#Raymar #Nasri #BenArfa - Спорт
Watched these guys a lot back in the height of my interest in the Premier League around 2011-2015 and it was always a surprised to me how quickly they kind of fell off the spotlight... so here you go! Please leave a like if you enjoyed for the algorithm and support 🙏
Raymar is the goat
Raymar is seriously the goat
Back when Arsenal had Santi Cazorla… good times.
Could you do a Hugo sanchez? 🇲🇽
Do a video of 7 teams from outside a major capital to win the Copa Libortories. HITC Sevens keeps ignoring this video suggestion 😂
No matter how talented you are at something, discipline and hardwork is still crucial for success. I remember back when people talked about the generations '87, they would go Ben Arfa, Nasri, Diaby, Benzema then Menez as the most talented. Nowadays I think everyone will start with Benzema. He lasted 10 years at Madrid, fought for his spot numerous times vs Higuain, Adebayor, Jovic, Morata, Chicharito and many others. Meanwhile Ben Arfa the most talented has never been in the same team for 4 years due to his bad attitude in dressing room, couldn't stay fit, overall relying too much on his talent with very little effort in training.
@Abdulaziz Mohammed I totally agree. But was it really a comeback? Benzema has always been that player. Although when the team needs goals he becomes the goalscorer and when it needs a team 9. He will turn into that false 9. Back when they had Ronaldo, Benz left the goals for him and played a more supplying role. And when he left he switched to a more typical number 9.
I think most people finally realized how good benzema is after Cr7 left.
@@elmaromero8585 It's sad that they slept on him back when Ronaldo was there. Karim has always been legit
@@cm2k-351 yeah i agree benzema never really made a comeback its more that he was now in the limelight vacated by ronaldo
@@Internazionale2010 He just shifts and changes depending on his teammate. If you can't finish like Vinicius. He will be a more selfish typical striker and bang in the goals. But If RM sign Lewandowski, according these recent rumors. He will be that supplying striker again.
both nasri and arfa had short primes but they were very underrated players
Nasri at Sevilla was class
Ummm nah bro. We all know they’re talent but they just couldn’t I guess “discipline” themselves to be tactically sound players
Nasri actually had a great career with Arsenal and Manchester city.. the real disappointment was Ben Arfa..
It's so annoying to think that players like Ben Arfa, Pato, and Quaresma could not reach the heights they were expected to. What a waste of talent!
@@csokopsglazersout7447 Quaresma was lazy
Pato was good but injuries ruined him
@@csokopsglazersout7447 Add Adriano to that list.
@@pkingglazersout6665 his depression destroyed him
@@pkingglazersout6665 Robinho too
Kaka, R9, R10 had a good career but fell off their pick early
As a United fan, I always hated when United had to play against Nasri. Whether it was for Arsenal or Man City, the guy always performed. Shame that they didn't have the work ethic, because those two genuinely had the talent to be among the best players in the world
This fallouts just makes me appreciate CR7 and Messi…true goats who are consistent and continue working hard. I’m just happy Benzema had a fantastic career and continues scoring goals
Arfa was meant to be the greatest
"you can see how he began to score poorer and poorer"
*2015-2016 - 13 goals in 13 appearances*
True lol
That’s why I came into the comments to see if anyone else noticed
It was a mistake he didn’t have 13 goals
I personally miss nasri at city. Both him and Arfa were really great players.
That profile picture is going to age like milk
Haaland take that shit off
what about Maguire?
@@purnalingamr6803 🖕 Stop this joke
I love hatem ben arfa
That Lyon team with Juninho, Essien, Diarra, Malouda, Abidal and a young Ben Arfa and Benzema. My favourite team to watch in the Champions League back then.
