Hatem Ben Arfa

This should be enough to make him first name on the team sheet.

Brilliant goal.



AND FK YOU ITV.

That's not Ben Arfa, that's Messi

Hatem had some Strawberry Syrup before the run.

Did you and Mole really make the same post at the same time? :lol!:

Blackburn's left back will give birth to a beautiful baby in 9 months time.

John Henley deceived me

Rich mans Maradona/Messi

seriously that was so fking cool

If this doesnt convince Pardew that Ben Arfa belongs on the wing( with freedom to roam) then nothing will.........

Was waiting for this video all day, what a goal.

That finish

Once played in the same team as Benzema and was considered just as big a talent =Rich man's Ronaldo/Messi.

That's his first goal for Newcastle.....he has scored three beauties so far for them

Dat Everton Goal

Seriously tho......


Do it Pardew !

Chronicle saying Marveaux might be back in Febuary......

Having decent wingers

Ben GODFA for France n10

Trade Ben Arfa for Kaka = fair.

Ben Arfa is a selfish prick with a bad attitude. He failed at Lyon and then was average at Marseille. He is not even a sure starter at Newcastle. More like a player who will shine 2 months before disappearing.

That was a really briliant goal, Ben Arfa showing his skillz in Newcastle for 2 seasons now. Jewel

He's not a starter because the Manager believes he's a #10 and Demba Ba has practically been playing that role and we cant drop him.......

I would play him on the wing with license to roam tbh.

Demba Ba has been laying as a 10?

Who in gods name has been striking?

Leon Best.......

It's not really a #10 its like what Rooney does for Utd he drops off deep to get the ball from the midfield and passes it.........

Still stops Ben Arfa from playing behind striker tho and when Ba plays upfront on his own he isnt half the player imo.

Which is why i want a striker that compliments Ba.

I don't know that I can agree with you there. Ba hasn't been playing as a #10. He's been playing a more classic #9, holding up play and looking to be a bit of a target man up front. I would argue that he's only had to take on some of those #10 duties, because Best has been invisible since the first few fixtures of the season. Ameobi has been far better, and even he hasn't been overly influential. Because of a lack of other striking talent, Ba has been asked to be a complete forward, and he has excelled so far this season.

That said, I can't account for why Ben Arfa hasn't been starting games. He has shown a level of quality that Obertan can only aspire to at the moment. To be honest, I'm not convinced that Ben Arfa is really a #10. I think I agree with whoever said he should be played on the wing with a license to roam. Don't drop Ba, Drop Obertan, who has been less than stellar (though showing signs of progress).

Well DROR its kinda a mixture of two, he does soemthings required of a 10 and other things required of a 9 but either way it stops Ben Arfa playing.......


Kind of a weird 4-3-1-2 into a 4-4-2 mix........

Ben Arfa is actually outwide on the right but i cant do it lol.

Basically RAM with Gutierrez LCM/LM......
