Mr Logic Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Kompany met Ben Arfa today. City was beatable. Not impressive at all. Shame Newcastle refused to play the most part in first half. What a load of garbage. Not really. For some reason we never closed down like we can first half, we afforded them too much respect imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Noticeable lack of Baggio and 3 Sleeps in here post match like. Don't tempt fate. Baggio : what a fuck ben arfa is bad player and he's not plays with ba The fact is ben arfa foul's and city wins This is exactly what I was going to say but couldn't find the words.

Guest Haris Vuckic Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I thought he was great today - good of Pardew to protect him once the 3rd went in and the game was truly lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him amuse us. He's funny. (the 25 first minutes of second half were just superb and I persist to say that NUFC was capable to rivalise with City today if they have played the first half like they begin the second ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Minusmensch Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Thought Ben Arfa did very well today, ad he was fuckin' superb at times. Did well with the ball, and passed very well. He's closing in at how we want to see him. Well done! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 There was a bit on the right wing where he had two men around him and I don't even know what he did but he got the ball away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of his observations are spot on when he's not in wind-up mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Ronaldo gets called out for being a wum when he's just being awkward/contrary. Then he goes into 'Wum mode'; once people have inaccurately prodded him. Vicious cycle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I thought we played the right way in the first half. Collectively we were very effective at both nullifying and getting the ball into the City half and making chances with it. An individual let us down badly.

Guest VaVaVoom Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Was very promising today and i think he will be fantastic in the number 10 role. Be good to see how he builds up a partnership with the frontman of choice. Ba, Best and Shola up until January and Maybe Maiga in the new year. I think its also going to be important that he builds up an understand with the whole of our midfield as he is likely to roam allover the final third. The link up between him and Cabaye could be magic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Looked very dangerous on the ball today, some of the runs that he made were fantastic. Was absolutely gutted for him when he hit the post after he just waltzed his way in between 3 defenders. More of the same against Man United next week, hopefully.
