It's the gift that keeps on giving that one. Worth a few bob if you dangle out the rod from time to time.
It's easy for a player to blame the manager for his lack of form. I'm still with Bruce. The players are letting the club down.
1st of all did you really just get that upset at a guy on a football forum to where you felt the need to call him *nobcheese* for having an opinion? It was fairly obvious i'm not comparing ben arfa to Maguire haha, the point was ben arfa would be better on the field than in France against teams like this!! P.S it's knobcheese
What a surprize ! You are getting on somebody's nerves ! It's not only me who thinks your one argumentative C**T ! You know absolutely **** all about football by the way.
Soz, you seem a bit touchy. Nobcheese. You really seem a little hard of thinking. Explain to me again how us having Ben Arfa on the pitch, doing **** all, would benefit us again? You've clearly never watched us play, especially when he's been given a chance. He does nothing. This isn't like FIFA or FM. You can't just pick players and they do the business for you all the time. Ben Arfa clearly thought he was too good for us, and Newcastle, and in fact every club he's played for. He puts zero effort in. It's like having 10 men on the pitch. Nobber.
We were playing with 5men yesterday haha what's the difference? At least ben arfa has some quality and may actually do something in the final third (when played in correct position)
Kinell. Noone is suggesting he doesnt have the ability or isn't a quality footballer. The fact is however, he does not choose to use it on the football field. For anyone. You'd select him, and pay him a fortune week after week on the off chance this is the game he puts in 2 mins worth of effort and scores a goal? Ben Arfa strolled onto the pitch, and strolled around, did nowt, then came off. We were his big chance to put himself back in the window after a dire time and getting a bad name at Newcastle. Even that wasn't enough for him. He thinks hes a CL player, and that AC or Real Madrid will come in for him. This is real football and real life, not something on your X Box.
I would never of brought him to the club for the reasons you just stated, however every ****er knew that about him before he came here!!! Bruce knew what he was getting and while on the books I would take a risk in playing him yes (only if its out wide ffs). He tracks back more than you lot make out, he got scapegoated for being a lazy **** in one game. He's not going to run around like a headless chicken all game but he does stick to his defensive duties most the time!!
How am I the argumentative one when he argued with me? And I know lots about football - I can name players, teams, kit colours and everything. So you're wrong.
On his way out? https://www.clubcall.com/hull-city/mcshane-unlikely-to-feature-again-1752053.html? Edit: Maybe somebody already posted this ^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'm disappointed with McShane for tweeting that. He may have chosen his words carefully but nonetheless it was a bit naughty.
"McShane is the only member of the squad that remains from the promotion campaign in 2008-09 and he has featured in 100 league games." In which we were promoted from the Premier to the... Premier.
The fact that macca has to apologise to the squad makes this more than just a spat put dummy through not playing. My guess is macca has been on the pop on a school night and missed training (hence the need to apologise to the squad), if that is the case then he rightly deserves to be punished.
