If they stayed....(Nasri & Fabregas)?

So he wants to hold onto Nasri as we want to win the title.

I've got news for him, he's got two hopes, Bob hope and no hope!

He's barely strenghtened, is going to rely on a crock at full back and seems quite happy with everything despite the calamity that is last season (apparently we've got something to prove - thing is this team aren't capable of proving anything as they don't have the motivation or bottle let's face it).

So basically he's happy to p*ss 20 million up the wall on a whim.

And in the othe thread you said...

Would be fine about Clichy, would not be fine about Nasri. Not only will we be losing one of our better players but who trusts Wenger to replace him adequately.

If we lose Cesc, Nasri and Clichy and don't get rid of Denilson and Bendtner it will have been another disastrous summer....so much for great spirit and togetherness!

So first you moaned that we might be selling him. Now you're moaning Wenger's looking to keep him.

There go the goalposts!

Not moving the goalposts at all, I wouldn't like to lose Nasri as I rate him highly...but I'd rather lose him now than for nothing next summer!

I'd like him to sign a new contract, if he doesn't we'd be foolish to keep him as we will lose a quality player and have no money to replace him.

So yes my point stands, would hate to lose him but would rather lose him now and get a quality replacement in then in a year and not. But yes Wenger probably would scrimp again, we'd have to hope he didn't which may be unlikely but we can hope!

We shouldn't have left ourselves open to this situation to be honest.

I would dearly, dearly love to know how AW believes he is going to win the title with basically the same team as last year, less Clichy.

Wouldn't we all.

He just doesn't seem to live in the real world these days.

What situation?? We offered hm a new contract worth a shit load of money. That City can offer a shitload more is not our fault, unless you want us to sign up to sugardaddydom?????

That contract was on the table last year. Two years before his current one expires. Is that too late??? Or should we have done it three years ago when the cunt was doing nothing for us....surely you'd be pissed off with offering 90k to someone who has done fuck all?? Just like you're pissed off we pay Bender 52k a week....

We didn't leave ourselves open to it contractually. If he doesn't want to sign, he doesn't have to sign....and if you believe all the bollocks about ambition, you're severely deluded...because the size of City's squad, he won't be getting many games anyway...or at least, a lot of the players in that side won't get games this year....that's not ambition if you're not part of a winning side, playing week in week out. That's looking for cash.

And as far as ambition goes, perhaps the little dike should have put in some performances at the back end of last season. You can blame Wenger all you like for the mistakes he made, and there was lots of them....but if you can't rely on one of your so called "big players" to produce when it matters most (and this is not down to Wenger, this is down to the player to work hard and put the effort in), then quite frankly. FUCK HIM.

I agree we need to sell, and sell now to get a return on him....but, Wenger seems to be making a statement, which I quite like. "Fuck of City, he's still our player, and you won't be signing one of our best players, because we don't want to sell him to you, you bunch of cunting cheaty moneybag cunts".

Those aren't neccessarily the only two options. He might sign a new contract or, if he doesn't now he might be convinced to over the next year depending how things go. It's a gamble but if Wenger can keep him and he plays consistently as well as he did the first half of last season then I'd rather have him than not.

Can't see him signing a new contract, simply because I don't see us being any better than last season.

If we'd invested and made changes thing could have been different, but going into the season with a largely similar squad isn't going to bring in trophies which would convince Nasri to stay.

He wants to win trophies, I don't think we can give him that at this time.

[LDG]

He's only interested in money. Christ alive.

I disagree, I think he wants to win trophies.

Money will be a bonus but his main motivation is success which we're sadly lacking around these parts.

Ok, City won the cup. But they got beaten by us at their gaff, and had to put fifty men behind the ball at our gaff to get a draw.

WE let them into 3rd place. And Nasri was partly to blame for that.

They haven't consistently shown that they can win trophies, they have shown that they can afford any player they want, and pay whatever they want.

So tell me, does Nasri want to win trophies like that, perhaps not playing much, with a team of mercenaries who have flocked to the cash (and please don't tell me they haven't bought their current status, as they were fucking shite before the money)....or is it in fact more ambitious to try and win trophies at a club which needs someone to work to achieve success.

If he actually put in the effort, like Cesc has for example, I, and every Arsenal fan would, I guess, graciously accept that it hasn't worked, and that he wants to move to win things.

But given that the fucking lesbian hasn't lifted a finger for 75% of his Arsenal playing career, I would suggest he's taking the easy option....and why?? 'Cos he doesn't have to work for it, and he'll get paid a load more money. That's not ambition in my eyes, that's a massive cunt.
