Is Samir Nasri already a City player?
A question I’ve been asking myself since the Frenchman decided to stall on a new deal at the Emirates. Obviously he is still a Gunner, but his attitude and body language suggests otherwise.
Reports suggest that City’s pursuit of the 24-year-old midfielder, who netted 15 goals for Arsenal last season, will finally come to an end by the end of the week.
French publication L’Equipe reported yesterday that Nasri had already agreed personal terms of £185,000-a-week (9.6 million a year) ahead of a potential move to the Eastland’s later this month.
Arsene Wenger is reluctant to sell one of his prized assets to a rival club, but the midfielder’s contribution in pre-season suggests that his commitment and future at the Emirates is coming to an end. Many (including myself) believe that Wenger’s £20 million gamble to let the Frenchman see out the last year of his contract and leave on a free next summer is absolutely ludicrous.
Sources in France claim that Nasri’s deal to the Etihad outfit has been in place for sometime – wouldn’t be surprised if it was.
Not sure about all you other Gooners out there, but to me, Nasri looks like he is on his way out this summer – his body language during pre-season indicated to me that he no longer wants to play for us.
He has put his future in major doubt ever since deciding to stall on a new deal at Arsenal, and to put us (the club) between a rock and a hard place is just not on.
I would sell him for around £22-25 million to any club interested and sign a replacement – no point in losing him on a free next summer.
If recent reports are accurate then Nasri is already a City a player – I just feel sorry for those who printed his name on the back of their new Arsenal shirt.

if nasri want to go let him go and replace him with someone who is better than him.where is heleb, adebayo, flamini let him also go, nasri has not done half of what henri did for us when he left arsenal is still arsenal.

mr wenger you should not hold the players future in arsenal when they want recognize their performance with fans 5-6 years without trophy reduces players ambition remember clubs are like school and parents who are the fans need better performance from their children we are tied of you bidding for players who you can not manage to buy learn from furgason being too economical will never put you in map of quality coaches what we need is trophies not how not how much you have made for the club like father like son bond of player and trophy if you cannot hunt for leave players who hungry for trophies to go thank u
It’d be silly to keep him. Its like signing a player for 22m on a one year deal. I’ve played it safw with my Arsenal shirt, i’ve got Van Persie on it :.P
It’s a nice talk,AW should buy a better replacement & stop tinking dat ungrateful nasri.No player is bigger dan d club,it’s arsene dat put us in dat position,where u ‘ll begging player nt 2 leave.AW has nt learn lesson yet,until he stop investing in french player.nasiru pls Go…
What a greedy bastard he is such a loser.
Players like him will never be remembered as great players. on the same list with Adebayor, Toure, Hleb, Flamini as they are all gone of the map
Replace him with Arda Turan
Cesc and nasri both leaving and no one is being replaced> Wenger has had the whole summer to bring in players for positions that we need, which he has not done so yet so will he place them at such short notice unless we get some unknown unproven players. This is now becoming a joke.
most of the readers are nothing but fools being fed by the bunch of fools i.e the writers. Didn’t nasri himself warned u fools not to believe all the shits u read about his exodus and well, to ur utmost surprise nasri and fabregas names were included in our champions league play off with udinese. What does that tell u?
Of course, i’d sell him immediatly.
Imagine you sell Cesc and Nasri: Yes it’s big loss because they are good players, but we will loose anyway if we keep them since they don’t want to play for us anyway.
So let’s imagine we sell them and we get 35m£ + 20m£ which is a total of 55m£ for both of them. we can get 18m£ cahill + 6m£ Per Mertesacker + 22m£ mata and we still have 9m£ to spend for a LB
I still beleive in arsene and I think that’s what will happen. we should just be patient… Let’s see!
I hope they read this. What you just described would make Arsenal the best in the Premiership.
let’s get rid of that mercenary now,we’ve got ryo waiting to take his place in the team and in our heart.go n bring cesc along with you.
