Nattfare Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Lazy bastard with a shit attitude and who always picks fights with his managers. It's his own fault that Pardew scrapegoated him, so good riddance to him! I'd take him back in a heartbeat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Who is their manager? They always look incredibly entertaining to watch. They prepare their team around him and are reaping the rewards. They play very wide, really stretch the game to give him plenty space to operate in and basically allow him to go where he wants. They've played two of the better sides in Ligue 1 this week and completely wiped the floor with them (6-1 and 4-1). Seen a few cretins elsewhere saying that he's just playing in a crap league. Begs the question why do we keep paying £10m+ for worse players from that league to try and replace him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I wonder if he'd ever come back, assuming the issues he had were solely with Pardew... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Just watched the highlights all the way through, he's close to a hat-trick bar a pretty good save towards the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Such a bad decision to let him go. I'll never get my head round it to be honest - such a shame that we aren't able to watch this guy play for us when we could have had him for his prime years.

Beren Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Would love to see him do his stuff in the Champions League one day. He'll never be what he could (should?) have been due to injuries/coming to NUFC/going to Hull... but would nonetheless love to see him at least briefly light up the CL.

Hughesy Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Hope he forces his way into the French squad for next summer and lights up Euro 2016. Would be absolutely brilliant to see him do that - obviously biased, but in a 23 man squad for a tournament there should always be a wildcard attacker like him I reckon, even if he is just there to bring off the bench.

Beren Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 He's going to be hard to ignore if he keeps going like this. Looks very fit and happy so it's more than possible. Doesn't he have bad blood with Benzema, Nasri and the rest of the never-delivered-on-the-international-stage cronies? Would be fun to see him in an international tournament but he seems happier without them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Fekir crocked that could well be his opening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I don't know why but I know it'd annoy me To see him come on with 8 minutes left, with France invariably desperate for some 'magic' and chasing the game, receive maybe 2 passes in his own half, and when he finally did get the ball, he'd try to force it/try to impress rather than playing his natural game - then you'd get the pundit with a comment about how managerial maestros Pardew and Cardew have been validated in their treatment of Ben Arfa - "always losing possession and not putting a shift in", then you kick clean through the TV.
