Fergie has said that Nasri won't join Utd, but that 'I think he has agreed to go somewhere else."

Firstly it is up to Wenger to decide what happens to Narsi this season as he is still under contract with us.

Secondly, Fergie's guesswork is neither welcome nor invited. It's disrespectful to the player, Wenger and Arsenal.

Thirdly, if it were Wenger speculating on one of Utd's players, you can bet that Fergie would throw a hissy fit and turn a shade deeper than his expensive clarets.

Poor behaviour from Fergie in my opinion

Careful Piskie your have all the bullies cohorts over here whinging

I don't think so

 

[SAMOC]

It sounds to me like he has turned us down and is going somewhere else?? Man City?? treble your money and can play with his mate

PISKIE do you also think it's bad Wenger talking about Citeh to the press today ? as I'm not sure if it was welcome or invited ?

It could be that he enquired about Nasri and was told that a deal had already been done with someone else.

Or it could just be Fergie trying to stir up ****, because Nasri has said that he's 'committed' to Arsenal and doesn't want to join Utd

If you're referring to Wenger's comments about City's stadium deal with Etihad , then I think they were both welcome and pertinent. If FIFA's fair play rules are to be respected and indeed enforced then Platini and FIFA need to look at this deal very closely.

Etihad is owned by the Abu Dhabi government and the airline’s association with the City owner, Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al-Nahyan, a member of the Abu Dhabi royal family, is prompting particular suspicion. City now have five sponsorship deals from companies based in Abu Dhabi.

A £400m deal over 10 years compared with a £100m deal over 15 years for the Emirates naming rights wouldn't appear to be on an equal footing. Now unless Wenger's tounge in cheek insinuation

“We must have done a bad deal”

is right. I would suggest that the Etihad deal doesn't represent a fair market value and instead represents the owners of Man City being able to do an 'in house' deal that financially benefits the club and circumvents the FIFA fair play rules.

So to answer your question, No, I don't think it is 'bad Wenger talking about Citeh to the press' . In fact I think fans of any club should welcome his interrogation of City's attempts to run roughshod over the rules that are there to ensure financial parity and therefore fairness of competition in the sport.

Etihad formed in 2003..

 

[StanDMan]

Wenger has gone soft against Alex over the past few years.

It is like seeing Houlier with Alex - whenever Wenger talks to the red nose.

This is not good for you.

 

[PINKIE]

Let's not forget that Etihad have NEVER posted a trading or operating profit since their formation in 2004 which tends to make one question how a loss making company can afford that kind, in fact any kind, of money.

If nothing else then Uefa should put in a clause in the FFP rules that loss making companies are barred from entering into any form of sponsorship deals.

It beggars belief how a company that has never made a profit can afford to throw £400m at a naming rights deal. Unless that company has very rich benefactors, say, I don't know, maybe, the Abu Dhabi Royal Family for example and who were perhaps linked to the club via, say, I don't know, someome like Sheik Mansour for example

It's a massive conflict of interest at the very least - and at worst it's a blatant attempt to use an 'in house' deal to pass money through to the club and bypass FIFA's fair play rules.

I wonder what we'll see next - The Abramovich Stadium maybe?

Let's be honest Nasri is probably going to leave this summer. If he doesn't sign a new contract he will leave on a free next summer. It looks as though the only two teams that want him are United and City. Either way it's going to be a massive blow to Arsenal, whoever he goes to.

So just for the sake of being stubborn you are going to keep a player who doesnt want to be there, pay all his wages, he'll sulk all season and then come next summer he'll leave to go United or City for free. Great logic Wenger. He's losing the plot.

Welcome to the world of the Arsenal fan. Wenger is a busted flush. He needs to be put out to grass.

Who's to say that he won't sign the new contract on the table? Also your assumption about him sulking is wrong. He was reported to be smiling and enjoying himself in our pre season tour of Malaysia. So it looks as though his comment that his is 'committed' to Arsenal was born out on the tour. He will be an Arsenal player at least for another season, and quite possibly for quite a few years yet.

Your comment smacks of the same Jealousy that Fergie had when he realised that Nasri wouldn't be joining Utd.

 

[Sharpe*]

Fergie in a nutshell. He is stiring and causing unrest at a rival club.

I bet he still wants him. This is part of the plan.

God I can't stand his tactics.

Lets be honest, all you're going by are the same papers that have said Man U are signing Sneider, and even had his supposed wage figures. None of the rags have the decency to admit they got it wrong there, in our case even the Beeb ran the 'Nasri is staying' article but tacked on their old story about Ferguson making a bid. Lets face it they know much less than they'd have us believe. Just shoddy, and very likely untrue.

I'm not bothered in the slightest if he comes to United or not. Just for the sake of being spiteful, Wenger isn't going to let a player who wants to leave, leave to enhance his career. If he wanted to sign another contract he would have done it already.
