HBA walks out on Hull.... (source: L'Equipe)

Apparently HBA has walked out on Hull and is currently trying to negotiate his release from us....
Isn't this the third time he's gone awol at a club?
**** him now... we need to replace him and his wages (£50,000) in our squad in January.
I'd use the savings to get another decent player in and maybe tie down Aarons to a new deal.

Want to replace him with Altidore? Won't take HBA in exchange as part of deal though.

 

He has got issues. For a while I think he had found his place in the north east. Of course he ended up self destructing like usual. He will probbs end up at a smaller French club now or maybe Italy. Somewhere you don't have to run around much anyway. Shame.

 

It is such a shame and such a waste of talent. He has a genuine ability to bring a crowd to it's feet with his own magical play but a complete inability to be part of a team and listen to others. Sad to say but I can't see his career ending up where it should have for someone with that much natural ability.

I also think he has an incredible ability to manipulate and play the fans by saying the right things and hoping that then blinds them to his actions toward the club.

 

Time to sell him to Liverpool for £30m

 

Just paper talk this and some of it seems to link back to an old story (a favourite of the much vaunted L'Equipe - don't care if this is true or not its a ****e publication riddled with made up ****e). We'll see. Be a shame if true as Bruce seemed happy to give him a clean slate. If its true then he looks bound for somewhere like Qatar. He needs paid a lot for doing little.

 

It would seem from reports that Bruce when asked where is HBA answers I have no idea, HBA is finished at Hull and in the UK to all appearences, just a question of how much he has to pay to get out of his contract at Newcastle.......................biggest waste of talent since Gazza first got pissed, HBA can't blame the drink though.

 

I blame Pardew

 

Personally, I think Gordon Lee and Richard Dinnis are to blame.

 

I agree

 

Nobody want to take up this offer then? No?

We'd rather have Shola back fella.... or Ranger..

 

In a 4-3-3, what a strike force!!!

 

We should make a compromise agreement for him to walk away. In retrospect Pardew has been accurate in his assessment of Ben Arfa.

 

Certainly seems that way. For all his talent, Benni certainly has issues. I'm sure there are hundreds of pro players who would love to have his ability. Such a shame, as when he was in form he looked world class. Just a pity you can condense it all into a 10 minute YouTube clip.

 

Newcastle manager Alan Pardew tells the Newcastle Chronicle Hatem Ben Arfa still has no future at Newcastle United - despite his loan deal being terminated at Hull City.

The Frenchman is back in Paris after the move to the KC Stadium did not work out.

Ben Arfa played eight times for the Tigers but did not impress.

When asked about his future, Pardew said: "He won't be coming back here, that's all I can say."

 

Disgraceful from Pardew. If you start writing off players like that then you are a **** manager. He surely deserves a 14th chance?

 

Yes but each time they offer HBA a 'second chance', he translates that into a 'second helping' and orders another Big Mac n fries.

 

Colo was spotted leaving a McDees so that is double standards (helpings). I think HBA is just misunderstood and has been wrongly treated. He is not a right winger for a start. He needs to played just in behind buffet cart with ready access to the pastry section. He should not be loaded with any defensive responsibility either. What sort of a manager demands that all his players work hard? He should be allowed the freedom to eat what he wants.
