KaKa Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Cisse's agent quoted as saying that he would love to come to Newcastle. Another ex-Liverpool striker who was bought for a hell of a lot of Money, but who never quite worked out. Unfortunately for Cisse he was caughti n the most ridiculous situation where Liverpool bought him because Houllier wanted him, but by the time Cisse arrived Houllier was gone! I think this was a big part of his struggles at Liverpool, especially as Rafa didn't seem to be a fan. So ... considering what Sam was able to do for Diouf, do you think he would transform Cisse into a greater threat? Cisse no doubt has a ton of ability that just needs to be harnessed. Could Sam be the man and would you be happy to see Cisse come to Newcastle? I think it would be a fascinating prospect. Cisses pace is phenomenal and I love his guts, as he has now come back twice from two broken legs and still looks just as quick! He's a bit of a nutter but if he could be managed better and taught how to use his pace to get in behind defences he could be a terror in our league. What are your thoughts?

Dokko Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 His legs are shot, would take him on a free and on a very low wage but that is all he is worth. 14 (5) 7 goals, not very good since the French top divison is as weak as the bottom of our Championship, bar one or two teams.

KaKa Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Broken legs are very different from torn ligaments though, as you tend to heal completely and if anything you come back stronger. He certainly doesn't look any slower or less mobile this season. Rumoured price is £4 million as his stock has plummeted due to the injuries. Worth a punt at £4 million?

He's got some pedigree for £4m when you think how much Nugent and the likes will cost this pre-season. I'm not sure about him though mainly because of his disruptive attitude. Do we really need another moody frenchman? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 very similar player to Martins IMO, has bundles of pace but an inability to use it effectively altho he did appear to be more of intelligent player than Martins when he was back at Liverpool. Would definately be worth a punt as a 4th striker (baring in mind Carroll going out on loan). His injuries werent muscular which doesnt mean him to be injury prone, most people can't help breaking their leg and he obviously has some courage fighting back from it not once but twice. Yes he has only scored 7 goals in Ligue 1 this season but this so called weak league the top scorer has only got 13. He averages 1 in 3 at international level and some1 who has 29caps for France obviously isn't a mug. I think he is definately the sort of player BSA cud get the best out of and more importantly like a lot of the ppl he got at BW Cisse has something to prove. Can also play wide right of a forward 3 so is versatile to an extent to. No more than £4m and a lowish wage = good buy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 People say he is injury prone, but apart from the two broken legs which were both freak injuries, I don't ever remember him picking up any other typical injuries. Also, I have a great admiration from how he came back so quickly, says a lot about his mentality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another moody frenchman is not what we need, he didn't look like he gave a flying fook whilst playing for Liverpool and hardly endeared himself to the fans there. I seriously don't think he's what we need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
