Player thread: Samir Nasri (2014/15)

[Esteban de la Sexface]

Our possession improved dramatically after he came on.

 

[Blue Expat]

As I said before, Nasri > Gundogan

 

[Scully]

Should have started today, but let's not pick the best team available yet again. Bye, bye....

Doesn't he play a similar position to fernandinho not nasri?

Yea what he said is just wrong in every way basically

 

[mosssideblue]

Did he have a shiner and swollen cheeks?

 

[itisrising]

I'm on the fence about him. Very good footballer but has no fight or will. Wouldn't be too upset if Pep sold him.

I'm not sure how well nasri will adapt to peps football where he will have press a lot more anyway

I think he is a class act. Will get fit for next season.

I'd hope so. I just think he typifies what I don't like about the current side; when the going gets tough, there's very little fight and character. There's no real urgency in Nasri's play; we know what he'll do and he's limited in what he really offers. Truth be told, he's not the player he was when we signed him from Arsenal that actually applied himself.

He has been good not amazing for us, bit harsh to judge him this season as he has had a bad injury. Seems to be well up for peps arrival. I hope he spends the summer getting fit rather than getting fat.

Not really just this season mate. He just doesn't seem to have the will to become great. He's mostly been a passenger while Silva, Kun, Yaya and now KDB have shined. He's not the sort of guy you want in the trenches.

 

[mosssideblue]

Not sure he will adapt well to a high tempo, high fitness game plan. Great on his day, but could quite easily see Pep moving him on.

 

[remember arthur mann]

TOOoooooooo good for City !!!!

 

[City_Sean]

Face like a smacked arse when he came on. He can't adapt to a high line system as he slows us down too much.

 

[seniorcitizen]

I'm very hopeful that he might be completely rejuvenated under the guidance of Pep.... having said that he could also very quickly go the other way if Pep doesn't show him the love

 

[MCFC1993]

Missed him massively this season, his ability to maintain possession of the ball is probably the best in the squad, we looked comfortable once he came on today.

Exactly this, fire in his belly, something we have missed !

Huh? No he isn't. I doubt he's even good enough to succeed because he lacks the will and motivation to do so.

Not surprised with the clowns he played with !
