Mick Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 He's a very good player but some of the hero worship he gets on here is pretty embarrassing to be honest. It's not and you shouldn't need telling that, he's a class player and football is about watching his type of player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I know this is from the press and not us (is it from .cock), but stuff like this is a bit cringeworthy iyam: And in a candid interview, one of the best players of his generation has lifted the lid on his biggest influences in football.

Even if he left I'd make a point of watching whoever he played for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is about love, joy and the celebration of Hatem Ben Arfa, stop this nonsense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hatem Ben Arfa reveals how he wants to be a Geordie football hero HATEM BEN ARFA is quick and straight to the point when asked about who his main influences were during his childhood. In a flash, Ben Arfa offers up “Diego Maradona”. However, it is clear his two years on Tyneside so far have not come without him dovetailing perfectly into the Geordie fans’ love for witnessing a true entertainer. Now the playmaker – who goes into the West Brom game tomorrow in what he describes as the form of his life – has spoken of his determination to become as popular as Paul Gascoigne and Peter Beardsley at St James’ Park. The mercurial Newcastle United star, brought up on a council estate in Clamart, played football in the street until it was dark and then went home to dream about emulating Diego Maradona. Ben Arfa has already shown he has what to takes to emulate the Argentine global icon who broke English hearts in 1986 with his Hand of God goal before mesmerising the world with that solo strike during the World Cup in Mexico. Of course, Ben Arfa has managed to produce something along those lines TWICE since recovering from a broken leg in the early days of his career on Tyneside, after weaving his way around the hallowed turf to score against Blackburn and Bolton last term. And in a candid interview, one of the best players of his generation has lifted the lid on his biggest influences in football. “When I was younger I loved Maradona and tried to be like him,” he said. “Gascoigne is another, of course I know who Paul Gascoigne is! “Everybody knows about him for what he does on the pitch. “He was a very good player.” Yet after just a few weeks at Newcastle, another Geordie icon who was regarded as one of the best players to have ever pulled on an England shirt caught the eye of another Ben Arfa – even if he didn’t quite recognise him at first glance. With a smile the Frenchman said: “When I first came here, we were training and Peter Beardsley joined in. “I said to him ‘You are a very good player’. “Then a few people told me about him. “I went home and typed his name into You Tube and I was amazed at how good he was – he was amazing. “Maybe I shouldn’t be surprised that he is still amazing at 51! “He’s a big player and I would like to be like him.” Having given himself a history lesson, Ben Arfa now wants to serve up more magic moments like Pedro and Co. And he said: “I want to bring fans off their seats at Newcastle. “I know that is part of the history here. “Step by step I want to entertain. The fans love players like Peter – if I could be like him it would be great.” Ben Arfa’s form this season has been nothing short of sensational in a black-and-white shirt. Just 12 months ago he was battling back from injury and struggling to get into Alan Pardew’s unbeaten team. But now he couldn’t be happier, and said: “I’m very happy – I just love playing football. “When I play, I’m happy. I like to work hard every week and give my maximum for the club. “I am very happy to be able to do what I know on the pitch. “The fans like that. When we win the game and I have been able to play my football, it makes me smile even more. “Because when I play my football and we don’t win, I’m not happy at all. It is all about winning.” No doubt the rest of the media will turn that into a 'come and get me' plea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Anyone labeling someone else a "dullard" probably shouldn't end their sentence with "like". What if the sentence was "The replacement of Ba for Cisse was like for like." or "The lemon meringue is not a desert that Tim will like."? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Fantastic player but it's visible even on the television when he's decided "ah, not our day... fuck it." Past a certain point in the game you just knew he was going to lose the ball every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Not a chance i'm going to lay into the guy who basically won us the game there. We're in mid-table almost entirely thanks to him and Ba. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
