Park Life 71 Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Basically he has 10-15 mins when he is unplayable. It's gonna end up like that Maradona thing where he'll draw 5 players toward him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7168 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 They couldn't afford to put 2 men on him for most of yesterday as they just switched the ball to Remy. That's how important it is to have more then one star player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 He's wasting his time with Pards. "“The win is important. But the most important thing was that after the goal we kept on going. “We didn’t just take 1-1. We didn’t settle for a point. “If we want to be a big team we have to be more like that. “The big clubs are winners in their minds. “They have the winning mentality and don’t settle for anything less. “Manchester United are like that and we need to have that as well to be in the top five.” Aye wasting his time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bias 3 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 If he stays injury free this could be the season he really announces himself to the rest of Europe. Obviously playing for the World Cup next year but could also be the last season he is with us. Played blinders recently! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14013 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 The season he announced himself to the rest of europe was when he was about 22 tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4222 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Aye and he wasnt too bad in in our 5th place finish either. Would love to see the like of Hazard or Cazorla try and score the goal he did versus Bolton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17642 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Remi, Diaby, Benzema, Nasri, Ben Arfa were all part of that side (menez i think as well) Ben Arfa had a run in with diaby http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tl0B15JNGpU there's a documentary that followed them all about http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhJwLeBxn-k This is ringing a bell now...cheers for putting that up Clairefontaine is the French FA's academy?...

Tooj 17 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Ben Arfa told France Football: “At 26 years old, I still have plenty of time in front of me. I am not about to describe my career prior to retirement.“I know some will again think that I am mad but I still dream for example of the Ballon d’Or. I am convinced that this is still possible.“It is forbidden to dream? I disappointed a lot of people over the past years, I have even annoyed many too, no doubt. But those people were right. I was not very professional.“I think I gradually changed as I have grown up. I have understood some basic stuff with regards to the strength that a community brings.“I still believe that one day I will be the best player in the world. But my biggest victory will not be that one. It will be of becoming a well-rounded man after overcoming so many obstacles.” http://tyneandwear.sky.com/newcastleunited/article/81892/newcastle-uniteds-hatem-ben-arfa-dreaming-of-balon-dor-win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 If he does stay injury free this season then lets hope we do see the best of him, as he'll be flogged at the first opportunity in the summer I should imagine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should really drop this selling club bollocks as we're a lot better than most clubs in that respect. Every window we keep hearing Tiotes going, Kruls going, Coloccini etc etc. Other than Carroll for the deal of the century, who's the last "purple" player we sold ? Ba or Enrique we had no say. Barton and Nolan turned down deals to stay. We've renewed the likes of Coloccini (when no one thought we would) and Krul and look as though we are in the process of doing the same with HBA. Sure everyone has their price, but at least our prices are very high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a high price. How did we have no say on Ba or Enrique? Pay them more and they'll stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure everyone has their price, but at least our prices are very high. This is actually a fair point - although I do feel like we actively try to sell the players even if its for high prices. And remember that the chances are we'll only see about half of the amount reinvested. I reckon we'd have taken 15 for Cabaye even though we frequently said it would be 20+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then went AWOL on twitter and burnt all his bridges. As for Insulting I think given the number of appearances he put in and how we stuck by him, people will have different views on what constitutes insulting. Nolan was replaced by Cabaye and would have been an old squad player. Enrique refused to enter negotiations and "wanted to play for a top 6 club".... Ba had a release clause.