I’ll always remember Lyon vs ac Milan in the champions league
As someone who didn’t start paying attention to football until 2017 I love these videos about the players before then
Same as a guy who didn't till the 2014 world cup
@@jamesjohn4938 same World Cup 14 was legendary
The videos are great but they’re unbearable to binge because of the annoying music lol…
@@Gio21K yh it really was, I'm happy that was the tournament where I met football and gave me my first impressions on it, I got to experience so many iconic moments as a first time watcher like the Germany Brazil game, Robben, RVP & the rest of Netherlands taking revenge on Spain and going onto have an excellent tournament, the Suarez biting incident, Messi's Argentina going to a world cup final and coming so close, Neymar carrying Brazil, James Rodriguez, really was such a great experience
@@JayJay5244 think you're on your own island on that one mate, I always see most people praising him for including this music, myself included, it really adds a nice vibe to it.....but hey if that's how you prefer it that's how you prefer it, no harm there
We need a Samir Nasri vs Don Robbie boxing match 😂
Their names gave me some weird nostalgia...
These two and Benzema would always kill it on old FM games.
04:24. I forgot Nasri was with City
I like how you dig down on players who were once great but "forgotten" it shows greatness isn't easily forgotten no matter how bad one's life might be. Thank you for the video and I'm a fan of your work.
If only Nasri won a league with arsenal
I remember when a young Benzema and a young Ben Arfa played for Lyon. Man, they were unstoppable and such a pleasure to watch. I can't believe it's been almost 20 years since then!
Absolutely loved Nasri, was gutted when he left for city but I completely understood why. The guy was an absolute baller.
Turkish Fenerbahce fan here, Ben Arfa has been linked with us for the last 3 years and it’s become a joke between the fan base. I remember Nasri came to turkey a few years ago but I don’t know what he’s been up to since
hows Ozil doing at Fener? I heard he was doing good in the Superlig?
@@Abdirahman_Mohamed last year he missed a very important goal that could’ve made us the champions, but I’ve got hopes from him for this year.
@@Abdirahman_Mohamed he was very shit
Reminds me of Football Manager '08. My favourite edition of the game. Benzema, Ben Arfa and Nasri were absolute must buys.
I remember watching a documentary by L'Equipe from 2002 about France's new talents after the WC win. Ben Arfa was touted as the star and the one who would be the best in the world. It's really sad to see what he became. I think he's only footballer certifiable as the "French Messi".
I remember the golden era at Lyon, where you could see Benzema, Ben Arfa, Lloris and Juninho playing together. Ben Arfa had a big impact on the game's flow, but he was also kind of selfish with the ball and often pushing his dribbling too deep.
Benzema matured quickly, Ben Arfa did not.
@@Steak818 nasri epic solo UCL goal
The streets will never forget Hatem Ben Arfa
The streets won't forget 💪
hey raymar, love your content, keep
up the good work!
Raymar, this episode was Soo good! Definitely can see the quality and the hard work paying off. Your skills with editing are getting so clutch too!
Nice video. Feels like this channel is for mid 30s who used to watch football in their teens and 20s. LOL.
Think he might be younger like 25 at most, but I agree his channel definitely caters to every era of football fans!
@@Adrian-tj4pn he just became graduate this year he is around 22
Ben Arfa on fifa 12 was a straight up cheat
Littery watched about 6 of your vids then just saw this one. Keep up the good work bro
8:44 how is 13 goals and 2 assists in 13 appearances bad
I dunno 😭😭
its meant to be 2 goals 3 assists i think
@@massimom9668 for a center mid that not bad
Bruh
Amazing Video Bro🔥🔥
Nasri was nasty on fifa
@Rock goooood times
I love Hatem Ben Arfa and to this day his goal against Bolton is the best goal I've ever seen! Only but love for the guy that brought me so much joy in a time that was littered with such negativity in the years he was at Newcastle. Thank you for all the memories Ben Arfa, keep on playing with the magic that made you so memorable at Newcastle!
Love these videos
Always look forward to your vids. Keep up the great work 👍🏾
So Nasri got out of the spotlight when he joined Sevilla and got back in it when he joined West Ham...kinda feels like the classic EPL bias problem, no? His season for Sevilla was more than decent...England is not the pinnacle of the world
Yes it is, every other league is a 2 horse race every year at best
@@muckymoe5619 Give me a break dude, EPL was won with an advantage of 8 points over the 2nd while La Liga was an until the last day championship this year (not the only time in recent times, AT ALL). I know that one season doesn't change everything, but you could watch that happen for 30 years straight, you would say the same about EPL in comparison to the rest of the competitions. And even then, there's more to it than just that, we're talking about the undisputed ruler of EPL (I know English teams don't care about it much because they prefer community shield ofc) it's such a willfull blindness that it's overwhelming.
