Dave Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 'I haven't really studied what went on with France at the Euros and I won't get the real version until I speak to Hatem. 'He doesn't come back until a lot later in pre-season because he and Yohan Cabaye need some rest. 'Certainly I will have a conversation with him because I want him to pick up where he left off for us, which was in a good place.' = Wayward Ben Arfa faces grilling from Newcastle boss Pardew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BEN BEN BEN ARFA Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 http://le10sport.com/football/france/equipe-de-france/edf-ben-arfa-ne-se-sent-pas-coupable-67732 EDF: Ben Arfa "does not feel guilty" Again target of criticism for his behavior during the non-sport Euro, Hatem Ben Arfa denies all charges that were charged and rejects the label of troublemaker. Shows a close. For his comeback in Blue, Hatem Ben Arfa has seen its French past him reappear in the face. Media accusing him again of behavior problems in the locker room and with Laurent Blanc, the coach. Speculate that the person rejects en bloc. "The criticism he is the victim are not justified. It is very well with the group, the coach, with everyone. He feels guilty about anything, says, irritated, a relative. We make amalgams. It's like the case Zahia, we put in the same bag of players who have nothing to do with some behavior problems that have arisen. He did nothing at all. Instead, he was blameless, he was happy to be there, he had a smile all the time. But we still try to pass it to the ugly duckling. " "Psychologically, it is not reached" Currently on holiday in Turkey, before starting a new season with Newcastle, Ben Arfa does not want to react too soon to criticism it is the target not to revive the controversy. "There he decompresses and he will speak on website in due course, this always refers intimate. Today he has no interest in talking because it will turn against him, as usual. "But one thing is certain, the playmaker of the Magpies is not affected by all this controversy. "Psychologically, it is not met at all, confirms its close. It's part of the trade. It is prepared for that. He already knew that anyway and worse. Whoever is not able to cash it, he must exchange business. It is fair shake and disappointed by the defeat of one thing: the elimination. " Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Spiria Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 HATEM BEN ARFA must bring more consistency to his game before he can be considered to be a top-class player. Newcastle manager Alan Pardew will tell his flamboyant Frenchman that he has to produce in every single game, which was a level he didn’t quite reach last season. The 25-year-old is the most naturally gifted player at St James’ Park and scored some remarkable goals in the previous campaign, with his individual effort against Bolton in April one of the best ever seen at the stadium. But his boss will demand even more from Ben Arfa over the coming weeks and months. Pardew said: “All my players will tell you that Hatem has talent that a lot of them would dream of. It’s now a case for him to bring it to the table. “There were games last year when he did and there were a lot of games when he didn’t. Hatem has to bring consistency into his game. “There is no doubt about him producing the work rate that we ask of him, it’s now about how many times can he can produce some magic on to the pitch and how often.

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I think AP is playing a dangerous game This 'he's class but effort/attitude not always the best' is only going to rub with HBA for so long I think ultimately, if AP got a £10m + bid for him, he would go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TherealnorthernTOON Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 If we are to better the season we've just had Ben Arfa is the one who has to be the difference. And not just every 3rd or 4th game. Every game, atleast every 2nd game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand the final part of your comment tbh, there's no way that is true. Pardew knows what ability he has and that is the reason he tries to make him push himself that bit further. No chance he would 'let him go' for £10m, nor does it have anything to do with Pardew about transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
