I really like Nasri but cannot defend last night he put himself before the team and that's unacceptable. I do think some people are being very selective in their assessment of Samir though. I firmly believe that during the spell this season when we had so many injuries around the Roma game etc, he did stand up and I felt he pulled the team through many of those games. As I said though no excuse for last night.

People were criticising the ref last night for being card happy. He did Nasri a massive (sniff) favour in my opinion; that was a nasty, petulant kick out and was arguably worth of a red card. Can't remember if the kick was on Alba (*edit* it was on Neymar), but Nasri just seemed to want to have a running feud with him all night. The sort of carry on you'd see at Hough End on a sunday morning. Very amateurish.
He did the exact same thing against CSKA when things were going against us then as well. Got away with that time as welljimharri said:People were criticising the ref last night for being card happy.

Never rated nasri myself, poor attitude and seems like a right dick. There's not one season where i've thought i'm glad he plays for us. Get rid he's a wasted talent

One of the best in the league at keeping possession and that's why he started last night.
I have always been a big fan of him and I never slag off a City player but, as far as I'm concerned he tried to get himself sent off last night and I don't want to see him again this season (at least).

I don't understand all the hatred towards Nasri, I doubt many players in this squad have tried has hard as he has to make himself something at City (whether that's good enough is a different argument) I think his determination is what leads to the shows of frustration. However other players have done the same like Yaya did against CSKA and a few seasons ago where he tried to knock Mata's head off at Chelsea, Sergio also committed a pretty nasty tackle against someone last season I think yet no one has called for these players to be sold for the same reasons.
I fear that Nasri will always be a target for fans who don't appreciate the effort he puts in (the same with Navas and Kolarov) I think he will be a player that will only be truly appreciated once he has left. Just like we have always done with players in the past, I think some people need to get behind him rather than slag him off because of 1 or 2 incidents or bad performances.

Like Nasri always have.He's a bit chubby at the moment, why he should be, I have no idea.

He has flattered to deceive for most of his time with us. He looks OK when we have 65% possession high in an opponents half. The game is too quick and mobile for him now -he would do better in Italy. Get shut asap.
