Hatem Ben Arfa (still a free agent)

I usually struggle to remember individual performances from the opposition tbh.

 

 

Sir Les for QPR was outrageous like, would win the initial header then get onto his own flick-on. The only way we could stop him was to buy him.

 

Fucking Le Tissier over and over again, no idea why he hated us so much.

 

Schmeichel in 96. And Crossley of course, made about 20 saves, seemed like half with his fat face goddammit.

 

Gus Poyet as well. Loathsome prick. Remember the day we played them at home and SBR completely reshuffled the usual formation to move Hughes into midfield to watch Poyet, who obviously scored as we lost.

 

That semi-final.  What a cunt, we'd have won the cup that year I'm certain of it.

His goal in the semi-final after we p*ssed on them and Bobby Lee had equalized. Never felt so low as I did that day, we'd have destroyed Villa in the final that year. Sickener, hated that c***.

 

Edit to add:

It was probably about as standard a performance as you could get from him at the time, but Kompany was exceptional against us when they won 2-0 up here to finish our hopes of getting 4th.

Yep, he was incredible that day. Nothing got past him and he made it look so easy it was ridiculous. Was the best player I saw at St James' that season.

Pardew and Bruce unable to spot/utilize a players obvious talent and potential  :rolleyes: shocker.

 

Two of the three main candidates for the England job, by the way. The other (successful) one paid £7m for a knackered Alan Smith. They inject passion, mind.
