The College Dropout Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I love Hatem but throughout his career he's fallen out with a number of players and manager. He's clearly difficult to work with. No doubt from me either, the amazing thing is that these average managers can't see the massive up-side if they can get him happy and firing. That should overrule everything else. It's clear that although he's a bit of a weirdo, he's a genuine lad that just wants to express himself on the pitch. I think a lot of it is due to the team mates as well and their mentality (obviously cultivated by the manager). A team of cloggers, coached by a defensive manager will quickly turn on someone like Hatem if they think he's not putting in a shift. If the team is in a rut and Hatem's in bad form + apparently poor work ethic it's going to cause problems in the dressing room. Someone like HBA shouldn't play for NUFC let alone fucking Hull or Nice. The fact he's ended up at these clubs is because of his own issues, not his talent. Nobody else to blame. I hope he does well, plays at the Euros and ideally sorts his head out and gets a move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I don't think 'nobody else is to blame', the managers are making an error of judgement by not utilising him properly. Granted he has some responsibility as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Him 'getting a move' is probably not the best thing for him imo. It's all about happiness with him and that doesn't necessarily equate to being at a big club or playing at the very highest level, he's just a kid in the yard basically.

He'll never make it at the top level and that's a massive shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Maybe with a couple of seasons of solid football behind him it's possible, we've basically never seen that situation. He should definitely be careful where he moves though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Think he was at big clubs when he was way too young, and before he had really proved anything, which did him no favours. If he continues on this pace he will get a move and he will be awesome, because he would have proven himself and fully earned it. Brilliant player.

Like Robert Redford in The Natural. 37 year old Hatem playing in the Champions League final dribbling every cunt in sight one last time to score the winner.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Ben Arfa needs to be at a club where he can just be himself, hopefully he has found that club in Nice. Sadly, we are exactly his type of club. Fucking Pardew man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndegwa Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Can't believe, even now, that such a large section of our fans (perhaps the majority, as they're even well represented on here) actually wanted him to go. And they're actually satisfied with that decision. Fucking mental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
