Hatem Ben Arfa (now retired?)


Recommended Posts

Best image I found of Ben Arfa laughing when Enrique got his chance as a goalkeeper. Good times  :D

And then we didn't test him at all.

Me and Ste were there when he scored that goal against Bolton. All game he had been making runs and instead of passing to players in a better position he just ran into trouble with it. I was there shouting for him to pass, until he made the last little chip to set himself up to finish it.

The trouble with him that as much as I loved him, towards the end of his career here he was always running into trouble instead of passing.

 

He leaves with fond memories for me and I wish him all the best, I think we saw the best anyone will see out of him, but by no means was that his full potential, shame honestly.

16 degrees there this Saturday, evening game v Lorient. And 18 on the Sunday as well. £120 return from Gatwick, tempting.

 

Do you never just get tired of posting stuff you definitely won't do? :lol:

 

I know, I knew someone (you) would pick up on this. TBF it's only the last couple of things I've decided against! I'll show you one day Ronaldo :angry:

Remember how I told you to shut the fuck up from the very start of the run? Everyone around us seemed to be groaning at him and telling him to pass, but I knew something special was going to happen. Seemed to have loads of momentum and adrenaline behind him from the moment he picked the ball up.

 

Shame how it turned out but he's not blameless.

Remember how I told you to shut the f*** up from the very start of the run? Everyone around us seemed to be groaning at him and telling him to pass, but I knew something special was going to happen.

I'm french so his return seems to be a good news for me ( 31 Jan Metz vs Nice, I'll be there  :frantic: )

 

So why am I still sad that he leaves the Toons... ?

 

For many reasons but especially because I thought that at times he was like " the prince of St-James Park " but this times is over now  :'(

Something about Hatem makes people talk utter rubbish, like. On both sides of the argument.

 

Ronaldo, there - the voice of reason.
