Newcastle are winning the Ba brawl

 

Published 23:00 10/06/11 By Simon Bird

 

Newcastle are set to land Demba Ba in a bargain deal next week.

 

The French-born Senegal star is quitting West Ham on a free and Newcastle believe they are close to sealing a deal for the big striker.

 

Alan Pardew was back at his desk this week and completed the signing of Yohan Cabaye last night in a £5million switch from Lille.

 

Ba, 26, scored seven goals in 12 games for the Hammers' relegation-bound side and Newcastle can more than match his wages as they look to replace Andy Carroll with a new focal-point striker.

 

He also had a good goal ration in Germany for Hoffenheim bagging 37 in 97 games.

If the wages are sensible I think he would be a good signing, how many West Ham games did he miss?

 

And as long as he's not the only striker.

As I said in the other thread, nobody will pay him 80k wages and he'd be a brilliant free transfer. Add Zoggy and a main striker to that and we're looking sexy-licious for next season (touch wood).

Did look a good striker for West Ham, if there is a deal I hope it's a sensible one.

If we are getting him we need to get rid of some one like Lovenkrands, Ranger or Xisco and still get a top quality striker in.

 

Ranger and Xisco will probably both go.

New striker, Ba, Best, Ameobi, Lovenkrands (Kuqi emergency style).

Be reasonably happy with this as long as it's not used as a reason to not spend properly on another striker.

 

Scores goals, can do it in the Premier League.

 

This, still need another good striker but for the right wages definately

Aye. Decent number 2 striker though.

Another 'quality' striker and Ba should do it. Best and Ameobi will be acceptable as 3rd and 4th choice.
