@GFN_France: France Football: Hatem Ben Arfa and Alan Pardew have made up, Newcastle will not be transfer listing the player, they say. #NUFC

 

He probably realised after Stoke, his best friend right now should be Ben Arfa and only Ben Arfa, regardless if 'senior players' think otherwise. The fans made it perfectly clear at Stoke who they have sided with. Although Pardew/fans were unfortunate that he came on and got clattered within seconds and hobbled around for 20 minutes.

I think we'll see Ben Arfa this weekend. Pardew needs to save his own skin too much.

 

Aye, he's the only player that can muster something to save him.

 

Hope he'll nutmeg all of Swansea but turn around in front of goal and smack it up Pardew's face instead.

It's win/win for Pardew. Win and it was him bringing in a remotivated HBA and appeasing the fans. Lose and it's well the fans know fuck all, fuck you HBA.

I can't believe that Pardew thought it was a good idea to say that one of the reasons for not playing Ben Arfa was due to the rest of the players not wanting him in the team because they couldn't trust him.  Apart from again deflecting the blame away from himself, he is also saying that he is allowing the players to dictate team selection which makes him look weak and it also reflects badly on the players.

 

If he picks Ben Arfa on Saturday, it will be a desperate attempt to keep the fans onside.

This guy :lol:

 

@lee_ryder: France Football say Pardew told Ben Arfa:  "I ​​count on you until the end of the season." #nufc

 

Also:

 

@lee_ryder: FF also say Pardew said: "Next year, if you're still there, you'll play if you deserve it." #nufc

 

So basically he'll save Pardew this season, then be on the bench after 4 games next season  :lol:

"I know I've fucked you over all season, made you rot on the bench and blamed you for every loss I've gifted you a cameo in, but the shits hit the fan and I'm up against it now. If you could just save my bacon, that'll get the fans back on side, how does that sound to you Hatem? Oh and I'll make some vague promise about playing you next season to get you motivated. We all cool now yeah?"

I know it's really unprofessional and it's something I'd normally object to but if I was Ben Arfa I'd tell him to get fucked, throw in a transfer request and refuse to play. Take the fine and watch him squirm.

Exactly what I was thinking, why would you want to play for someone who has blatantly berated you publicly at every opportunity? It's a double edged sword, play and possibly save the guy who's wrecking your team and more pertinently your own career or don't play and prove everything he's said about your attitude right.