You're right Alberto. Even though probably in this case, for a player whose popularity was linked to his time in the prem, at Arsenal and City, spending time at West Ham revived his popularity. In Spain I'm not sure how many people knew Nasri
@@massx999 Everyone knew Nasri. Opposite to England, which ignores basically any other league except when UCL is being played, in Spain and generally other countries that aren't England, those who enjoy football do know players from other leagues, the teams etc... and even enjoy those leagues too, instead of comparing themselves to everyone else repeatedly.
I agree, Nasri had one of his best season with Sevilla under Sampaoli. Deschamps was tempted to call him back even though they don't get along.
Great video! Would love to see more like this
Love your vids bro
Keep up this good work
Raymar ain't gonna become inconsistent. 🥰 Thanks for making this video!
You should do video about Deportivo and it rise and fall. Or maybe video about some of their players.
Diego Tristan.....fab
When Wenger and Nasri parted ways his career went off track especially with France. You left Arsenal fine but the final nail in the coffen was when we did stuff that made Wengee his main supporter lost faith in him. After winning 2 EPL he was finish before Pep had even arrived at City still his career was hanging by a threat at City until City sold him. I believe he let his anger got the better of him and not taking Wenger words of encouragement seriously. Pepe for Portugal was able to control his for brief period especially with Ronaldo around but Nasri simply could not. I do not know much about his childhood but I believe he might have had parental issues. Maybe his parents were abusive or they fought a lot in front of him that help the reck his mind.
Now, i dunno all the french players, especially attackers are very aggressive except a few
Be it zidane, and these 2, or mbappe
@@france8607 Zidane was also a pretty agressive player when he was young. Zidane, Nasri, Ben Arfa, all of them from Algerian descent, and as such not growing up in the most weathly of families, I suppose. Conscious and subconscious social formating have a deep impact on the behaviour of a developing young man...
I've been waiting for this video to drop
Man, do you know Dener? You should do a video about him. An amazing young brazilian player with tremendous potencial that has died in a tragic car accident. He would've been as famous as R9 or R10, if he hadn't died so young.
I know that guy. He could have been the next Maradona. Just see his solo goals and you'll see why.
the streets will never forget Ben Arfa what a player
Bru these vids are so fire
Newcastle fans absolutely adored Ben Arfa! Yes he could be frustrating but the only thing Geordies love more than a goal scorer is an entertainer... He was appreciate on the toon
Ben Arfa or Saint Maximin?
Love them both but if I had to choose, Ben Arfa
@@Chez114 I started watching Premier League in 2014 but I can't remember Ben Arfa maybe I was too young. Now tho, ASM is my favorite player outside the top 6
@@fishyfish6510 I'll tell you the truth... Ben Arfa was every bit as frustrating with his decision making as Saint-Maximim but if you watch the highlights, it will only show you the magic. Today I view Ben Arfa through rose tinted glasses because on his day, he had a better end product than Saint-Maximim and was every bit the crowd pleaser. Where I do feel that Saint-Maximim is better is the sheer amount of times he beats a player on his runs, Ben Arfa knew when to release the ball. Saint-Maximim is quicker than Ben Arfa was. For some reason, our favourite mercurial talents are always french. Ginola, Robert, Ben Arfa, Saint-Maximim. Pity about Thauvin though
when Nasri signed for Arsenal that was when i was really getting into club football as a chelsea fan watching matches every weekend in high school then talking to my friends about it.
It's funny to see that when they were young the true diamond of their generation was Ben Arfa and was considered to have a potential similar to Messi because his technical skills were god tier like him.
A shame to see what he has done with his career.
He had the ability but lacked even 10% his attitude
As a newcastle fan, there was nothing more of a treat than seeing Ben arfa play when he was motivated his goal against Bolton was incredible he genuinely could have become world class and a ballon dor contender such a shame he wasn't always motivated
Raymar u are op man
I am a football fan and got alot of information from players
Keep growing brother
Love from India 🇮🇳
I hope sometime soon India will be good in football
@@kumarakash109 Odisha
You deserve atleast 10 million subs!❤
Ben Arfa was amazing at newcastle... so underrated
Best Football UA-cam Channel :)
i miss nasri man

You should do a USA vs Mexico rivalry. How it started and how it evolved over the years.
