A lot of Newcastle United fans have responded to a post from Demba Ba after he commented on a goal scored by Yohan Cabaye that involved some antics from Steven Taylor.
The Toon released the video that shows the former Newcastle defender dancing in front of Asmir Begovic as Cabaye prepares to take a free-kick. (0:06)
Taylor can be seen mimicking the Stoke goalkeeper (0:06) as chants of ‘there’s only one Steven Taylor’ ring around St James’ Park. (0:17)
Cabaye then steps up and curls a beautiful effort into the top corner – Taylor then goes off to celebrate in Begovic’s face. (1:06)
Did you like this from Steven Taylor?
Yes, very funny
No, childish
This caused Ba, who is valued at £675k (as per Transfermarkt), to tweet ‘Steven… I miss you crazy.’
This drew a huge reaction from these Newcastle fans who still seem to miss Ba.

What do we think?
These antics from Taylor, to us, are funny, and what makes it even better, in our opinion, is that Cabaye scored from that free-kick.
We also understand why these Toon fans miss Ba, considering in 58 games he managed to score an impressive 29 goals for Newcastle.
However, a quick look through Ba’s timeline will show that he still cares about Newcastle, and we like that.
