Fucking amazing really how much time people spend on here defending the players that have left the club. Call me fucked in the head (which would be justified to be fair) but as Arsenal fans shouldn't we just hate this Nasri cunt by default? Of course he went for money, he couldn't have made it any more obvious. He's a greedy, greedy, cunt. Simple.

Nasri had no ties to use, he's a mercenary twat. He's not the only one. But he's sure as hell not this good guy looking to be ambitious and doing it all for the love of the game. Don;t make me laugh.
Not the same at all, we had no other bids for Cesc, he was Barca through and through and the move had been on the cards for years.

It's strange you've been complaining about what's been happening including lack of spending, not sorting out problem areas, poor tactics and no desire yet you're surprised when the better players want to leave when they've had enough.

Would you stick around or re-sign if your contract was running out?

Maybe he is a mercenary, but why shouldn't he be, he's got no ties with us and frankly why would a top player want to stick around when there's opportunities to win stuff and get more money at the same time elsewhere?
