Joe_F Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 L'Equipe v Lee Ryder...hmm. Why? L'Equipe hadn't suggested any sort of bid had gone in or was imminent. Just that Wenger might be interested. Ryder's just trying to appear itk by refuting something that hadn't been reported in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Wenger will just go and buy some 17 year old instead who will come good 200 years later Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 L'Equipe is as bad as The Sun for s*** made up rumours. Can't be having that like. But like most (French) newspapers, it has a random news in brief bit which I presume is where this Wenger rumour originates from. In short, it's the summer, rumours like this are to expected in every sort of newspaper. And about Ben Arfa, he's definitely staying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Doesn't Wenger pundit in France, probably just said something when doing that. He is a very Arsenal player though, small/lightweight/neeposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 He'd be a perfect upgrade on Nasri imo, and I suspect we may have had to worry if they hadn't blown money on Podolski already(not saying Podolski will be a failure but not as good as HBA imo) and suspect shoring up defensive midfield is a bigger priority now they got him and Giroud.

Jagten Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Ben Lyttleton Ben Lyttleton @benlyt Ben Arfa & Blanc clashed in dressing-room post Fra-Swe, after HBA was on phone, also said others deserved to be subbed before him. Tense Ben Lyttleton @benlyt To recap, L'Equipe saying French camp in disarray after dressing-room clashes btwn Ben Arfa-Blanc & Diarra-Nasri post Swe loss Sounds promising.

mattypnufc Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 To be honest, Ben Arfa is correct in this instance though. Ribery and Nasri were having far worse games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 there's his rebel image back, doubt he'll get played again Was always going to happen with players like Nasri, Ribery, Evra, Benzema and also Ben Arfa in one squad, one hotel for more than 1 week. Reminds me of some school trip where everything is hunky-dory at first but after some days, some people will always start clashing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Blanc seems to be an utter twat like but I thought in his time here Hatem had came to realise he cannot behave in that way, he is only going to hurt his own career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Blanc will probably get sacked and HBA will be in the next squad. Can't blame him, Blanc does have one of those faces you just want to slap. No manager seems capable of keeping control of the French national team dressing room. France will lose to Spain, and Blanc will be for the chop.

Cajun Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Hopefully he comes back feeling unloved, Pards puts his sexy arm around his shoulder and it convinces HBA that he wants to stay here for the rest of his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 It's Blanc's fault for not pushing his team to get a winner against England. They seemed content with a draw in the later stages of the match, probably thinking that they'll win their next two group games and top the group. Twats.

France will lose to Spain, and Blanc will be for the chop. They didn't need much fixing in this tournament really, they might still get it right (if they weren't playing Spain). Just get Benzema or someone else to actually play in and around the box and they would probably have beaten us comfortably. They've got to realise they can't all fanny about 30 yards from goal against two banks of four defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Five o Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 You can agree with him, but not with his behavior really. Its not a good way to handle it, he should know better. Personally i think media is exaggerating it, or i at least hope so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't shout back at your manager. Shameful behavior by HBA if true and a great way to destroy an International career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Genuinely don't give a fuck about his France career as long as we as a club don't affect his prospects. If he gets himself kicked out of the team for non-Newcastle related reasons all the better for us imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
