Agreed. Doesn't matter that it's against the Gooners, we need to condemn all behaviour like this. And is he seriously claiming that he would have gone to City (the place to win trophies apparently) if they had paid him *less*?
i do agree with you Vim...for once it seems however in life..respect works both ways....only a mug allows it to be one way...regardless of his wages etc..why should he stay quiet when the perfect opportunity has presented itself to shove it down thousands of fans of his former club..who have taunted him....always baffles me when fans can almost wish death and disease on a player just because he left thier club...yet a player cant give a well thought out..reasonable reply...such as Samir Nasri did. he is also human you know..probably got a family..kids maybe i dont know...all that comes before sucking up to a bunch of idiots from his former club who have selective thought processes and behave in a vile way..thats allowed yeah? i think not..well played Nasri. and these same idiots kiss Fabregas's arse..yet he shafted them too and had been flirting with Barca for years.
I've never liked the look of the slippery little git. It's that smarmy face of his. If you punched it once - you couldn't stop!
Talking about having the upper hand and shoving down their throats, wernt you guys 13 points ahead of us at one stage challenging for the title? Some talk of a power shift?!
3 posts on the forum and 2 of them are on the Spurs board. Nasri's comments are unnecessary, but the fickle nature of Arsenal fans is unrelenting. They appear to be easily fooled by platitudes and dislike the truth. Various players have left in recent years for exactly the same reasons, yet some are hated for it and some are loved. They seem to fall for the old "it's not you, it's me" every time.
and this is exactly the type of mentality Nasri had to cope with....irrelevent bollox...no wonder he had to put you and yours in your place and judging from your username..i dont think you know much about what is right and wrong in football..chamakh
Nasri's comments are at an interesting time with RVP deciding his future. Stay for money or move for Silverware AND money..... Mmmmmmm - difficult decision? Probably not for a 29/30 year old striker who is being lauded as one of the best players on the planet. Wheres the exit door at the Emirates?? Oh, yes, it's the squeaky one - the most well used for the last year or so....
"I made the hard choice to come and fight for my place at a big club, where they never settle for second best, and I have proved it correct." Erm, so 1 Fa cup and suddenly they are a big club compared to Arsenal? and whats all that about never settling for second best.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007–08_Manchester_City_F.C._season Their squad, a mere 5years ago when shinawatra first bought them. In heindseight I'm sure Samir has been hankering for a move since he first came to English football, who could resist playing with the likes of Future rapist Ched Evans, or Paul Dickov.
Ammaar, i agree with most of what you say and everyone has a right to free speech and all but have you seen mugs grin? Its those two front teeth...
Is there any question that RVP would walk straight into the £ity first XI. Naz didn't. He'd be behind Tevez, most definitely, and probably only equal with Balotelli.
Bibotelli will be sold, assuming they can find somebody who's as infantile as he is, to buy him. If RVP did go, what a choice for any manager to have to make! RVP, Aguero, Tevez. Three of the best strikers in the world!
Is it not also the club's fault that they let these players' contracts run down so far before they decide to sell. If it's obvious to all ( except Wenger ,maybe) that the player seems intent on leaving, surely it would be better to say " either sign here, or we'll put you up for sale now" by leaving it so late, you reduce the asking price, give the player the whip hand, and obviously, leave him able to negotiate even higher wages with his new club. In Nasri's case it seemed perfectly obvious to all, bar Wenger, that he was leaving.
Don't think Nasri was as disrespectful as Torres was to us. The real sting for Arsenal fans will be that everything Nasri said makes sense.
