Newcastle United – Taking Chances

If you were struggling to think of one particular reason why Newcastle United have soared this season, let us help you.

The defence have been outstanding for much of the time, particularly Fabricio Coloccini and Tim Krul.

The midfield has really come on with Cabaye and Tiote at times looking as good as anything else in the Premier League.

All that though could well have counted for very little without the outstanding Demba Ba, just look at this goals to chances ratio and you can see clearly why Newcastle are doing so well.

Plus I would be pretty confident that the average chance Demba’s converted has been a bit trickier than the average Manc one.

Who have Liverpool got up front again….

Just think what we can do now with two Dembas!
