Samir Nasri to have Man City medical

[Blue In Green 86]

Problems not only in wages.Nasri criticizes Wenger and Arsenal too.I would prefer him over Kaka, Sneijder and others .

Why, exactly? Sneijder was the spearhead for a European champion. Nasri is a role player on a club that's won nothing of consequence. I'm not saying Nasri is bad, I just think Sneijder is better.

A great little playmaker, young too and can play wide.

For this reason £20million+ would be a worthwhile risk.

money + Kalou.

On surface any playmaker is a great playmaker considering our current roster, but I'd prefer a central one myself along with two out-and-out wingers (whether traditional takes on his man and cross type or the inverted ones).

Don't think he can cut it as a playmaker (to become a great one, though he can become a great final ball player like Ozil). I think he's at his best on the sides. That said, he would be a good buy but don't see it happening. I think he just wants more money and doesn't really want to leave Arsenal

I think he's really good down the centre though.

When Fabregas was injured, Wenger would play him in the centre and he was sublime. Better than Fab sometimes, his movement, control, dribbling.. Beautiful. Yes he need work on the final pass, but he can shoot too which is very good for us.

I really think he's wasted when he plays out wide.

I really think he's wasted when he plays out wide.

Yes he is, because his natural position is in the middle.

[Madmax 9,219]

He played as a winger for Marseille, though he can play behind the strikers.

I think he's good in a central role as well but not great. Remember how before this season he wasn't a regular starter and the likes of Diaby and Denilson played more than him in the centre. He loves to dribble, and he's absolutely great at it, and is very imaginitive in his dribbling and on the sides you get the space and time to use that to great effect. Add the fact that he enjoyed the best period in his career in the first half of last season when playing on the right, he was almost unstoppable. So I wouldn't call him wasted on the sides at all (and when I say at his best on the sides, I don't mean like Valencia but a free role from the sides)

He's kind of comparable to Ronaldinho (or Robert Pires), who had all the qualities you need to play through the middle but was undoubtly at his absolute best from that left side he made his own.

But that's just what I think though .

money + Kalou.

If we're offering Kalou we'd have to increase the amount of money to £30 million....

[milllz 43]

i think we shouldnt be discussing this as we havent been linked with him...

[Guest justin_3d]

I like him.

But heck while we are at it, we might as well go for Fabregas as well.

Give them Kalou and money for Nasri, and pay cash for Fabregas and we are done.

Now i can see how some ppl have such a huge number of posts. Samir Nasri joining us is about as likely as the philippines having a snow storm next week.

They should pay us if we are giving them Kalou.

[Sheva. 5,373]

The same Nasri that had 1 assist all of last season?

[lionsden 4,689]

Nasri's best position is behind the striker(s)/attacking midfield. He's not as effective on the wings or anywhere else on the pitch

I wouldn't mind him joining us at all. top quality player
