    Mourinho wouldn't just help us out. Ba is not very good. There were tonnes of decent strikers on the move this summer.

    2 goals in 11 PL starts for Chelsea last season with Hazard, Oscar and Mata putting chances on a plate for him. Koscielny has similar stats.

    Not good enough for the top level, tbh.

    Scored 19 goals last season.

    15 in the league.

    More than good enough

    I wouldn't have minded a cheeky bid for Chicharito if we wanted to settle for a good 2nd tier striker. Not that United would have sold him to us but you never know.

    Hard to disagree.

    Would sooner have Ba coming off the bench than Bendtner!

    But he somehow manage to score goals at West Ham and Newcastle, he's good not great. He just didn't get a chance to really settle. He'll get goals for us.

    Pretty much.

    Torres, Shevchenko, Crespo etc all flopped there.

    Even Drogba only had a couple of good seasons goal wise. He is rated cos he did it in the big games.

    Ba is fine. Time he came home

    I think he'd be a decent backup/rotation.

    He's not brilliant, but it's not like you have that much to choose from anyway.

    Drogba flopped on the goalscoring front in his first season at Chelsea. He only scored 10 goals in the league despite starting most matches. I'm not saying Ba's the next Drogba or anything but he only played a handful of games and lost his confidence. If he can get that confidence back he could do a job for us.
