Parky Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Ben Arfa has arrived at France's pre-Euro training camp and was all smiles according to reports. Read my TL for him talking to L'Equipe TV. "I was very, very tired during the last week or two of the season." "Now I've got my energy back and things are better again." "After the game against Germany, nobody even asked Blanc a question about me. Me playing the Euro was in the mind of nobody." "It did affect my pride. But I knew I'd come back. I'm a competitor and I want to win every match and win the tournament." "I've progressed in terms of my work for the team and doing the running to cover for my team-mates." very tired ? for all i want him to play at the euro's there's a part of me says "no, sit it out so you are 100% for the start of the season for us." It's important he plays big tournaments - still developing as a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 You could see he was shattered in the last couple of games, didnt seem to have that same spring in his step. We did play a few decent teams mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

juniatmoko Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 too long on his injury... he need to play over 90 min each time to get his stamina back... he shouldn't get rested otherwise he will not hit his peak stamina... i guess more intensive games like euro will help him out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 http://www.rmcsport.fr/images/article/550892.jpg Really hope he makes the final cut. Certainly deserves it imo, he'll make a massive difference to France's play (well, more than Nasri anyway!). Unleash the Hatem and the Yohan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I must say, until he joined the club I had no idea how loved by the french Ben Arfa is. I'm still not sure why? I know he class but it's almost as if he has a pop star following, ala Beckham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he class but it's almost as if he has a pop star following, ala Beckham. Because his talent was as good as Messi (this talent only appear from few in billion of people).... if he were focused since young... he should be on top of the world now. He has temperamental character & very closed personality so not many managers willing to nurture him. But every managers never dispute that he has incredible talent.

The fact he has got to train with the squad and for Blanc to see first hand how fit he is will only go to strengthen his case Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punk77 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Hatem goes back to Clair Fontaine. Contains a clip of him when he was around 14-15 years old too... Still cannot believe he plays for us. I fucking adore him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Colossus Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Those clips are from a documentary made about the little bairns in Clairefontaine. All in French like but still worth a watch to see how much he pisses all over the Mackem Messi. Few episodes of it are on Youpipe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
