    the greatest minds on earth are working on ways of finding a renewable supply but first they will have to try to reduce the amount of **** that tash comes out with so existing supplies dont run out

    Well Tash has been recycling (or 'Editing') his bigger threads of late. An effort is being made.

    No way can anyone answer this question.

    I've voted don't know, and that's after watching both players extensively whilst they were still in France.

    They are both direct, wonderful close control, and can both shoot.

    They both make things happen, and frankly, if they were both in one team the opposition would get murdered.

    Whoever quoted 'Ben Arfa's International caps' may have taken the effort to note that Sessegnon is not French, but Beninese, and has 37 caps for his country, scoring 7 goals.

    We are both lucky to have players of this calibre in our teams given our relative failures, these 2 lads would be a shoe in to ANY team outside the top 4, and would gt game time at any club in the league.

    Good post.

    See, someone has been able to make the most constructive post in this entire thread and he doesn't even know which one to choose. It's possible people.

    I will add that a Sunderland v Newcastle poll is fundamentally flawed as you have more users, but this is a good debate, these are our 2 clubs respective crown jewels (Sess is going to be bigger than Gyan for us on the pitch, if not on it), there's always gonna be a bit of bias, facts are there is little to nothing between them.

    My initial response was completely honest and reasonable you bastard. I'm so hurt.

    I actually wanted to make the thread so the usernames were visible. That way, we could see which mackems voted for Ben Arfa, which mags voted for Sess and so on. I forgot though. The numbers on their own unfortunately don't provide much in the way of interesting statistics.

    They're both constructive, but Bruceys Beak's post has more words in it, therefore he wins by default.

    An open vote would have probably polarised it even more.

    You know it's gonna be that way mate, i'd say the difference between the 2 is about the same as the level of users respectively, so the poll is basically everyone voting for their own.

    Facts are you guys never got to see Sessegnon at the end of the season once he started performing, as sky weren't covering our games as they were meaningless.

    He's carried on through pre-season, scoring in almost every game, and general causing havoc with accurate long range shots from all angles.

    He's gonna make a real impact, he's like a new signing in a lot of ways.

    I wish HBA all the best getting fit, but won't deny i'm pleased he's not available for the 20th!

    It's quality over quantity Chappaz. Brucey's Beak gives you ten rusty Vauxhall Novas whereas I gave you a single shining E-Type Jag of a post.

    Get your priorities right lad.

    Well in the games i've saw Ben Arfa play he has looked unreal at dribbling and i've never saw Sessegnon play, did he play against us at SoS? When he's back fit we can soon see though. :)
