Player thread: Samir Nasri (2014/15)

[Ray78]

A very disappointing 45 mins and was rightly hooked.

 

[Proelia]

Shite as usual

 

[BlueAnorak]

Good at ball retention, but rarely delivers in big games. Only THREE times in 4 seasons [Chelsea home (2011/2012) + League Cup Final + Roma (A)] is just not good enough.
We need better.

Pushed us on to a title in potentially our trickiest fixture when we were losing

Won a trophy (1 of 4 in those 4 years)

saved our champions league campaign.

You could argue only Yaya, Silva and Aguero have put in more game changing performances in that time.

Didn't deliver tonight either (Quelle surprise) though to be fair he did try to get himself sent off .
We need to get rid.

 

[pudge]

He'll be bottling it elsewhere next season

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Flat track bully,shown up tonight.

Nasri is sheer class, retains the ball like no other player in this country.

The people who don't rate him don't understand the game tactically, it's that simple. You just have to read Iniesta's comments about making us suffer to realise the benefits of possession players like Nasri. He would be even better in a 3 man central midfield in a team with pace and energy but that's not Nasri's fault, it's our managers trying to accommodate other players rightly or wrongly.

I don't understand the game tactically then

Biggest fanny to ever wear the shirt, good when things are going our way but when we're in the time of need he never shows up

The attempted dangle of the leg tackles which a 12 year old could win and just watch and tell me where he was when they scored their goal....a disgrace

 

[rushts]

Shit house. Great at squaring up/ off the ball. Shite on it. Fucking passenger.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

His days are surely numbered with us. One good game in every four, no doubt still sulking for being dropped after his equally shite performance against Liverpool.

Not worth the wages he gets.

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

got to go, in games like this he didn't show his ability to keep the ball, was petulant throughout his brief showing, I'm not putting up with the behaviour and attitude that he showed tonight, we can get better all-round players for the level we need to go to, he's got to go and bring some cash in for someone younger and hungrier.

We wouldn't have even been playing tonight if it wasn't for Nasri who produced a fantastic performance in our time of need in Rome.
