Hatem Ben Arfa (now retired?)


Recommended Posts

Pretty shitty taking it to Berwick and storing it there. Wasn't it bought with the NUFC community in mind? Should at least be local.

 

As badly organised as the club, man. :lol:

 

I was trying to not get angry as maybe its only place he had space and did not expect it to be used till next season.

But yeah I am gutted...been trying since yesterday to sort this.

Slim: thanks for the numbers... I've left voicemails on both and will now proceed to text them... I'm based in Gateshead but will to take a long lunch and collect them if we could get them a little closer or if someone is available to open up midnight tonight I could go up after I've finished playing footy at 10pm tonight so would land around 12 once changed etc...

First of all I would like to say that I really have enjoyed watching ben arfa playing for us. Some of his goals/assists for us have been awesome and amongst few highlights in recent years.

 

He came to the club under the wrong manager...although I think they had a good relationship in the first couple of seasons (first he hardly played). I also think pardew was right in trying to develop the more defensive side of his game but somewhere it went wrong. Pardews tactics and way of using/not using ben arfa was a catastrophe - but Im  still a bit confused?

 

How is Ben arfas personality/professionalism? Had his injuries but have seemed rather overweight at some points?

 

Is he respected by his teammates and does he respect them?

 

Know he have had his problems earlier in his career - so if someone (objective) could give his opinion i would appreciate it?

 

My personal conclusion is: Pardew is a limited manager who did not succeed in integrating the most gifted player we had here for years (maybe ever had). Also that Ben arfa professionalism could have been better - especially his fitness!
