Mole_Toonfan Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Also the lack of ambition shown by the club in the summer might not have helped things in convincing him we can meet his career aspirations medium term. I would laugh my arse off if we sold Ba and then went and signed Debuchy, Remy and a CB. Wouldn't be the first time we had done it either, when Enrique left and accused us of lacking ambition we signed Ba, Marveaux, Obertan, Santon, Cabaye etc etc. Seems we have to sell players before we start getting off our arse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 He might be miffed by what happened in the summer. But it's almost certainly not his motives for the move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Ashley's blue print is to buy players cheap and sell for a profit so players will use us in the same way. They are signing for us as relatively unknowns with something to prove and putting themselves in the shop window and if bigger clubs come calling then they will move on. The only way that will change will be if we start to win things and pay competitive wages and neither are likely to happen. Not totally true on two fronts. First - His blueprint is for the club to be self sufficient, if a players cost fits within the clubs affordability he’ll be bought irrespective of fee. The other “condition” is that he has resale value, that does not have to be more than he was bought for, just more than his value “on the books” at the time of sale (due to amortisation). Second – “competitive wages” are paid already (daft wages are not) and will continue to be so, so long as it fits with the % of turnover for wages that’s been laid down. It really is quite simple, players will be bought if it fits the model. If they don’t they won’t. In hindsight, he made a mistake in the summer, there was a case for a little speculate to accumulate, especially given the explosion in PL dosh next season. Hopefully he’s learned from that, but it doesn’t need a daft or never ending splash of cash. In fact if we hadn’t had so many injuries (way more than you could possibly reasonably expect) the apparent summer non-spend likely wouldn’t have been a factor.

afar Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Also the lack of ambition shown by the club in the summer might not have helped things in convincing him we can meet his career aspirations medium term. Not the issue imo. All money driven. Very true, one of the things that's disappointed me throughout this saga is the mercenary nature of Demba that's shone through, I don't think he really cares who he plays for as long as he plays where he gets goals and is getting paid as much as he can. The truth of where they are in the process will come out when the team is picked today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 How dare the second top scorer in the league and someone who has scored better than 1 in 2 for 2 seasons want paying the going rate. Greedy fucking bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 FWIW despite all of the speculation of "he would go to QPR if they came in for him!" there's been nothing to suggest this at all, the only facts we know are that he is/was in discussions with Chelsea, the European Champions.

Ash Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Newcastle United can confirm that Chelsea Football Club has made an official offer for Demba Ba which has triggered the release clause in the player's contract. The Club has given the player permission to speak to Chelsea FC and therefore he will not be included in the squad for tonight's game against Everton. http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20130102/club-statement-demba-ba_2281670_3024928 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
