Its stupid for the player, let the offers roll in and try to bunp up as high as you can.richards30 said:but that wouldnt make sense anyway mate!! if he was on a free we would just blow everyone out of the water on wages and signing on fee!!nmc said:Nasri no doubt already knows where he is going next summer - I heard from a tax advisor (whom I work with) earlier this summer that Ashley Young sorted his deal to the Rags 'in principle' 18 months ago! No prizes for guessing who may be in the middle of this impasse!
I personally can't see anyone offering him more than we currently are (reportedly £180kpw?)... I mean how much more is anyone going to actually offer him next summer when his reputation won't be any higher and there's a possibility of it declining and/or him getting injured by then. Definitely a case of a bird in the hand....
I would put good money on him not being on that plane to Italy later today.
