Hatem Ben Arfa (now retired?)


Recommended Posts

 

Only player who stood up to pardew and spoke up when we were doing shit. Eventually saw him off as well, hero in my eyes

 

Don't be so stupid, man.  :lol:

 

Bore off pal

 

Not so long back Hatem had his tail between his legs defending Pardew and encouraging the fans to get behind him which obviously poured cold water on the Out campaign. Yet here you are pretending he's played a major part in Pardew's departure. You badly need to get in the real fucking world, man.

Really sad about this. Criminally underused.

 

I really hoped he would play a blinder for a forward thinking manager this next six months, get a years extension to his contract and we'd play entertaining, intelligent football using him, De Jong, Cabella and Perez - would have been so promising. This present NUFC, are the antithesis of the Keegan era - they really are destroyers of dreams.

 

One of the only reasons why I bothered tuning into games over the past four years of dross was to watch this magician at work, even if it was just for a five minute cameo. He suited us, and we suited him.

 

He provided us with that tiny smidgen of hope, in an era when it was lost for many.

 

The player with the greatest 'potential' and natural ability certainly, in my 20 years supporting the club.

 

Will miss him hugely.

Ironically, he was being professional.

Horrendous that we didn't see more of him in a Newcastle shirt.

 

As been said many times, if he was the full package then he would never have been at NUFC, but he's the kind of player you pay the ticket price to see play. I'll have fond memories. Many.

 

Just one massive shame. Gutting.
