nufc4eva Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 He hasn't been as prolific in Holland as I'd thought he had. Is he more a creative player than a pure goalscorer? He only scored 25 goals in 24 league games last season (according to ESPN). f***ing crap that like. And he is only 21 proper old Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Tall lad isn't he. Scores a good few headers as #9. How would he fit into a 4-3-3, out of interest? Exactly where Ba plays atm, he can play both wide roles and behind the main striker as well as CF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Happy with this like, if it materializes! We need more than two top class strikers on our books and regardless of what he wants pardew will ease him in like santon. Can see Ba taking his ball and leaving if we get him though. If so I hope we add someone else like rodriguez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Who was the useless striker who went to the Smoggies, he scored a daft amount in the Dutch league but was turboshite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 He hasn't been as prolific in Holland as I'd thought he had. Is he more a creative player than a pure goalscorer? His goalscoring record in the league for Twente is better than 1 in 2. True, but think about how prolific other have been in the Dutch league. I was almost expecting closer to a goal a game. Don't know why we're bothering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Jesus - all I did was read on wikipedia that he had scored 39 goals in 76 games for Twente. Just thought he might have stats more like Van Nistelrooy, Kezman, Alves etc.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why we're bothering. Not really my point - I haven't seen him play and was merely trying to ascertain if he has more than just goals to his game. Holland is undeniably a fairly 'easy' league to score in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Who gives a shit about the stats man We won't be signing him on stats if we do make a move. We'll be signing him on his footballing attributes and abilities and how suitable they are for us, gathered from hopefully meticulous scouting.

Fenham Mag Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 He's 21 man! When RVN was that age he was getting near 1 in 2 in the Dutch league. He's performing well above his age level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Even though i have watched him play on a few occasions..... the mere fact Patrick Kluivert considers him as the Future of Holland is enough for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
