Nasri Gamble

[Penguin]

If Nasri does stay, we'll have an unmotivated, petulant player on our books who's unlikely to give a 100% for us. Sure, he'll produce some great moments of skill and score some good goals against crap opposition when the pressure's off to ensure other clubs remain interested in him, but when the pressure's on and when we need players to stand up and be counted, expect Nasri to turn in dogshite performances, because he knows he's going to leave in a year, so why should he run through brickwalls for his current club?

I wish we do sell the twat this summer, otherwise we'll have a zombie footballer who we cannot rely on in the slightest.

While I do agree with you that we should sell him, I think he'll play out of his skin next season. Or at least try to. The better he performs, the more clubs there will be after his signature. Without a transfer fee involved he can walk into any club that's interested in him.

If its not about the money for him, why not sign a new contract, and put a release fee in his contract that way he would ensure the club that stood by him when he was injured get a healthy payment as well.

Because he doesn't give a shit about this club and that would lower his wages and/or his signing on fee.

Is there even space in our team for Nasri now? Gervinho and Miyachi will likely take the role he occupied, unless of course Wilshere is dropped.

If its not about the money for him, why not sign a new contract, and put a release fee in his contract that way he would ensure the club that stood by him when he was injured get a healthy payment as well.

It's pure greed with this guy. If he signed a contract now his signing-on bonus would be a fraction of what he stands to gain if he leaves on a free next year. This guy has engineered the whole deal to ensure he wins (obviously I'm not talking about football matches and trophies here - heaven forbid) regardless of how much harm is inflicted on the club. Because you're right, he could easily make a deal that allows him away next year but also guarantees we get a fair price for him - even a 2 year deal would help us out. But he won't sign and this tells us everything about him. I wouldn't mind if he just came out and said it's about the money, but he's even started up his whine about trophies, ambition and all that shite that means nothing to these modern day players. Deceitful greedy little shit - he's tried to foster an image of being a straight talker but he's the exact opposite. I don't think he has an ounce of respect for Wenger or else he wouldn't be putting him in this position, there's a win-win available here but Nasri wants it all. He's a hate figure for me now, shitty little lesbian tool. I hope he doesn't get a game all season, rots on the bench, is quickly forgotten about by City and falls victim to the new financial regulations which will mean clubs can't just pay 100 dickheads stupid money. I hope he hangs on in his efforts to screw us and nobody wants him or his fucked up wage demands next year. I hope he has to grovel back to the negotiating table and Wenger tells him to fuck off and die. Wouldn't it be great and a refreshing change if it worked out that way?

I dont want to burst anyones bubble but we arent winning a thing again under our current management. Thought that last summer. Actually thought i might be proved wrong in the Carling Cup. How foolish of me.

This from the starter of the Mindless Optimism Club, so he says anyway.

Sometimes I get the impression he is not keen on Arsene.

Agreed (pun very much intended) Nasri could sign a two year deal with a big payrise, which means we can sell him next summer. Wenger was the one who spotted him and got him noticed so he's now in the french team and one of the best midfield players in the PL. He's a greedy bastard (bit so are nearly all PL players), but worse he's screwing over Arsenal, who made him into a great player rather a potential great one. And who's to say he'l play week in week out at City, they play a hugely different game to us, and he may soon find himself benched, then sold on to a lesser team.

Sadly true, I can only pray that Adebayoritis strikes him.

good post NQ - I have been saying we should cash in and then buy in with what we get but I never thoight that Nasbo could show some gratitude by sugning thus allowing us to get some dosh in the event of him holding out on the final year
suppose cunts dont think like that tho do they?

[Kano]

i dont see why a footballer would commit to another two years and risk being held to the extended contract in its full terms. look at modric. he was an idiot to sign a six year deal last season but the point remains he could now be stuck there for good.

let us not forget that players are heavily advised by agents, when i say advised i mean controlled, as there is plenty in it for his agent should nas leave on a free.

the whole deal is being made out as far too simplistic; sell him or why not sign an extension as gratitude so arsenal claw some money back, when there are far more dynamics to it than that.

not really. the contract terms would be verbally agreed with city by sept 1st, signed and sealed by jan 1st. he could get the deckchair out for the whole season if he wanted. theres simply not enough time to put city off.

The financial dynamics, that's the point. This fucker is trying to pretend his motivation is to win trophies, but the reality is he's a greedy bastard who has fuck all loyalty even though he runs around kissing the badge. He's a cunt - not the first and not the last to be sure, but his greed, ingratitude and selfishness coupled with the fact the cunt isn't exactly a trophy magnet is hard to bear. Pieces of shit like Nasri are killing the game we've all supported for so long. Why should anyone try to see it from his point of view or attempt to understand his motives? Fuck him. It's our money in his pocket, not the other way around.
