Simpson says Newcastle locker room buzzing over their Dembas

Newcastle United fullback Danny Simpson admits the place is buzzing thanks to the two Dembas.

Demba Ba and Papiss Demba Cisse impressed in victory over Aston Villa.

"It's good to be at the back looking at the front and seeing the two Dembas up front," Simpson told talkSPORT.

"[Cisse] has come in and he seems like a top lad. His English isn't great but he's learning and Demba Ba is helping him.

"To have those two back earlier than expected has given us a big lift and they look dangerous up front. We haven't seen too much of Papiss but he worked hard and he looked like he was holding up [the ball] well."
