Ronaldo Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I wouldn't say he played a big part in us finishing 5th. Not compared to the likes of Ba, Cisse, Coloccini, Cabaye, Krul and Ben Arfa anyways. We had 25 points from our first 11 games did we not? He was pretty much as good as anyone in those first 11 games for me. If Ben Arfa played a big part, Best certainly did.

Don't think Best's performances were on the same level as those I have mentioned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Definitely had a strong contribution and I think it's been underappreciated/acknowledged a bit. Did a lot of the pressing and hassling work for Ba and always worked his socks off while always maintaining a presence. Was always pushing for first team football with us and it's good to see him wanting to play regularly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Decent fee, will give him first team football, and will help towards finding a higher quality replacement. Good deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Played well in spells and scored some vital goals but upper-Championship is his level. £3m is a ridiculously good fee. Good luck Bestworth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Bestworth We were 3rd in November with him in the no.9 role. I don't think that's a Championship player. But we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Best of luck to him. Sad to seem him leave as I think he's been a decent player. Saying that, I think if we are about to move on the higher placed in the PL, he should be one of our lads to leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is physically incapable of playing more than 20 minutes and another is capable of 70 minutes at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
