Ginola Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 How does this goal compare to his goal against Blackburn? I prefer this one. Aye, me too. Both ridiculously good, but this one just edges it. Jesus fucking christ what a goal man! I'm with Pards and preferred the Blackburn goal. Both were magnificent though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 From the Beebs text commentary Goal - Hatem Ben Arfa - Newcastle 1 - 0 Bolton Hatem Ben Arfa scores a goal from inside the box to the bottom left corner of the goal. Newcastle 1-0 Bolton. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 It's like everything else went into slow mo. It's like he stopped time and bent space. It's pure darkside stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Stunning and so on don't cut really. Goal of the season, Messi George Weah-esque really. THAT good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 In context and content this was a better goal IMO. The fact that it set us on our way to 3 points at this stage in the season, keeping us in the mix, edges it for me. Got to be goal of the month if not goal of the season. Got to be.

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Not sure tbh Today was all about pure pace Blackburn was pace and trickery The Blackburn one just and only just Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Pure pace, aye, but it was blistering. There he nearly set the pitch alight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 The goal was amazing, was in utter shock as he scored it - though I have no idea why I was shocked since I know Ben Arfa is capable of such goals I hope he goes to the Euro's and destroys England Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Goals like that are surely goals that most players will score once a career, and here we are comparing two of them from the same player in the same season Fwiw, I think the Blackburn one was probably the better goal, just, but there was more riding on this one so it meant more.

Mick Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I would love to see him score an easy goal, he's too one dimensional with these stunners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just makes it look easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Aye, Ben Arfa plays the most direct football in the premiership, boring bastard. My coverage was behind Sky, so when we scored i was watching to see who scored, then Ben Arfa picked up the ball and i was thinking "ok so he passes to Cisse and he scores", then he just keeps going, magic.

Yorkie Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Initially i thought he'd misplaced a pass to Cisse on approach to the box. When i saw the replay from behind, it was never in his head - it was actually a fucking tremendous touch that out-foxed two centre-backs. Just unreal. Love how we score at least one brilliant goal every week these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
