Ben Arfa has started just nine games all season, and four of those were in the cup competitions, with Pardew struggling to get him into the system he wants to play.
Hatem Ben Arfa: "I see my ambitions the same now as at the start - to become one of the best.
"Of course, I have lost a bit of time in my career, but, in my life, I have the impression I have gained some.
"Really, it is a shame that a career cannot be made between 24 and 40 years old because then I would have more chance.
"But let's see in three or four years.
"Then, I see myself at the top, winning, for example, the World Cup in Brazil or the Ballon d'Or, because I still have lots of dreams."
