Because they like to talk about Newcastle more than Sunderland because generally over the course of the past 20-30 years we have done better than them, we have a better stadium, we're more high profile, even when the club is in a bad state we are generally better than them, they've been in the 3rd flight etc etc, For an additional comparison - We have Ben Arfa & they have Sessangnon. But they think Sess is better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BEN BEN BEN ARFA Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Ben Arfa has launched a challenge in Newcastle Hatem Ben Arfa does not waste time adapting it to Newcastle. The club since last season, HBA has not really been able to integrate into the Magpies' dressing room but put on a very specific method to achieve this. For him, communication is IM-PE-RA-TIVE. According to the British press, the former player of the OM has launched a challenge to all of its French partners. He wants none of them speak a word of French and talk only in English to progress faster in the language of Shakespeare. Belgian translator at their disposal The leaders of the Magpies have already put the translator Belgian Philippe Albert at their disposal. "There are a bunch of French players here, but everyone speaks English, it will improve our communication, ensures Sylvain Marveaux. We're all really happy to be here. We still have much to contribute to the future. "We expect to see it all. http://www.le10sport.com/Football/Foot-Anglais/Ben-Arfa-a-lance-un-pari-a-Newcastle-260952542.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 What has he done to be as appreciate bloke Albert. Philippe Albert? He is a cult hero here because of his style of playing from central defence, in particular because of a fantastic goal he scored against Manchester United when we beat them 5-0 almost exactly fifteen years ago (96/97 season). Have a look on video sharing websites if you haven't seen that goal before ("Philippe Albert Goal Newcastle 5-0 Man Utd"). He was a lovely player to watch and constantly rampaged forward to join in attacks, while his left-foot was a bit of a wand for such a big guy. He used to have a little set-piece routine with David Ginola that I loved as a kid (scoop and volley). I think a lot of people associate him along with the likes of Asprilla and Ginola as real jewels in our crown during some of the best years in the recent history of this club, mainly because of their approach to the game and the flair they demonstrated. I personally have a massive amount of love for Albert, not least for his fantastic moustache, because I’ve never seen anybody quite like him in his position in this country. Thomas Vermaelen was showing some echoes of Albert in his early days at Arsenal – although with more brute force than what I would call “class” – and I’ve often wondered if he considers him an inspiration given their heritage.

GuyP Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 That story would have been verging on sexual if Ben Arfa had personally hired Albert to teach them all English, in what sounded quite a forceful manner...if he also got Ollie Bernard and Sibierski in as backups it would been perfect...
