Newcastle's Ba: Cabaye and Ben Arfa make football look easy

Newcastle United striker Demba Ba has heaped praise on teammates Yohan Cabaye and Hatem Ben Arfa.

The Senegal international scored the only goal in yesterday's 1-0 home win over Norwich City and was very complimentary of the French midfield pair after Ben Arfa played him through for the winner and Cabaye set him for a possible late second which was saved by Canaries keeper John Ruddy.

"When you got players like yohan or hatem. It make football look easy…," he posted on Twitter.

Ba has scored three goals in his last two matches to make it four for the season and a total of 20 in 39 Premier League appearances for the Magpies.
