Mick Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I understand what you're saying, but as many have said post-our game, they can't be any more defensively suspect than Cabaye and Simpson. The amount of space BAE had for that first goal was criminal/hilarious (delete where applicable). Cabaye left loads of space, he was sitting in his house at the time so I wouldn't be too hard on him for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I wonder if they'll take a chance on Lee Clark..... Didn't they say the post was not for a 'novice'? Not to be unfair to Clark, but in managerial terms he still is pretty green. Even with their first shortlist seemingly unavailable, doubt they'd renege on such a bold statement, so soon - more out of pride than anything else! Ah yeah, so they did. True, Clark still isn't quite there yet. Not sure who Wolves will bring in now really, especially now that their first choices have seemingly turned them down. Your suggestion of Sven might be a good shout actually, hmmm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VaVaVoom Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 We need a massive reaction against Wolves like. AP needs to get the team and tactics right. I'd like to see... ---Krul--- Santon---Williamson---Coloccini---Jonas Raylor---Cabaye---Tiote---Ben Arfa Cisse---Ba Some may ridicule but i actually think Jonas at LB for the rest of the season would give Ben Arfa the support he needs to play out wide. It wont happen though. AP will go with... ---Krul--- Simpson---Williamson---Coloccini---Santon Raylor/Obertan---Cabaye---Tiote---Jonas Cisse---Ba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Some may ridicule but i actually think Jonas at LB for the rest of the season would give Ben Arfa the support he needs to play out wide. http://media.steampowered.com/steamcommunity/public/images/avatars/ff/fff42edcbf301998b19edb45b38e024be37bf7b6_full.jpg Pardew just needs to sack up and give Ben Arfa a shot on the wing in a 4-4-2 for this. I know we'll probably concede 15 goals due to his horrific inability to defend (despite the fact that we managed to keep a clean sheet away at Everton last year and in the second half at home to Blackburn in the cup, the only two times I recall HBA playing as part of a midfield 4) but he deserves a chance IMO.

Guest VaVaVoom Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I agree Shak...I think we all do. AP NEEDS to grow a set and just put some trust in him. Having Tiote and Cabaye back does boost the chances of Barfa starting like...AP has said in the past that when we have key players like them in the side it makes us stronger and more accomodating to having a player like Barfa in the starting line up. Which is true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good enough for me. It's worth a shot. He's clearly got the attributes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 He was a liability at right back for Argentina in the WC as far as I recall. They were a mess in general though. Physically he has the attributes to play there but I don't think it'd suit him at all tbh. Now probably isn't the time to try it out in any case.
