toondra Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 i m not agree when people say he keeps the ball too long. For me, people who say "oh he sould pass it to him, he is alone!!! oh he tried to pass his opponet it didn't work, greedy/etc" don't understand football. If he makes the pass to someone else, does it means we gonna have an attempt to score? The player he l'make the pass to will have to make the diffrence, it's so easy to make pass and wait, look barcelona. It's not to be greedy to not make the pass, it's to try to pass opponents to make spaces and create danger. I prefer ben arfa try to take two players and it doesn't work than pass to simpson all alone. If there was some talent in that team ok, but no one can create at the moment, even cabaye who i think is not as good as people think he is. More real footballers in this team, more link up and pass from hatem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Its ridiculous considering hes one of our few form players how our set up doesn't play to his strengths. Pardew accomodates ba demanding to be central, albeit on for fair enough, but ben arfa is our best plsyer and leaving him waay too deep and wide shackles him. With him one of our only threats we can't afford not to build the squad around him atm and we're bizarrely not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 thought he was pretty much our best player at the weekend. Only Taylor and Santon close to him. completed eight dribbles vs West Ham. West Ham as a team managed one between them (Modibo Maiga) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Massive over-reliance on him and he's coming from far too deep at the moment. Frustrating (this situation not because he's playing badly) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Massive over-reliance on him and he's coming from far too deep at the moment. Frustrating (this situation not because he's playing badly) Yeah he should never really need to come as deep as often as he does. He should be the player we want to release on a break, not passing it out from around our box. I guess if he did stay up forward more often he'd be accused of not doing enough defensive work, but there has to be a better balance for us where he can be available more on the break and more so when actually in the oppositions half.

High Five o Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Easy for our opponents, mark out HBA. Nufc will revert to long balls. We need a good Left winger, then they have to sides to worry about at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a good Left winger, then they have to sides to worry about at least. Season is screaming for Marveaux to step up for us tbh. Plays left wing, is left footed, has a great cross on him & takes great set pieces. All the things people have wanted this season. We bought him to enter the first team & injuries held him back. We really need him to step up now though with Jonas out, this is the best chance he'll have of forcing himself into the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
