Toon Star A Relieved Man

Hatem Ben Arfa was a relieved man after finally ending his exile at Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night. The 24-year-old Frenchman made his first competitive appearance for the club since suffering a double leg fracture at Manchester City in October. Ben Arfa: "All the year I worked so hard to come back and I'm very happy to be on the pitch now. "It was very hard for me and I'm very happy to be back. I hope we do very good things this season. "I'm very happy to see the supporters again and I thank them for all the encouragement last year. "It was hard for me, but they sent me messages and I want to thank them. "I feel very good. I have confidence and I feel I will do very good things now. I'm ready to play now. I hope we continue like this."
