Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 PSG possibly? Although you'd imagine they could buy better strikers than him. Just wish this was resolved one way or another, has been tedious with all the speculation every window since he joined Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 will his replacement still be at SJP on wednesday ? Adam Campbell will be there either as a a sub or a spectator, so yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Seems like everyone wants him to go now, regardless of his goals. Different story yesterday. I don't want him to go, but the bridges are probably burnt now. If the uncertainty was causing problems before, it certainly will be now. If he's going to go, we need it over and done with ASAP.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 If this deal has fallen through then I hope he is dropped until he commits to a new contract without a release clause, but also still within our wage structure. He can play on the wing until he leaves as far as I'm concerned. Can't see that ending well. And what exactly would 'end well?' Nothing So what difference does it make if we shove him on the wing? We need Cisse to re-discover his goal scoring touch for when Ba f***s off to whoever shows him the money. I know, it's tough. But if we stick him out wide is he really going to bother trying all that much? At least through the middle he will play well to try and get a move away, doing well for us in the meantime. May be a case of don't play him. Marv on the left, HBA on the right when fit, if we can afford to do that. Not sure how a peeved off Ba having not got a move, then stuck out on the left, not able to be main man etc would work for the team as a whole. I can see it being counter productive in the end. Hope not, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love him to stay but he has to sign a new deal without the clause, mind we can't force him out he may stay and leave on a free. If he cannot agree terms with Chelsea no way what we are offering will good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shush Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 He maybe a mercenary cunt, but he has been highly effective here for us, and far for less fees and salary than any other top striker at this club since Shearer. He should play unless there is another serious offer on the table. We need him to score, Everton will be a tragically tough game and look what Demba salvaged us away at their ground early in the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me very little has changed. He wanted away before this Chelsea news, his agents have been doing all they can before this to make it happen. I want to see Cisse in the middle and we won't replace him till he's gone. All this was applicable yesterday, the difference is minor IMO. People are now just worried well be stuck with him and changed their stance. Not as easy to be stuck up his arse today (not aimed at you btw - I can't remember your stance tbh) when his greed shows its face without any doubt and to a detrimental effect towards the club.

Mistle17 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 It is very disappointing to think that he wants to leave. After becoming such an icon last season and this season you would think he's made a home for himself, but his agent is clearly in his ear at every opportunity. Demba's got pretty much everything he could want at NUFC, despite the club having a very rough season this time out. If his agent was telling him that he thinks he should move because he's at a club with little ambition then fair enough, I can understand that, but if it's for the money and Demba agrees with that then that is deeply, deeply disappointing. And as for this knee theory, I'm not a medical expert but I think the media have blown it so far out of proportion. As Ba said himself, we're all a 'ticking timebomb'. Any players knee could go at any time; one freak tackle or awkward landing and that's their season/career over. Look at Ryan Taylor, I don't remember anyone tipping him for knee trouble. I do appreciate that he's getting on with age but its certainly not something that I'm concerned about. As much as I detest mercenaries and players using clubs as 'stepping stones' I will be gutted if we lose Demba as he is such a quality player and he'll be a huge miss in a vital period in the clubs season and potentially recent history. Modern football is fucking bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 The demands must be proper Joan Collins for Chelsea to say no, like. If Chelsea are refusing to pay his demands then that surely rules out a lot of clubs. In Europe it must be only Man City and PSG (plus a handful of Russian clubs) who can afford him- or daft enough to pay him. I think his agent could really scupper a move for him.

Exactly. His goals have been great for us and he's a great player but if is going to go and the uncertainty is unsettling the other players who do want to stay then the sooner he goes or committs to us the better.

themanupstairs Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Does anyone believe Chelsea wouldn't pay him enough btw? Because otherwise I'm wondering how talks would have broken down if he's a greedy c*** and all about the money. This is what I was on about yesterday. Chelsea will probably know about the terms of his current deal, and may only look to improve it slightly, in the hope that he would have no other choice - having seemingly burned his bridges here. Other clubs will look at this and ask themselves if they can afford him when Chelsea can't? Clever negotiations by Chelsea if this is the case.
