I'd have liked to have kept him but he probably wanted guarantees we couldn't provide. Navas is a guy who will surely be more willing to accept a bit part and I'd bet his salary is half that of Samir's more or less. The only other realistic option to go was Yaya and it doesn't sound like he has any interest in leaving so we had to shift someone. The squad is just too big to get everybody registered.This is a mistake we will regret.
Nasri was awesome yesterday and it is a long season.
Plenty of players with inferior technique who are still on the payroll
