      We should go in for and take their pants down at the lowest price possible, with him and Enrique robbed from Newcastle will make feel a lot better about getting our pants took down over Carroll.

      I'd say it's bollocks but wouldn't be funny if that happened then Ba broke down with a fu**ed up knee?! (Nothing against Ba, by the way, just Chavski).

      Ba is a good player, for £5 mil its worth it just as another back up, I think he would fit into our team quite well.

      His character is really terrible. Ba will go everywhere if the money is right, without a doubt. He left Hoffenheim in a way, that was just unacceptable.

      Has the scout budget been cut due to the recession or something? This is just lazy scouting. Yes hes playing well but he is not a top club player! Playing out of his skin but will be sure to be a flop in a top club!

      Would rather see us aim afar for the new Chicarito or Next best thing instead of a 26yr old moneygrabber!

      This is one of the most ridiculous posts I have seen in a while!!  Have you watched Demba Ba this season, or last year with West Ham?  His movement in and around the box is fantastic and he is a clinical finisher with his head and his feet.  He is big and strong, yet he also has a bit of pace about him. 

      In all honesty, you only need to look at his goalscoring record throughout his career to realize that this season is not a fluke!!  92 Goals in 176 Games (including his appearances for Senegal) means he has consistently been bagging at least 1 goal for every two games that he features in. 

      Also, the lad has a phenomenal attitude!  So please do us all a favor and don't comment on a player, team, event, etc unless you actually have a clue what you are talking about....

      Clearly your on the rag!

      What was Andy Carrolls record before he came to us? Roughly 1 in 3games too! Some players just play better at lower clubs and cant live up to the big club!

      I suppose you would sign Odemwingie and Dempsey too? Hoffenheim are hardly the liverpool of Germany, they are more like the Newcastle!

      Before you over react again... I said he is in form! But form is not what makes a worldclass player stand out from the rest and thats what I would rather see come to us... Another suarez and or an unknown talent.

      What makes this forum good is that not everyone has to agree with eachother!

      ^ So, you don't want him because he's been on form for the last 5 years, but hasn't played for a glamorous club?  Hahahaha, that truly is laughable!

      Also, Odemwingie and Dempsey have each only managed slightly better than 1 goal every 4 appearances, while Demba Ba averages slightly better than 1 goal every 2 appearances.  If you want to break it down mathematically, then Demba Ba is twice the player that either of the other two are! 

      Also, CArrol's goalscoring record was only decent before he came to LFC - he averaged about 1 goal every 3 games.  However, I have always maintained that Andy will come good eventually.  He has only just turned 23 years old, which is still very young for a target style CF.

      Have you ever watched him actually play?

      He's a menace. He'll be brilliant where ever he goes.

      I have to admit i think this could be another gamble.. Not one id want to take, if the board and manger see it as not one ok but im just not convinced he will do it for a top club or his knees will last the test of time.

      Didnt he fail a medical at stoke because of them? And his reported medicals at West Ham And Newcastle reduced down not to include that part?

      Still has done a fine job for both clubs . He would also fit into our style of play, whereas Carroll seems to be really struggling.

      ^^^^Carroll did well before he came here when everything went through him and the style of play suited him... Ba gets everything through him and directed to suit him there too... its different at a big club with more options.. And different when teams come to your place to sit deep and defend and you cant rely on one tactic
