Astroblack Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I liked Ba a lot more, too. I expected him to score against whoever we were playing and most times he did. He scored some spectacular goals here and they'd pop out of nowhere like the one against Spurs. Wasn't expecting that at all. Remy was good but he was injured a lot and only really scored against poor opposition. Also, he got three braces for us - Stoke(9 men) Cardiff and Hull so his ratio doesn't mean much when you take this into consideration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Ba's variation of goals was unreal! His first touch for his first at Norwich and then finish were quality! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, such a huge lift to know you have a player who can score out of nowt. We always had a chance of winning when Ba was in the team no matter how bad we played.

Astroblack Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Totally Agree. Just remembered that kick off earlier this season when he hit the crossbar. He's capable of things like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I'd prefer us to sign him than Austin tbh, we won't but I could see Ba going on being a quality striker for another 4-5 years despite his age. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remind me as I had £10 on him to score first! It was vs Arsenal in the Champions League qualifier! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Ba's goal ratio also includes a run of a dozen or so games in the middle where he couldn't hit a barn door. in that period nobody complained about this apparent lack of 'all round game'. I've said this before but Ba seemed like a leader in the dressing room. He also lead on the pitch. It feels like more of his goals counted than Remy's. More openers. More goals to earn us draws and wins. I think the same would be true of his time at Chelsea. Although they had a disappointing season, The Slip and the late winner against PSG would be highlights. I reckon The Slip, goal and subsequent 'Praise be to Allah' celebration is a top 10 PL moment. The celebration makes it seem like it Was written that Stevie Gerrard would not win the league title. And Ba had simply manifested God's Will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I loved Ba. I liked him more than Remy because Remy is a mercenary arsehole. Turns out Ba is too, but at least he was funny (strawberry see-rop etc). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
