It is. Apparently he's out of favour there!

In other news, The Mirror and The Star (I know, I know) are linking us with Demba Ba.

Demba Ba linked now.

You will feel sheepish if we dont get him!
Other clubs will flock to sign him!

Made me raise an eyebrow but thinking it over a little more the move would take some focus off of Benteke having another striker at least SEMI-capable of scoring. It's not like teams have to game plan around Gabby and Andi, at least Ba would demand a little attention from opposing defenders.

He's still a handy player, I'd go for that.

I'm not sure we need another striker.  Benteke is, and should be, our first choice.  What we lack is a decent creative player(s) to replace either Gabby or Weimann.  Add one of them and Weimann would be our first sub (ignoring Kovak).  I actually think Weimann deserves a chance as a striker (rather than a winger) before we start spending Xm on a player that won't play.

Put another way, we have bigger priorities than buying a guy to sit on the bench.

If he got the goals that kept us up he's be well worth it.

Demba Ba is a much better player than he ever gets credit for, always scores goals and always creates problems. I would love him and Benteke up front with Sinclair and Gil supplying them, but there is more chance of us signing me than spending 8 million on Demba Ba.
