Disco Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Does anyone find him frustrating anymore? At times, yes. Think that's down to him being our only creative force most of the time meaning he is trying to do to much a lot of the time though & playing with his head down too much.

madras Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 the only frustrating thing is him being stuck out wide a middle 4 so not getting into the positions where he's most dangerous, not getting enough ball, and even then if he has to play that wide he's on what i consider to be his least effective side (not because he's left footed but because he always seems tom play better that side) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyP Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Suarez is the closest thing to Ben Arfa in the league, in that he is very individual and talismanic in a sense, however , Ben Arfa isnt racist so... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachikoma Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Suarez has more in common with Bellamy than Ben Arfa, I think. The last player I've seen in the league who comes close to having Ben Arfa's dribbling ability and vision was Thierry Henry at his peak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I try to pull off HBA dribbles at 7-a-side now, they rarely work! Kids to learn a load about spacial awareness and the ability to make decisions at speed, it's frightening how he just push the ball into the smallest space where the defender can't reach it. And when he does nothing to fool a defender who thinks he's going to turn, it's beautiful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when he does nothing to fool a defender who thinks he's going to turn, it's beautiful. When I was about 9 I would play against the kids around this area, me vs 3-4 of them (sometimes including a lad who played Sunday league) and would destroy them so badly I think a few of them just gave up on football altogether. Somewhere along the line I completely lost any of that skill, started playing in defence because I liked to slide tackle () and got rapidly worse. I would have been one of the best in the world if I continued to play as an attacker, nailed on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachikoma Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I've got it backwards, was always one of the worst players on the pitch but I'm moving further and further up the pitch because I kept trying <_< I love trying Ben Arfa dribbles when I get the chance, but I think I've only made it work about 3 times in total.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I've got much better as I've got older, but I've still moved further back. Now I'm a reckless defender in the David Luiz mould. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 If right footed - drag the ball to the left, then quickly drag the ball forward between the legs. Might cause some anger amongst friends, but frankly, that just makes it feel even better. Simple and so effective. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Colossus Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I know the feel of being a frustrating player. I can do all the tricks in the world on my own in the kitchen or back garden, but get out on the pitch and I can barely control a pass and give it back. Frustrated genius.
