of the net.
I'd be a bit miffed if they got 10m out of us, we only paid 8 for Cisse. On loan (with option to buy) it's definately a good move for us but I can't see it happening since it's win win for us and sort of lose lose for Liverpool.
The likes of Vuckic, Abeid, Ferguson and Sammy should step it up, which will help our squad in the cups etc. Hopefully we can replace a few of those from within.
