He's done ok, but not as good as I thought he would. Plays as an attacking midfield player for PSV. Still, time is on his side. Another player who has left Feyenoord (after being linked with us) is Leroy Fer: he's also had some trouble getting used to his new surroundings at Twente, but seems to be doing better now. Meanwhile, Feyenoord (my hometown club) aren't doing too bad themselves this season, and could still be champions. A young midfielder worth keeping a close eye on is Jordy Clasie, and of course there's John Guidetti who looks destined to great things. Quite a few other interesting youngsters in the Eredivisie at the moment, notably Maher, Ola John, Narsingh, Eriksen, Dost, (Luuk) de Jong. Here's hoping Graham Carr is keeping tabs on the next generation of Van Persie's and Sneijders. Cheers mate! My impression of him has always been that he's quite raw, not that i know for sure tbh. I would like to think that Carr has great knowledge, and hopefully will find us some more gems

Maher? Position?

Im listening.

If i was Pardew i would have switched him to the left side in the second half as we simply couldn't get the ball out to the right hand side often enough. Then Ba, off the ball could sneak in from the right. A bit surprised this didn't happen tbh.

I want to see him so much, ripping England to shreds.

Every NO member should bombard the french press that we want Ben Arfa in Blanc's team. Then he selects him, Ben Arfa so happy, signs new 10 year deal.

Has Blanc been asked lately about Ben Arfa's chances of being included for the euros? I mean, surely the press/media talk quite a lot about this subject, especially after the last couple of weeks where he's been class. Best players should go for each nation imo, simple as.

Bargain, better defender than Boum as well!

Unbelievable: How's Wijnaldum doing these days? Seen a bit of him, not much this season though. I saw him score a couple of goals from midfield, making some good runs in to the box. Is he playing more centrally these days? He used to play more as a wing/forward before iirc. If we go for a CM i would like to see us go for an offensive player that can make nice forward runs from midfield, with/without the ball, like Kieron Dyer used to at his best, but with a bit more end product, I love Cabaye and Tiote, but if we go 4-3-3 i would like to see someone a little bit more different from them with some pace.

Read that earlier as well, mong.

I bet the fucker earns a fortune.

Only seen him on the tube, looks very good going by that. How much would he cost? 8m?

Can see him go to Arsenal =/ Seriously, how many players do they need for the same position.

Definitely. Looks class. Noot seen much of him apart from the goals. Strengths?

Amalfitano

Belhanda and Mbiwa =P

Never ever been to a forum with "people" like them, Jesus Christ.

wum

Apparently Tioté brought a full grown horse with him, that he took down and killed on a ranch somewhere before lunch, painted it black and white as well to match the theme.

+1

Ooops. But im sure we've scouted him. Would love him here.

Ask Optimistic Nut, he should be able to confirm this somehow, seems to find/read a lot of NUFC stuff in France (if there's something available online i don't know)

He's the same style as Ben Arfa, 22 years old, plays as an attacking cm or a left/right sided forward. Brilliant vision and technical ability.
