Chelsea to bid 18 Mil for him!

http://www.le10sport...paign=le10sport

From skysports:

Interesting line in The Times claiming Chelsea will make a move for Newcastle'sHatem Ben Arfa.

NUFCfans.co.uk@nufcfans

This Ben Arfa article in the Times is very wishy-washy - Chelsea to bid £18m, #NUFC will hold out for £26m. #CFC want to play like Barca.

Newcastle want 26 million, fuck sake hes decent enough but 26 million... JESUS FUCK.

£26m for Ben Arfa, £38m for Hulk. Like I said, today's market is overly inflated. There's nothing we can do about it, perhaps apart from buying second rate players instead.

Or do scouting properly and find players that are really good and cheap! Already did it with Marin so why not do it for a right winger?

Yes, or that alternatively. But that's eye of a needle stuff really.

Yeah depends really but Newcastle pulled of 3 good deals using scouting to their advantage, Cabaye, Ba and Cisse. Imagine if we could pull deals similar to that for fees as low as they were. In fact Ba was a free. Cabaye was 4.5 million or something and look at how good he has been and Cisse was 9 million and scored 13 goals in 15 games or something.

Ba played for west ham in the premier league and scored a couple so every one could see that he is worth it! That has nothing to do with good scouts and they could have him for free.

Ben Arfa is not the type of wide player we need. And IF we are to raid Newcastle, why aren't we going for Cabaye?!

While we are at it we should sign Ba as well, And Cisse, actually why not just hire Alan Pardew as our manager.

Belgiums have plenty of class/quality players. In fact their entire national team has quality, in just about every position.

Why arn't they playing in the EURO if they have so many quality players in just about every position?

Because they don't have a good CF, thus a lack of goals. They play good possession football with no end product. If Lukaku can become a top class Striker, the Belgian national team will become formiddable.

Fair enough.. I still dont rate them to highly.. They may be good but there are better places to poach players from.

Of course, I'm just saying if we ever need Talent, Belgium is a rich source of it. CB's, CM/DM's, AM's/Wingers and soon strikers, they've got you covered :)
