I suppose this will always happen with players of his sort. Nobody complains if he's scoring, but if he goes all season not passing the ball and not scoring, there'll be hell on.
 
What is his contribution to the team going to be if he isn't passing or scoring?

Well that's the thing, if he goes all season without doing either, he won't have made much of a contribution at all. But I think he's talented enough to know when to keep the ball and when to play it. He has his moments where maybe a pass was a better option, but at the minute I trust his judgement. The goals will come, I'm confident of that!
 
He's going to be ball greedy, and it's going to get on my tits no end. But im sure he'l refind his form and be annoying yet special.
 
He is just like Robert was, he will give the ball away a lot and hang on to the ball too long but will win matches on his own for us.
 
But nobody in this thread has expressed such thoughts, so your comment is misplaced here.

He's appologising for getting the wrong end of the stick, so your comment is mispaced here ;) <ok>

It's easy to do. Tones cannot be expressed effetively through text

<cheers>

He edited his post to add his wrong end of the stick thingy after I replied! Screw you! <laugh>
 
I cant believe how far down Ben Arfa has gone in peoples books now that people are asking if he's as good as bloody Laurent Robert...

Seriously?

He is a better player than Robert, if he has the same impact as Robert I'll be over the moon as Robert was brilliant for us.
 
I think the fact that everyone seems less that impressed with HBA's impact this season says a lot about how far we've come! We have lots of exciting players now, not just one!
 
Ben Arfa came on 2-1 down against Spurs and it finished 2-2 Ben Arfa came on at 0-0 Against Wigan and we won 1-0, we played alot more football in the opponents half, Tempo was quicker and created alot more when Ben Arfa came on, I think he has already contributed without assisting or scoring.

Agree with this <ok>

People can match his ability, which means he should slot in easier now as a player.

Everyone ups their game when he comes on, why that happens, I don't know, but he does seem to make players work harder.
 
He brings more out of us when he plays, particularly Cabaye and Jonas as he fills the gap where a number 10 plays and creates space for those two.
