Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I think my point has been missed. He could have had anything he ever dreamed of as a lad He said himself that was all he ever wanted, the newcastle number 9 shirt. It's not like he would be skint either. My point is he was the one with a contract and he could have stayed if he wished. I am not saying he should have stayed either but it is extremley hypocritical to say all I want is 9 shirt and next minute I am leaving cos they want me too even though I have a 5 year contract! I don't understand the people who are feeling sorry for him (apart from the fact he is having to live with those scouse scumbags) Agreed. The excuse you'll hear for that is he had his head turned by an evil behind the scenes agent, had to be dragged kicking and screaming into that helicopter. People concoct mental conspiracy theories to place blame with one party or another. The plain explanation that he wanted to go and the club wanted to sell is perfectly logical.

jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Lee Ryder wrote on the Chronicle site about Ben Arfa been at the Gateshead game on Saturday, and that he had said that he wanted to take in the atmosphere and see a local game. I received a mms on my phone yesterday evening, to open it and find a picture of a very lush Mercedes ride with plate beginning in, "BA...". This was sent from my brother and it turns out Hatem came into the bar that they were in yesterday and that my brother's friend was chatting with him for ages in there. He told us that he's such a nice guy, genuine, and seems keen to talk to fans and locals, rather than hiding away in a millionaire mansion and forgetting those who sing his name. Now I remember getting a similar call when Andy Carroll was out in town, and as my brother approached him to speak to him, a 'heavy' who was with him was quick to throw my brother in the other way. I've been curious as to the motives of Ben Arfa. Does he want to play in Black 'n White? Why does he love the place so much? I always thought that players didn't really give two flyers about us lot who fork out to go and cheer the Toon along, but Hatem certainly seems to be different. Maybe he's impressed with the way the club has treated him during his injury lay off? Maybe it's because we're his first club outside of France where he was a rather divisive figure? which will only emphasise his u-turn even more when it comes. Why don't you shut up with your negative,boring,repetitive shite you sad wanker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Hope he can play to his potential, if so we have a classy player who will make a big difference. Hope he gets the number ten shirt too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Which players have been out for a whole season with a break and come back stronger? Genuinely wondering if there's any examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Shearer had trouble with his ligaments through his carrer after missing half of his first season at Blackburn too I suppose. Still class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but Proberbly good he didn't play in the last few games, a full pre season behind him should be back flying. Obviously that's if he's 100% recovered. I read somewhere after a break the bone knits back stronger, the only issue could be a mental one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney 0 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I don't think SHBA messed his ligaments-up anyway, which was a huge positive. Valencia is another who's come back fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Saw a lad in our home top with Ben Arfa on the back this morning on the way to work at the train station. He was chatting to a mate and was clearly Arab/French. Just thought i'd mention it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
