alpal78 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Getting them both back is crazy especially after having to see Shola play. It's such a massive upgrade that I don't even know how to describe it! This could be the push we need, too bad we don't have Tiote and Cabaye. I do have concerns if they will get the supply they need, especially if as expected HBA is dropped to the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 The lad comes from baking temps, in the ACoN, to a freezing cold Newcastle...and he's one of only a few not wearing a hat! f***ing hardcore this one, lads tbf he's used to playing in continental europe which get much colder than the north east.

He's essentially managed to get the majority of his goals by doing all the work himself. Really looking forward to seeing them together on the pitch. Reckon Ba will drop a little deeper to help set up the attacking play (as he did vs Man U), with Cisse on the shoulder of the last defender looking to use his pace. Should be interesting!

Elliottman Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 3-0 to Newcastle 2-1 villa win. Away form to continue Ba and Cisse will likely play which is bad news for us; both were rested against Blackburn due to their flights from Africa. I fancy Villa to cause a few problems in attack but we're going to concede. 2-2. Going to be positive after our second half performance against QPR and say that we might just sneak this one as Newcastle will be weakened without a couple of their better players. A good time to play them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without even looking at a youtube video i'm sure most of his goals have come from crosses or passes from other players rather than mazy runs beating loads of people himself. Man Utd he hooked in after a flick on from Shola, didn't create it himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what I said. I don't think we've created boatloads of chances for Ba through good attacking football. He's been very clinical converting the few chances we have created for him, and on top of that has scored a fair few where he essentially created the chance all by himself.

No, but I'm sure that's the point he's trying to make. but the way he's trying to prove it is false, the majority of his goals haven't been solo efforts from nothing, most have been one on one good finishes from inside the box after having the ball fed to him. (similar to the trotted out line about martins as if he scored the spurs type goal regular) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 back page of the Chron implies AP has a 'selection headache' with who to play up front, with pictures of Ba, Cisse, Best and Shola. Seeing Shola as a possibility and the words 'selection headache' don't compute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
