AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Ben Arfa's trained well and 'will hopefully make more of an impact whether he starts or comes off the bench', according to Pardew. You little tease Pards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 My only worry is that Pardew might be rushing him back if Marveaux's out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 We need to rush him TBF. We have four games, which could define a part of history and he is our best player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I'm worried that there's so much expectation building up on him, he may try and do too much by himself because of it. He's best when he dribbles in only spells. Yes he's great at creating space for others, but it's only useful if he releases the ball. If he dribbles every time it gets predictable and his threat is lessened. He's a great player, but he's not always been consistent and given his injury troubles we can't expect him to win games by himself. Problem is, he needs time in a situation where there just isn't that much to give. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 He pretty much beat Liverpool single-handedly last season. I'd settle for that again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 He pretty much beat Liverpool single-handedly last season. I'd settle for that again. He'll lack the match sharpness to do that this time. Surely he won't play 90 mins, i reckon he'll come on with 20 or 30 mins to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Just had this flashback of him barnstorming around the pitch in the beginning of the season and then thinking also to him last season. My lord have we been deprived of his brilliance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

binnsy Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 sitting here on Thursday and everyone probably knows and accepts that he can't/won't play or last for 90 mins but imagine the fury and bad reaction should he come off after 65-70 mins and its 1-1 or god forbid we are 1-0 down......

Guest bimpy474 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If he's 100% fit he has to start. He's our best player and any manager who doesn't start him would be a fucking fruit loop if they looked at our attacking options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
