Skirge Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Magpies have Ben Arfa option Hughton happy to have brought in France winger Chris Hughton has confirmed Newcastle United do have the option to sign on-loan winger Hatem Ben Arfa on a permanent basis. Ben Arfa joined the Magpies from Marseille before the close of the transfer window and marked his first start for the club with a stunning winner at Everton on Saturday. He was attracting interest from several clubs, with Werder Bremen having made a concerted attempt to bring the France international to the Bundesliga. However, Ben Arfa always made a switch to St James' Park his priority and Hughton is happy with the wide-man's early impact. "We have a loan with an option to sign him," said Hughton after the 1-0 win at Everton. "We had a lot of competition to get him, but the lad was desperate to join us, which is why we pushed so hard for him. "He had a very good full debut. We brought him here because we don't have many options on the left. "He was a big part of a good team performance. Goodison isn't always the best place to come after a home defeat, but we were excellent from first to last." http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11678_6386678,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I wanna know how fast it was had to be 90mhp'ish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 90mph? Probably more like 60-70 to be honest, around about the 90 mark and it would probably be the fastest shot ever recorded Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 90mph? Probably more like 60-70 to be honest, around about the 90 mark and it would probably be the fastest shot ever recorded Not really, as the fastest goal is about 130mph. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatwax Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 90mph? Probably more like 60-70 to be honest, around about the 90 mark and it would probably be the fastest shot ever recorded Martins' goal against Spurs in his first season was about 89mph I believe. EDIT: Just checked ,it was 84mph. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Peter Lorimer,Brian Kilcline and Jimmy Case all had shots far harder than Martins or Yeboahs goals,I would think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 One of the best moments for me was when he was pushing Barton away from a confrontation with the Everton player trying to calm him down. I assumed HBA was a bit of a head case so it was great to see him showing some responsibility for the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be a nutter to get between Joey Barton and a victim credit to him for that though being a new lad that was a very good thing to see.
