I hope it is Japanese Ramen, not Baba Rahman. On a free transfer yes. He is not worth any where near the figures being put about. He has a terrible injury record. Don't waste any money on him
I would take him on loan, I imagine Chelsea would be keen to shift a bit off their wage bill. If he can find fitness and form he would be a good signing for us, but the biggest question mark is definitely over the fitness.
Oh Baba, Baba, how were you supposed to know That something wasn't right here? Oh Baba, Baba, Lampard shouldn't have let you go But you injury record is *****, yeah Show me how you want it to be Tell me, Baba, 'cause I need to know now, oh because
I wonder if, a year later than planned, we might end up with Danny Rose as our left-back this season. He’s being offered to Championship clubs, and won’t be included in the Spurs squad when they submit their list next week.
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want (Rookery/GT) So tell me what you want, what you really, really want (SEJ/Vic Road stand/directors box) I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want (Rookery/GT) So tell me what you want, what you really, really want (SEJ/Vic Road stand/directors box) I want Baba, I want Baba, I want Baba, I want Baba (all) I want Baba on the pitch and three points in the bag If you wanna be a starter, you gotta learn to defend But stay away from Craig Dawson, he is not your friend If you wanna be a starter, you have got to be Strong with a good left peg , and comfy in a back three
Brilliant post. Probably the best in the history of the forum. Extra points for the linking of probably the best music video ever too. I'll be singing this when he signs for sure!
Reckon we can teach this song to the 1881 for when this chap inevitably signs for us? Will be good to get some singing practice in before fans are allowed back in IMO.
The flaws with that song a numerous, not least that Baba has one too many syllables for how you're trying to use it, but the fact that Rahman is a LWB and you're trying to claim that he'll be shoehorned in to being one of the 3 CBs is the most heinous of the crimes.
If you wanna be a starter, you have to be Unlike Deeney, Hughes, Janmaat, Chalobah and TDB, not have a dodgy knee
Think the pearl and Dean cinema music is better. Baba baba baba baba bababa, baba baba babaaa Rahman.
This actually isn't true. After extensive research, I came to the conclusion that "I wanna (ah)" and "I want Baba" are both 4 syllables long. Damn! I didn't realise he's a LWB. In fairness though, we have a great record of playing players out of position. Capoue and Hughes on the wing are good examples haha.
Actually yeah you're right when counting the syllables, it's more that trying to say the 'b' in 'baba' seems to take the space of two syllables as the end of 'want' doesn't really flow in to it and so there's a pause between the t and b which in effect sound almost like an extra syllable.
I genuinely don't know much about him, he might be an absolute class act, but if he's injury prone, what's the point? Rather have an average Championship player with a solid fitness record than a top class player who'll spend most of his time on the treatment table
From reports it sounds like this one is getting closer. Was meant to be joining Leeds but fell through so I suspect that ironically we are moving on from their LB to the guy they wanted to replace him with? Injury free he'd do very well here.
Was supposed to be quite promising before his injury, he's quick, strong and a good crosser of the ball (according to a Chelsea fan I know)
