Dave Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 The position he scored from was important too, it wasn't just a tap in. IIRC he'd previously trying playing a through-ball which didn't come off, but it came back to him. He spread it wide but importantly then got moving and drifted into a great position to score. Excellent pick out from Taylor and with his technique he made it look easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Looking sharp now. Needs a good run of games. We'll need his quality through the African Nations for starters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Lovely finish for the goal. If that had been beat it'd be in the Irish sea by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Not even gonna entertain the idea of him not starting on Friday. There is a weak Liverpool team there that 2 top class players like Ben Arfa and Ba could take advantage of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 2 assists and a goal in 357 minutes of football, or 4 ninety minute matches. Not a bad ratio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 2 assists and a goal in 357 minutes of football, or 4 ninety minute matches. Not a bad ratio. the pass for ba against WBA i thought was a poor pass at the time from level 7, when i got home and watched it it seemed more and more deliberate putting the ball into the perfect place for a strike on goal.

joeyt Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Thought he was going to do a Gosling when he came on and set up a goal for them with a misplaced pass Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Right here we go, back in business. Stupidly happy that he got his goal...hopefully we can go back to this novel idea of starting your best players every match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Ben Arfa should now be given a good run of games to settle into the team, he's put massive pressure on Pardew and I think he will get games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 2 assists and a goal in 357 minutes of football, or 4 ninety minute matches. Not a bad ratio. The run and resulting penalty at Manu was as much of an assist as anything. He's been a focal point in three of our last six goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw in to the mix the chance he put on a plate for Ba at City and him hitting the post, and he has shown what he brings to the team. So much better than playing Best there.

Mick Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 where would you play him ? If he's going to start after today then it will be in place of Best, I'd give him a free role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuv Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 The dynamics of how we played totally changed when he came on. Pre HBA- Hoof up to Ba and Best Post HBA Sub- Passing on the floor It must be to do with the way he drags players out of position etc etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
