ponsaelius Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Aye I know, but its a long shot to become Arsenal in one summer. Cabaye for instance has a similar record to Bruno Cheyrou. I'm playing devils advocate here, I think we will do well next season. Houllier signed shit on the back of a world cup. My dad thinks British players are more important than they are imo. What does he think about the man you're named after? il Chino Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginola Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 He won't have a clue. Never watches anything not involving English teams. Eh? Then surely he wouldn't have a clue about our French signings that haven't played in England? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Loved Recoba, class player. Actually laughed when he scored that goal against us at SJP, was just ridiculous. Gets brought on and 2 touches later he's curled a peach into the top corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mimifrench Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I know and i understand why some of you are still not absolutely convinced by Hba (in term of loyalty in the fture for example), considering his behaviour in the past with some clubs... but i really think he won't do the same with nufc mainly because you've bring him something special and help him during his recovery. I think he won't leave until he pays the club back for it suport. I hope he'll do like this but if it's not the case he'll be seriously an idiot ! And i repeat again in the past when he behaved not well with OM or Lyon it was because THEY did something bad/wrong to him, not the contrary...

The Inter side was something else. Probably had something to do with the fact the creator of PES (Seabass) is a massive Inter Milan fan hence them always appearing stronger in comparison to other teams statistically stronger...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I love passing and tactics and all that, but there's nothing like a player who can go past people with the ball at pace. So direct and intelligent as well, can't wait to see him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then surely he wouldn't have a clue about our French signings that haven't played in England? Agree completely. Think its a fear of the unknown. A lot of mags will be sceptical until the see our new lads play. Loved Recoba too. I just wish he could have enjoyed some of the recent success at Inter. Though perhaps him being gone was a reason for the success.. Mourinho wouldn't have had him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 It's odd how things turn out. If he hadn't had the injury, he might well have had a frustrating season as an individual maverick trying to make things happen in a fairly ordinary side. It may all have ended with him being keen to move. As it is, I think he's going to be coming into a team that's much more set up to his style of play, and where there's less pressure on him because he won't be our only real danger man.

Hanshithispantz Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Yeah, always best to just look for the positives. Our treatment of him has also raised our profile some in France, maybe we wouldn't have gotten Cabaye/Marveaux, you never know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I do get what you mean btw) What a player. Most players when they suffer even a moderate injury would just cover their face on the way out. HBA somehow decided to wave to the fans after a double leg break, that takes character, I have a feeling that unless he gets a crazy offer from the likes Barcelona, Madrid or Man Utd, he will be with us for a good few years.

Actually, i over looked thefact that he waved to the fans while he was probably in a lot of pain with a broken leg on a stretcher. That was a realtouch of class, imo.

The 25-year-old spoke to nufcTV earlier this week and admitted: "I saw him and spoke with him about Newcastle. "He told me that he was very happy to be here and he told me about the fans, everyone at the club, the stadium. It was a good thing." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
