In yet more trouble it would appear.... Hatem Ben Arfa could be heading for the Newcastle exit after reportedly returning from the summer break overweight. Ben Arfa was once described as Alan Pardewâs âmatch-winnerâ, but now the midfielder is unlikely to go on Newcastle Unitedâs pre-season trip to New Zealand. Alan Pardew was allegedly furious with the players condition and according to Le Parisien, the player is thought to have been fined in the region of £1,600 for carrying 1.5kg too much weight. please log in to view this image The French paper went on to claim that Ben Arfa had denied the extra weight, but obviously Alan Pardew thinks different. Newcastle have been active in the transfer window having signed Remy Cabella, Siem de Jong, Emmanuel Riviere and Dutch international full-back Daryl Janmaat. The club have refused to comment on the subject. Think a professional player on his wages should stick to a regime set by the club, to come back like that in my opinion just shows how unprofessional he is not having a pop at NUFC fans before they all come on here kicking off, just think the player is a disgrace
A Benny Hill thread would have been better like, as against some ****e from the **** tip, that none of us give a **** about.. Cue the mags, we are obssesed post, ffs...
Didnt a load of our lot return out of shape under mon? I agree footballers should be coming back in shape and raring to go, saying that its only a quarter of a stone, muscle weighs more than fat, if that were me it could of just been a hard on
