LucaAltieri Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 no doubt fair play to you mind, clinging to the buoy of despair in a sea of positivity can't be an easy thing to do I'm just a realist. I'll reserve full judgement until he's played but you're all getting carried away before a ball has been kicked. Chances are he has no technique and is incredibly disloyal.

ohmelads Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Looks a similar player to Ba actually, bit of a fox in the box with two good feet, good in the air, good with crosses. He'll find it a step up from the German league, but he looks a natural goalscorer. The difference is Ba likes to drop deep and get involved in the build up while Pardew says this guy plays the line, so if that's true they will hopefully click. Be interesting to see how they play together for Senegal. It's not really like this regime to make an ambitious signing that will push us on, a signing we don't necessarily need purely to improve the first team. Our big signings have usually been replacements for outgoing players who have left a hole in the squad. Either the board have changed their tune or someone will make way for this. Let's hope those making way are the likes of Lovenkrands, Ranger and Smith and not any of our first team. You would assume he's been signed as a partner for Ba. Let's hope this convinces Ba to sign a new deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ykmkmdd Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Initial Youtube scouting suggests a player a bit reminiscent of Andy Cole - think he'll link up with Ba very well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guinness_fiend Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Youtube clips seem pretty f***ing boring to me. Doesn't look any better than what we already have, tbh. yeah, has nothing on Ben Arfa or Luque. Seriously, they're mostly soft goals against s**** opposition. No evidence he can do the business on a cold night at the Britannia. Aye, because Liverpool and Chelsea's respective purchases of Carroll and Torres have gone so well. I also hear that Crouch is scoring loads of goals for Stoke. As is Saha for Everton. Given the success of the majority of the players that MA has brought in (listed pages back), there is no reason to assume that Cisse will not do the business. Plus, in today's money, £9m for an international striker - irrespective if he comes from the "third world" (That Drogba, he was awful in his prime, wasn't he?) - is a gamble worth taking. The negativity of some people on here (usually justified by the "But I'm a realist" claim) is staggering. I can only assume that you are on the wind-up and part of me is actually embarrassed that I have responded to this. http://blogs.coventrytelegraph.net/passtheremote/victor%20meldrew%20richard%20wilson.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Just realised his full name is Papiss Demba Cisse, probably mentioned earlier but think it should be included in the thread title at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I think you have to trust out scouting team based on recent signings, not always going to be right but foreign based players we have signed are pretty fucking good. We seem to do a lot of due diligence these days to prevent a Luque situation and check players mentality and character to see if would fit in. Plus got to be better than shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Still really excited about this signing, can't wait to see Demba B and Demba C up top together. Good news that it seems like he was Pards' #1 target in terms of strikers as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Looks a similar player to Ba actually, bit of a fox in the box with two good feet, good in the air, good with crosses. He'll find it a step up from the German league, but he looks a natural goalscorer. The difference is Ba likes to drop deep and get involved in the build up while Pardew says this guy plays the line, so if that's true they will hopefully click. Be interesting to see how they play together for Senegal. Yeah, that's how it looks. I was hoping for more of a Bellamy / Beardsley-type, but Pardew's vision for the side is evidently different. Or maybe he's looking to Ben Arfa or Marveaux to fill that kind of role. He should add pace and sharpness in the penalty area, which we've been lacking and once he gets used to the more physical nature of the Premiership, he looks like he can be effective. Although he's not big, he seems quite strong. Whatever, the encouraging thing is that this is a player that we've identified at an early stage, he fits into a plan for the side, we've refused to be ripped off and when the player has become available, we've acted swiftly.

BoSelecta Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Given our signing of Tiote, Cabaye and Cisse, imagine seeing a list of players that Carr's been watching for a few years and had registered an interest to Pards and Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Tubed him to death, he does look canny quick, brave good first touch, seems to find space but that will not be as easy to do over here, ore than anything though he looks to have the knack of being in the right place at the right time.
