Probably Giggs, but just saw these quotes and can't be arsed looking back:
"I like playing football but it's the manager's decision," he says. "Sometimes he says to us play football and sometimes he says to kick it. Before Yohan left we were very good but afterwards we didn't play any more and it's hard to win that way.
"We need to play more, to build more. Even if you lose you have to try and play more and lose with pride. Now when we lose we don't go down fighting. That's the biggest problem."
In mitigation, Pardew's hands have been tied by a lack of investment in the past two transfer windows. "If we want to be in the top four we have to sign some good players," agrees Ben Arfa.
"I'm hurting because everything is here – the supporters are the best, along with Liverpool's. The stadium's amazing, the city's good, everybody loves football, there's passion, everything is here."
He is said to be Mike Ashley's favourite player. "I like the owner and I want to stay," he says. "My dream is to get into the Champions League next season with Newcastle or win a cup. We'll see."
