Sifu Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Shame much of the excitement about the midfield partnership of Tiote and Cabaye has dissipated after they both seem to be a) being bypassed by high balls b) are both quite deep lying at present ...and, as usual, we're back to hoping we play decent football when HBA returns from injury! Sounds about right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Can he play left back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is he training regularly with your team now ? Any news on him being available for the Forest game ? Don't think he will play this match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeloEmre Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Saw him on a video from the training ground last week, and he was playing with the rest of the team then. Hopefully his recovery is going well, and that he wont get any reactions on his injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Would love to see him get a run out against Forest. Going down to the match, he'll get a cracking reception if he comes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mimifrench Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Anyway, if he wants to be part of the French squad in the 2012 Euro, he has to be performant with his/your club, and this very quickly... But i fear he'll be too short for that great event. It is the same with Cabaye, i mean the fact that they both have the 2012 euro "in sights" will force them to do a great season with NUFC.

BeloEmre Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Pardew said on his pre Villa presser today that he's trained very well and there is a chance that he could feature against Forest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 He's in full training now. Was skeptical of the Forest date initially but seems likely if he doesn't have another setback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Don't really see what the difference between giving him 20 mins against Villa or waiting till 3 days later would be, might aswell include him on the bench on Saturday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1964 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 We are getting very excited about a couple of games that he's played. One tremendous goal but are our expectations overly high? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Not really when you think "Is Ben Arfa better than Shola? Will he provide more of a link between midfield and attack?" He doesn't need to come back as Messi but unless his leg really was put on the wrong way round he will be an improvement on what we currently have in terms of his ability and the style we would then be able to play (hopefully less hoof ball). He should also give Cabaye more opportunity to do what he does best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 We are getting very excited about a couple of games that he's played. One tremendous goal but are our expectations overly high? One player - particularly in that position - can make a big difference to a side (eg Bellamy, Beardsley). I have high hopes of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I think he really could prove to be the missing piece of the puzzle in our midfield. What we appear to be missing the most is a link between the centre of the park and our strikers... I have no concerns about his injury record, just think he has been unlucky on two occasions. I do however feel that he should under no circumstances be rushed back. Give it till October if needs be... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I understand caution but if he is back in full training now 6 weeks seems a bit much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colocho Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I understand caution but if he is back in full training now 6 weeks seems a bit much. Early-October then, just think he should receive as much rehab as possible. He's 'earmarked' for Forest away? Wouldn't want him to feature in that match whatsoever when we have Blackburn at home a few days later... Would he be 'ready' to start away at Wolves the following weekend. Wouldn't want him involved in that at all, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
