alpal78 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 He was brilliant against Italy though. I thought Italy were the better team - or atleast better to watch - but Iniesta was far and away the best player on the pitch. Disagree, Spain had trouble playing their normal possession football especially in the first half as Pirlo had the better of Iniesta and was dictating play. Quite a few major football websites gave Pirlo the MOM in that match. In any case even if Iniesta played a blinder against Italy (which he didn't), which is 1 in 3, it's hardly enough to say that he has been brilliant in Euros which was the original point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpal78 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Hatem Ben Arfa is decent too. Yup, I'm happy to refocus this thread back to HBA. Just have to say that anyone checking those links can see how Sewelly has been very selective with how he presented 'facts'. Iniesta was joint highest with a few others on sky sports and on some of those links, he was highest only in the fans voting column where presumably Iniesta bumming fans like Sewelly voted in for their footballing god. Soccernet had Pirlo as MOM. Iniesta has yet to lit up the tournament. Cant wait for HBA to school him in their upcoming match. Now back to HBA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I was selective in that I posted numerous links that agreed with my own opinion that Iniesta played very well in that game and a few that agreed he was the best on the pitch? That is not selective. In fact I merely plucked the first results from a Google search. I don't know why you've put the word facts in inverted commars either. I never mentioned the word 'facts' because we're not discussion facts, what I have posted are merely opinions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bmoregeordie Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Dear Arsene and Roman: Hatem Ben Arfa is a hothead. He would be very bad for your clubhouse. Sorry to waste your time.

sugoinufc Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 dont know if posted already or true? but after the sweden france game...french players started "fightning", nasri and diarra had to be stopped by ribery. Ben arfa picked up the mobil as it rang during Blancs speech. Blanc was not happy with this and arfa answered back "why he was subbed when other players played worse than him". not good arfa....not good french team spirit!!!
