In a statty mood tonight, 1 goal every 2 hours throughout 2011. Awesome.

 

Said in the Mail today (not mine I hasten to add!) that he has the best goals per minutes ratio in Premier League history.

£8m is fucking laughable btw. :lol:

 

Andy Johnson was £10m. So was Peter Crouch. Pavlyuchenko was £14m. City paid £17m for Roque Santa Cruz, a player you could argue had a similar purple patch (not that I doubt Ba can keep it up). Mackems paid £14m for Gyan.

 

£8m ffs.

He's got a better goals to games ratio than Carroll had for us last season as well. I'd say about £60mil is a fair price.

From a couple of months ago.  Look at the company he's sharing!  And he's probably even higher now!

My mackem mate (who's usually sensible) told me before the start of the season that we won't score goals with Demba Ba upfront :yao:

 

Going to seeing my mate tomorrow (lives in Dorset these days), think that will be the time to mock him.

Demba Ba is a fantastic player for us, I knew he'd come good, I just didn't think he'd reach the level he's currently playing at.

 

This. I kinda thought he'd be an alright stopgap till we got in a proper striker...Still think he'll get an injury, but he's absolutely brilliant.

1756: On a serious note, do you think any of the top six sides may take a look at Demba Ba in January? He is scoring all sorts of goals at the moment. A free-kick the other day, headers, scrappy goals like today's effort. He and Gary Cahill had a right old battle as well, he can mix it up. I'll start the bidding at, say £8m? Who will buy?

 

wtf BBC?? we're one frickin point off the "top six sides". gahhhh.

 

£8m?.. £8m?!.. 8 million  pounds???!!!!!  :kasper:  :tickedoff:

Wonder how much hes worth,  Carroll is english and younger so knock off 10 Million, but he's a better player all round and scores more

Have a feeling i'm going to adore Ba. He might be the greatest striker ever to play for us.

 

It's official.

 

:lol: It's funny that, you're not one for patting yourself on the back Ronaldo.

 

Love Ba, looks tremendous.  Not looking forward to being without him.
