dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Frustrating match to watch, but then all the matches since Man U have been. Don't understand why we insisted on hoofing the ball long to Cisse and Demba all game when they couldn't win a header against the Wolves cbs. We were lucky to go two ahead and then completely stopped playing. On Ben Arfa, I think he was the only player to try to make something happen in the second half. He lost the ball a few times but he also almost scored, and was the only player shooting at the goal after they equalised. Time to see him starting regularly, the lad needs games to get to his best and we need an in form Ben Arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Problem with Ben Arfa at the moment is, when he comes on, he knows it's a rare chance to show everyone - Pardew in particular - what he can do. That leads to a huge level of selfishnes, what we've seen yesterday. Of course, he almost scored but, with Ba in the box, I'd rather had him try to cross the ball into the box instead of trying to cut inside and go for goal - everytime.

Guest BooBoo Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Ben Arfa was his usual self. Unwilling to release the ball and head down. Clearly a talented player but he's a frustrating a player as you'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Still fucking furious here like, can't believe we threw that away. Actually thumped the mattress and shouted "fuck" when I woke up this morning. The lass was not impressed. I had this exact reaction when I woke up.

Doug Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Didnt have many players to release it too This, also releasing it to Simpson is just giving away possession anycase. Releasing it to Simpson or Williamson on the right side of our defence you mean. If our formation was likened to the human body, then it has had a stroke affecting its right side. Add Raylor and it becomes total paralysis rather than just slurring and slobbering. HBA and Ferguson are the bionic body parts ready for the cure. Get them fitted Pardew you twerp.

Simpson is so bad that when he berates his team-mates, for doing badly something he should have done in the first place, I feel like chinning him from my position in the Leazes End. He's wank.

Dr Venkman Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 He really can do no wrong in some people's eyes. Perhaps, imo though just like the constant Hughton/Pardew debate that comes up, that's not the important point. The important point is should he have been given more of a chance this season? Obviously he should have, Pardew's massively at fault for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, better than having to pretend that we're happy for a scrawny little 9 year old who's just rolled a football into the Gallowgate net past an underworked and over aged paedophile in a Magpie suit.
