sh74 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 IMO Pardew prefers to play 2 strikers.We did well with Ba and Best at the beginning of the season i think he tried Ben Arfa and i don't think he prefers it as much as 2 forwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Im a massive Ben Arfa fan but Benarfanufc10 all your doing is pissing alot of people off with your anti newcastle talk. Yeah alot of us would rather he plays but that's football. We aren't the manager so we cannot make the decisions. So all this "he should hand in transfer request" etc, isnt helping anybody. I love nufc and the fans but this is not my decision the history of ben arfa show he not support stay on the bench Pardew is good coach but ben arfa have not time (injury and clash with OM) He wants become holder in french team There's no I in team.

HE does seem to favour 442. SO no room for hba. I dont think hba will make it as central midfielder in this lge...hes too lazy off the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 It¨s easier to accept it when we are doing well. Why so surprised? It´s not like people haven´t complained about this before when we were winning as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VaVaVoom Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Suprised he didnt play but AP wanted a bit more muscle upfront i guess. I'd imagine Barfa will start behind Ba next weekend. Much stronger side with Colo and Tiote back too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Pardew has backed himself into a corner with the "Ben Arfa will only ever play number 10 role" comments - but maybe Marveaux's injury for the whole season will give Pardew the get out he needs. He can just say "Sylvain's injury means we ight have to re-think - maybe we could use Hatem on the flanks as Sylvain's injury has left us a little light." That's if he even fancies playing him as a winger of course Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Pardew has backed himself into a corner with the "Ben Arfa will only ever play number 10 role" comments I don't buy this at all, I think it's an overreaction to a throwaway comment TBH. Pardew could easily change his mind and play him wide if he wanted, he obviously just doesn't want to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Sammy, Obertan and Jonas won't dawdle on the ball in our half. Ben Arfa will, which is why Pardew is probably reluctant to play him in a position where he'll have to track back a lot and could potentially see a lot of the ball in our 1/3rd of the field. That's how I see it anyway, because from a purely attacking point of view he's undoubtedly the best winger we have.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

binnsy Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Whatever anyone thinks about HBA the simple facts are that both Best and Shola have shown more in their appearances this season than him. I've said it for weeks but if HBA is going to play i think the best way to play him his on the right and give him a similar role to how Modric played against us for Spurs at SJP, play on the right with the licence to come inside and link with the forwards and likes of cabaye and then drop back on the right when we don't have the ball.

I don't think anyone would have a problem with him been replaced by Best/Shola upfront, however he should be a cert starter with the likes of Obertan playing piss every week.
