Skirge Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Still think putting him on the wing would be a silly thing to do. Especially away from home. Our fullbacks need protection. He wouldn't be disciplined enough to cover Simpson. Haddaway man you don't leave out a player like him because you're worrying about Norwich. Obertan gives less protection than Laurent Robert did but with the added bonus of having zero talent. Very true, neither HBA or Obertan offer much protection to the fulback, so then its a good idea to go wit the best attacking option, cannot understand why pick Obertan over HBA.

Guest Benarfanufc10 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 On the plus side he would probably have got the blame if we'd lost so at least he's avoided that. Pardew hates ben arfa that's reality why a player it's verygood vs city good vs man u and plays 45 mn chealsea not good but not bad why not play one mn vs norwich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Should/could play ahead of Obertan with no negatives and a lot of positives. Pardew worries me at times with this apparent stubborn attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't be disciplined enough to cover Simpson. It's stupid , ben arfa plays on the wing CL OL OM FRENCH TEAM and he was a good protection fullback it is not colo but he was better obertan in protection Then why did you attempt to cultivate an argument with me every single time I said he shouldn't be up front? Because ben arfa is very good in 10 (4-4-1-1)but pardew not plays that formation Ben arfa isnt' 9 (for kick and rush ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkhead Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I'm afraid Pardew is making a big mistake here. It's obvious that even off-form and unfit Ben Arfa is our best option for the RW spot. He can only get better and Pardew must help him accomplish that for the sake of the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 How the fuck Obertan can keep Ben Arfa out of the side on this form, I mean it's not like Obertan offers anything defensively anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I've said this multiple times tonight, but surely the world does not end if he's played on the wing? Surely he'd be better there than Obertan or Sammy? He was on the wing when he scored that goal against Everton... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 What do you see as Hatem Ben Arfa’s best position? He’s a number ten, playing behind the centre forward. He is a very special player and that’s the only place I see him playing, he’s not a wide player and the only time I would choose to put him out there is maybe if during a game I needed him to do a job and see the game out.

He started three games in a row against the best teams in the division after being out for a season and having to deal with a set back. I think it's fair to say he could be slightly knackered. He should've come on today, I'll give you that, but people going on about transfer requests is laughable, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
