ilikenewcastle Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 If he was still here, he'd have stopped putting in any effort by Christmas and you know it! So like the rest of the team, aye? Pretty much. Basically, what I'm trying to say is, if he was still here, it would make literally no difference to our league position. You honestly don't think he could have won us a game in this wretched run we have? Probably not. If everyone else doesn't give a monkey's then I don't get why the master of not giving a monkey's would be any different. Especially if his time at Hull is anything to go by. Also find it bizarre that people would think players like Marveaux would have saved us... Even though players like Marveaux did last time? How did he save us last time? Well his clever assist in the 94th minute against Stoke won us two points, which is what we're currently short of safety. He also set up the only goal late on against QPR at home, there's two more. He set up more goals than anyone else that season. I said players like him of course, Ben Arfa's contribution was also massive relative to the rest. Ah, I knew someone would mention that Marveaux provided most assists for us that season. There were 5. That's not to be sniffed at, but it's less of a contribution than many current squad members have made this season. Most players will score or set up a couple of big goals a season...

We're two points short of safety. Ben Arfa had won us two extra points on his own by the time the first game of that season had finished. Another penalty that he won himself, which you don't seem to count. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, we'd be down if it wasn't for Colback's goal v Everton, Williamson's goal v Palace, Obertan's goal v Leicester or Ameobi's goal v Spurs. It's easy to cherry pick moments to make players look like saviours when we know in reality, they're rubbish/average or whatever. That's all people do with Ben Arfa. Remember the good goals, forget the laziness, the bad attitude, the fact he annoys the players and coaches at every club he's been to. You could apply this forum's logic to any player. 'Colback's dead average but he's got us a few goals out of nothing, why do people want Abeid to start?' That's not my opinion before someone starts screaming at me...

I mean fair enough, everyone is entitled to their own likes and dislikes. It's just so exciting every time he gets the ball, and he does things that nobody else can do. For me it doesn't matter if he turns up to the game with a bucket of KFC, as long as he can still accelerate off the spot and leave defenders looking stupid.

Give me the excitement and potential of Ben Arfa any day over the likes of Colback and Gouff. I don't remember him ever looking not bothered. I remember him looking frustrated at not being passed to, I remember him losing the ball trying to, you know, make things happen and that. I feel sorry for you if Ben Arfa didn't inspire a modicum of excitement in you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I don't think I've seen one of our players actually beat someone out wide since this guy left the club.
