James Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 With regards to the "undisclosed fee" I recall there being a rule that we do have to pay Rennes a very small fee to account for the fact that they trained him. but it is in the hundreds of thousands.

Wullie Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 So Ben Arfa has persuaded all 3 signings to join. We've probably whacked something in his contract on the sly so that he's not getting paid while he's injured so he's working in recruitment to make ends meet. "'Allo 'allo, is zat Daniel Sturridge...?" Get it done lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Didn't Ben Arfa's agent say months back how the way we were treating him (Ashley and/or Llambias flying out to visit him, etc) wasn't going unnoticed by French players? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Damn, if Ben Arfa comes back and starts performing like the Everton game straight away I don't think I'll be able to control my man love for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 So what's the deal with his injury, is he likely to miss some of the coming season too? Think I read somewhere he said he could play the last game of last season if he needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 So what's the deal with his injury, is he likely to miss some of the coming season too? He should be fine - he claims he has been fit for some time and that he could even have played a part in the final match for rennnes so as things stand he is good to go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Ben Arfa's already earned his transfer fee and wages by convincing these three players to join. Fantastic player and lead negotiator in one, what a man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Ah right, cheers, just that French article said something like "we won't seem him for a good while".

Fenham Mag Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Carver has also dismissed fears about his injury record – indicating that Marveaux was fit towards the end of the season but left unused as his club Rennes knew he was leaving. “There have been question marks over his injuries, but one reason he didn’t play towards the end of last season was that the club knew he was leaving,” added Carver.
