I never liked the purchase, I thought we were ripped off. But on the balance, he is a pretty good player. Great in possession, fantastic movement off the ball, and hustles more than he gets credit for. Not a very energetic player going forward, and his topspeed isn't great. But he is a quality role player.Might be an unpopular opinion (especially after today's win) but we have really missed Nasri this season.

Ripped off? 24m wasn't it?I never liked the purchase, I thought we were ripped off. But on the balance, he is a pretty good player.

I want to see Nasri in a Pep system. His on and off ball skills plus movement in attack should shine with Pep, IMO.Ripped off? 24m wasn't it?
Pretty good price imo. Considering the form he was in before we purchased him also, was excellent in the season before we bought him.
I like Nasri, will be interesting to see if he is still here in the summer.
I tot 24 million was too much for a player with 1 year left. And seeing how they bad ripped us on Toure and Adebayor, I wasn't really bid on getting another player from Arsenal. Besides, I though Mata would have been a way better fit, seeing as he already had a relationship withour Silva, and it was clear his club wanted to move him.Ripped off? 24m wasn't it?
