cp40 Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 When i read Smb, its like they are talking about some really good football side- yet everytime Ive watched Sunderland they have been uttter s****- especially 5-1. Should be a nice easy victory for you at our place next week then if we are that bad. Well im not gonna make the same mistake thousands of your lot made before comming over here to give us a lesson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Didn't someone on RTG reckon that Danny Welbeck is miles better than Ben Arfa? I would rather have Welbeck than Ben Afra on the footage I have seen this season and I'm not having a pop at Arfa as I haven't seen a great deal of him to make an accurate assessment but Welbeck is going to be a top player. I've seen Ben Arfa twice when Newcastle have been on the box,once was a Sunday afternoon game and he got took off early in second half(can't remember who it was against) and in all honesty thought he was very average and the other game was Man City when he got injured so obviously can't judge him on that. Your criteria for the comparison is massively hypocritical, you've based Ben Arfa on 2 matches where he's in a new country etc, in the same period of matches Welbeck had done nowt, looked incredibly poor and your fans had already written him off. Even the best players have off games but Welbeck's had some time to swing your head around. Ben Arfa is on a different level of player, literally could be one of the world's top players if he gets his attitude sorted accordingly, Welbeck at best can be a nothing more than a Euro League player.

Guest Heneage Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Does Wellbeck not share the same risk that Fraizer Campbell did? Overpriced because he came through Man United's academy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 it was only a few months ago the unwashed view on Welbeck was that he was a pile of shit, and rumours came out they'd taken him as Bruce was doing SAF a favour. oh how fickle fans are...

You don't even know the lads name (Arfa ), let alone enough about his ability to compare. You've seen him play one match (his one less then impressive performance) and like so many other Mackems obviously haven't even heard of him prior to coming here (despite him being one of the most promising players in Europe over the last several years). Welbeck's a decent to good player, but his Footballing ability isn't in the same league as Ben Arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Shame Villa couldn't have clung on so we could have went into the derby knowing a win could send us above them, but this is well set up to be a great game with both teams' form.
