Guest mimifrench Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Do you think it will be very harmful for Ben arfa to not have had a veritable pre-season, i mean he was in a very good form in July according to his agent and then has been injured... I just don't understand why Hba isn't put with the reserve, even if it is for 1 or 2 matches, you know just in order to find again some pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Mimi - he probably will play in the reserves before Nottingham & he will play a couple of games with them no doubt! He will only be a substitute at Forest! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cup game will probably offer a little more for him...not as good competition as the league, but will be higher pace and more important than a reserve game. Then again, lower league teams have a tendancy to tackle harder... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be going to that - shame I'll be in with the f***ing Forest lot. I did that when we played them in the Championship. An uncomfortable experience tbh though I was sat in the student area and they're a lot more tolerable I guess (even though the lad next to me was annoying).

Yes, maybe like you did against Scunthorpe (?)... which is quite understandable considering cup matches aren't exactly the same as those of the premier league. But i really think, if your team stay 'inuryless" that you coud do something good, why not winning the Cup ? Last season, Birmingham City won it so you could do it... By the way, when was the last NUFC trophee ? I just can't imagine what the reactions over here would be if you win trophees again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, when was the last NUFC trophee ? I just can't imagine what the reactions over here would be if you win trophees again. Well that's the hope anyway. I, for one, would love for us to go on a cup run and like you've said, Birmingham did it last season so I don't see why we shouldn't aim for the cups. In terms of our last trophy, our last domestic one was when we won the Championship in the promotion season [2009-2010] (if that counts, otherwise it was the FA Cup in 1955). Our last major trophy was in 1969 when we won the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (what is now the Europa League). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tunisia Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I was in Kansas City and saw the tackle that took him out - it was an unusually strong one, definitely from behind, definitely unnecessary. But it's reassuring because both injuries came on unusual tackles. This isn't someone like Kieron Dyer breaking down every time he gets on the pitch. Ben Arfa looked lively and strong in training - I watched two training sessions prior to the match and he was quite lively (at one point, during an exercise involving 7-a-side play and two very small goals, he threaded a brilliant ball through to Shola, only for Shola to miss from literally less than a yard out). In the match itself he linked up well with Marveaux and had the best chance. I'm always worried because of the injuries, but it seems to be far more about being unlucky than being injury-prone. Ben Arfa has almost never been hurt. He already had a lot of bad players violent blow, but never hurt. were his only blesseurs groin. otherwise it has already been twice a poor preparation, it is not good for a player who wants to play all year, he ended up suffering the poor preparation. that does it play the majority of the championship with great quality I hope. with the two that are good scavengers and Tiote Cabaye, and mounted Santon in attack, it is certain that Ben Arfa will be little to recover the ball and more choice of going forward. I just not sure what attaquand. you need a fast player who makes the calls of balls at the right time if Ben Arfa will go alone to the keeper. I do not know what to make of BA. otherwise, for your very nice stadium, you will enlarge? there is enough to add bleachers making it even more atmosphere and revenue.

ExiledGeordie Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Excellent news. So presuming all goes well is/was the plan to play him behind the striker so a team something like: Krul Simpson Taylor Colo Santon Obertan/Marv Tiote Cabaye Jonas Ben Arfa Ba/Best/Shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
