Ketsbaia Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Surely Dost couldn't play on the left like Ba does? That'd be a strange replacement. I really hope Ba signs a new deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 oh and if we are to play 4-3-3 and ba should go then marveaux (fingers crossed with his injury) would suit that down to the ground. i'd still want another forward brought in mind, not just for cover but to offer a little different if need be to cisse and to go 2 up front if we want. Haven't seen enough of Marveaux tbh. I was kind of hoping that Vuckic might fit in there, left side of a front 3. Would need to help out defending on that side but no where as much responsibilty as the LM position. Still, guess we'll have to wait and see on both of them! Think the role would suit Marveaux fine. You never know, Obertan could be a potential option there too (if, by some miracle, he actually acquires a footballing brain over the summer..........). Don't think Vuckic has the legs/mobility to play in a front three. I would much rather see Haris part of a midfield three (with him being the most advanced).

Fenham Mag Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Losing Ba will be a massive blow , however it looks like we have some fantastic replacements lined up. There is the added bonus that the replacements won't be missing for a month in January/February. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 About Ba, I'm still pretty confident that he's going nowhere. Current situation aside (which is just a blip in form really, all players will suffer that at some point in their career), the setup we have here seems to be the perfect environment for him.

Dokko Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 We can replace Ba, I'm confident of it, probably with a player more suitable to formation were currently playing as well. Stays or goes, not the end of the world. £7m is a fair enough fee as well, fully fit with perfect knees we could only expect £10-12m in all honesty judging him on a full season, not just his purple patch.

David Icke - Son of God Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'd love Ba to stay but I wouldn't begrudge him a move to his boyhood club. If he does leave then I'm confident we'll replace him adequately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I can't see Ba staying if PSG come in, he has stated his desire to play the club he supported as a boy. I think we can replace him though, we're probably already working on it. Doubt there is much truth in that Chronicle article, other than Zaha who will be expensive and British, none of the other targets have experience playing as a wide forward. I doubt we could trust him with his fitness record but whenever I saw Marveaux in France he was excellent, I'm sure he could do a good job on the left. Hoilett would be my choice. Would love to see Gameiro here, it does not seem to have turned out that well for him at PSG. Splendid player- a more polished Hernandez. No chance sadly!

Unbelievable Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I may be naive, but I don't expect to see Ba leaving this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Purple patch is more thsn a bit harsh, he has scored goals his whole career and will still end this season with a 1 in 2 ratio. The lack of goals currently is the patch and he has still played well apart from a couple of games. £7m would be a really low fee considering his talent.

taxfree Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 If Ba was to leave, we should go for Dries Mertens. Think Ba will stay though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sho Time Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 If Ba was to leave and Wigan were to go down, perhaps Moses from Wigan would be a shout. Certainly not as prolific as Ba, but seems to have all the physical and technical attributes to go out wide in a 4-3-3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was straight from the mouth of Llambias. Hm, I'd still take him mind. He still went to the best club to progress by getting first team football and if he did turnus down due to money, this was back 2 years ago when we were paying our players with some pocket money, a pat on the head and a 12-second hug if they got MOTM.
