Would be nice to see Ben Afra on one wing and the already explosive Arsenal player Carlos Vela on the other next season. Rosicky you were missed but we have to move on and increase our depth.
L’OM dreaming of Ben Arfa
by Laurent Picard, 08 April 2008
Marseille chairman Pape Diouf has revealed that Lyon starlet Hatem Ben Arfa would be warmly welcomed at Stade Velodrome.

Marseille are definitely OL’s bogey team, as they beat the reigning champions home and away this season in Ligue 1, and both spectacular games have been shown live on Setanta Sports.

Diouf has been impressed by France international Ben Arfa, who slalomed his way through OL's defence last Sunday without hitting the back of the net.
The flying winger has become a super sub for Alain Perrin, and Diouf does not understand how such a promising player does not start.
“He is extraordinary,” Diouf told L’Equipe. “If tomorrow I had the means to make him come to Marseille, I wouldn’t hesitate a second.
“Even if it’s for a single wonderful play per game, I take him right now.
“When I think that there is a coach in Lyon that puts him on the bench!”
Ben Arfa has been linked to Manchester United and Arsene Wenger recently declared himself a fan of his fellow countryman.
L’OM are negotiating contract extensions with both full backs Taye Taiwo and summer signing Laurent Bonnart, who imposed himself as a replacement for Newcastle’s Habib Beye.
Al-Dhafra centre back El-Amine Erbat is being linked to Le Velodrome as well. The Morocco international was scouted by a number of teams during the recent African Cup of Nations.
