When he was signed from Freiburg for 9 million quid, there wasn't too much hype about him. But boy oh boy, Cisse cannot stay out of the headlines. From curlers, to tap ins, volleys and to even that monstrosity he belted out against Chelsea.
I know i digress, but if his goal against Chelsea was converted to dowry, it'd be more that enough to pay for all your family's marriage arrangements.
Sure, Messi and Cristiano have run rampant, bagging goals so easy you'd think they play against toddlers. But his guy, 13 goals in 12 games and yet he was a mid season signing. Brilliant. Along with the marginally forgotten Ba, they have given Newcastle the force to push for fourth and that Champions League spot.
At the rate he scores, we should probably call him "The Mid Wife" because he damn delivers.
Up next for Cisse and Newcastle is Manchester City at their home ground. That will definitely not be one to miss.
After all has been said and done; give God what is God's and Cisse what is Cisse's.
Take a bow son. Take a bow

EPL REVIEW, A FAN'S VIEW
It has been a freak season this, eh?
First it was Manchester United suffering an injury crisis we only wish on Arsenal, and which led to United getting whooped 6-1, at home... by their noisy neighbours. I was majorly hurt by that one, being a United fan. Then played second fiddle to our noisy neighbours for a few months. Bookies(I used to assume these are guys who read books so much) said the Manchester derby would decide the potential winner. I didn't believe it but now I think I do. The bragging rights are entirely with the blue side of Manchester now. We played shit, we paid for it. Simple. It'll be interesting to see how the league plays out from here on.
Then it was Arsenal with their injuries. Jesus, this team... and the random inconsistencies. And some classy own goals. Koscielny takes this award if it ever is coined. Then it was the 8-2 demolition by Man United.
Then came Newcastle. This team I'd say, for a team that got promoted, is doing really well. They are now challenging for Chelsea and Tottenham's - and what used to be Liverpool's place a while back - place in the league.
Tottenham recently started stamping their authority(mostly on Arsenal and bottom half teams) in the Premier League.But their form had dipped since February, I think, owing to the whole Redknapp leaving to manage England. Shocker! Roy Hodgson landed that position. That's another thing right?
Now West Brom will be looking for a manager next season. Tottenham may also be. I think Redknapp let himself get carried away with the England job speculations, that he may be feel bad for letting his team down. So I personally think he might move on elsewhere. That creates a lot of speculation about his star players... Bale and Modric. They could also leave, don't you think?
Chelsea and Liverpool have been average. I can't discuss average, that's a waste of your valuable time. But I will do just that and remind you of the racism charges that faced the two average clubs. Funny how Suarez was dealt with immediately and yet JT's case was postponed till after the Euros. Leaves a lot to be answered, eh? That aside, Liverpool have done well to save their season and look likely to seal a double having already won the Carling Cup. They have to beat Chelsea though.
Wigan... I have no words for them. They lag behind the whole season and then out of nowhere beat United, Arsenal and Newcastle. Clearly remaining in the Premier League is a priority. Wolves are already out, and two other teams are going to join them down in the Championship. someone has got to go. I personally think Blackburn should go. They have been riding a crisis wave for a long time now
Still lots of footballing action coming up in the next few weeks. Euro, Olympics, and the pre-season and transfer gossip. Not forgetting our very own Kenyan Premier League. We certainly will be talking up on that. Lets talk some more football some other time
