Re: 20m for Nasri
Of course but that's the reason why I can't understand people even thinking about Ramires or some other Chelsea regular and let alone suggesting something about it.
There's nothing City (and pretty much anyone else) can offer to Chelsea player that he can't have there and Abramovich might sack manager each month but their players stay there for years if they are good.

It's happening all the time, players moving from Chelsea in their prime is sooo usual thing. Lol

Looks like there might be genuine interest from PSG though it's strange he talks about it in such open way during the season, these are Leonardo's words:
'The idea of seeing the great French players here is something I like,' he said.
'I'm not necessarily talking about Benzema, but maybe (Samir) Nasri, (Franck) Ribery or (Yohan) Cabaye.
'But I do not know if it is feasible and I have not had contact with any of them.'

If they'd give us circa 20mil then I'd carry him there.
Play it right and we could make PSG pay up big for a player with such inconsistency & low contribution.
It's a crying shame really because I think we can all see that he is very talented and occasionally does show glimpses of what he can do in tandem with Silva or without, but I think we've seen enough to now know that we can't get the best out of him on a regular basis.

Define "class act".mancunial said:Why is their is only me who thinks nasri is a class act?

As per the above, how would you describe that?
He has talent, a lot of it, and he has class.
Problem is he just does not translate that consistently to game situations, and as a result we rely far too much on the one creative outlet in Silva and when he's not there we generally lack spark and imagination.
He's taking up a very important role in the squad as secondary playmaker and he needs to be able to delivery reliably and justify his position and pay packet. Instead, he's resembling a talented but inconsistent 19-20 year old trying to find his feet in the top league who fades in and out of games. A club with very high ambitions like ours simply can't afford to carry a player of his level of contribution in his role, imo.
We all know Mancini is frustrated with him, just like most of us are. If he can somehow lift his game, then I'd like to see him as a City player for many years to come.

I backed Nasri at the start of this season, against people grumbling about various alternatives we could have signed. I figured he has the talent & the experience of playing Premier League, plus decent workrate when we lose the ball, & of course, he was a Premier League Champion.
After having a season to bed in, I figured he had everything going for him to succeed, & would this season take the weight off Silva plus add more goals.
What we got was mediocrity.
I won't object to him staying but I don't trust him at all now & don't expect an improvement next season.
Imo, if we can sign two new attacking mids, then dump him. If we can only get one, then keep him.

No idea why on earth you think this - probably answers your question......
I cant think of a single redeeming feature that Nasri has - and I thought that before we wasted money on him.<br /><br />-- Thu Apr 18, 2013 8:06 am --<br /><br />THE only reason Nasri is performing a little better now is that his agent has told him he's in the shop window.

Going to PSG by looks of it. Can't help but wonder what the future of Pastore is being as he's unsettled there.

Nasri put a real shift in v Wigan & really worked hard when we lost the ball. Much moreso than Garcia or Yaya.
If we could encourage that side of his game, there would be room for an extra attacking player against some teams.

he needs a kick up the arse to get him into gear, he only had good seasons because of graft from being left out of the french national team.
when he is good,he is a gem. i think he needs a 1 on 1 motivator!

He needs to be played through the centre as a matter of importance. His quality is utilised best there.
I think he's playing for a move personally.

This ^^^
I hate slagging off one of our own, but the bugger just shits me every time I watch him play. All the class in the world, none of the application. Plays like he's bored and afraid to get hit; no balls, half-paced and whiny.
Chalk it up as a gamble worth taking, but time to move on.
Disappointing. Capable of great things.

He is either playing well because he want's to show Mancini he deserves to be part of this team or he is impressing PSG.
Either way we are reaping the benefits of how much better he is playing.
Personally unless we are going to start him in the center of an attacking three next year he should be sold. The money from this transfer reinvested in a attacking mid/winger such as Sanchez would be the ideal replacement.

Nasri is a form player in my opinion, when he is top of his game like we have seen in the past few weeks, he is a class act and will get in most if not all teams in Europe, when he is having a mare he goes missing and it can be like playing with 10 men.
Silva on the other hand on form is a class act, but even when he has a bad game his play can still be influential.
If Nasri can play like he has in the past few weeks then there should be no reason for him to moved on, maybe he just needed a good bedding in and now he seems to feel part of the team.