No
Narcos
I really like these videos because I am new to football and like to learn about these type of players
Your narrating voice is amazing and relaxing.
The streets will never forget Ben arfa beast!
Loving your videos. Please do a video for Cesc Fabregas
Bro what a video, please do matt le tissier next🙌
Ben Arfa was my hero when I started following football, he was severely miss managed by Alan Pardew at Newcastle
Nice vid
Make a video about Italy’s 2020/2021 star players that helped win the Euros 2020 roberto Mancini and how they are unbeaten in 34 matches which has lasted since 2018 this would be a mega video
You should make a video on what happened to Falcao
i’m sure you have a ton of video requests but I would love to see a vid on Giuseppe Meazza
Ben afra was crazy
the streets will always remember ben arfa
How many star players you had actually?
France : *"Yes"*
And how many of them are actually real French?
@@ackermann3979 they're all real French, born and raised and trained in France. Benzema and Ben Arfa actually went to class with a friend of mine.
@@matthiasdarrington3271 he means their ethnicity
@@loco0106 what is French ethnicity ? We are a historical mix of Celts, Romans, Franks, Berbers, Italians, Spaniards, Arabs, Caribbeans and Africans. French ethnicity is a myth created by xenophobes.
@@matthiasdarrington3271 yeah he meant where did the parents from nasri and Ben arfa came from
Attitude is everything
I really like your videos and have subscribed, I would really love to see a video “how good was Thiery Henry”
What is the music in the background? Always great content
There is another one - Jeremy Menez
The four horsemen
nice video
I remember Nasri in 2011 being absolutely class
Do a video on how good was Hristo Stoichkov Please
Stoichkov > Berbatov

My interest in football- *Don't watch this*
But voice of reymar - *Watch this*
Ben Arfa is not know at all for his athleticism he is know for his technique particularly his dribbling ability which is phenomenal
Just when I was wondering about Nasri whereabout!
Quality over quantity another great vid

Where you been bro? Miss your vids
raymar plz post more
I remember this guy from old pes and fifa back in the days lmao
Would love to see an analysis on Yoann Gourcuff
We need a what happened to Oscar in chelsea. He used to be an amazing attacking midfielder
nothing happened to Oscar, he was talented and was performing quite well until he chose to follow money instead of progressing forward in his football career when he moved to the Chinese league. Disappointing really.
Has anyone told you that you sound like the football version of filmneto
10 years later :
What happend to cheisa
Your videos >>>>
Hey @RaymarFootball , It would be cool if you featured a video about Roberto Baggio ?
So sad to see that happen to them
Ben Arfa and Adel Taarabat are one of my favourite ballers ever.
I’m a newcastle fan and I wish ben arfa worked hard, he had so much potential to become a player the world would remember :(
You really need to do a video about the "Azzurri" undefeated run for Euro 2021 , just Do IT!! from nothing to everything is a story who deserve coverage!
Hey Raymar ! I just wanted you to make a video about *Gabriel Batistuta* , I never knew about him until *PES* featured his ICONIC player card and intrigued by his rating (I'm not saying that he's bad, I just wanna know just how good he was to get that rating)
Do the el salvador Legend Magico Gonzalez :Day 2
Those two unknown guys look just like Nasri and Ben Arfa. Nasri played for Arsenal and Manchester City - two of the best teams in the premier league and was a great player for both of them. Ben Arfa was very talented - got a bad injury at Newcastle but very talented player. Now I’ll continue to watch the video to find out who those 2 unknown guys are at the start of the video
Football is a heavenly game.
Make a video on the underrated career of frank ribery
Can’t wait for benzema vid
I really hope Karim ends up winning the World Cup next year. He really deserves it after everything he’s done in his career.
These guys were so sweaty in Fifa 12 lmao
I remember Nasri was so hard to tackle and at the same time, he was so aggressive
Was ironically thinking about Ben Arfa recently too…
