  Newcastle boss Chris Hughton fears Hatem Ben Arfa suffered a broken leg during his side's 2-1 defeat at Manchester City.

  Ben Arfa, on loan from Marseille, had to be given oxygen on the field after a tackle from Nigel de Jong and was subsequently taken straight to hospital.

  "It seems as if he's got a broken leg," Hughton told ESPN. "The news is not good. When something like that happens and then to have some incredible decisions go against us, it's hard to take."

  He added: "He has gone to hospital and we will make an announcement in due course but it looks like he has broken his leg. Everyone will have their own opinion but it was a tackle that did not need to be made."

  Did moneybags city bribe the referee? De Jong should be banned from football.
