According to Talksport, specifically Jim White, it's because Pep has no man management skills and
isn't all that he's cracked up to be.

I know we're supposed to get behind the players but I find it very hard with Nasri.
He's not as good as he thinks he is, comes over as a spoilt brat is a chubby little bastard who never looks totally fit and looks a bit too much like Suarez for my liking. (Who I really do loathe with a passion).
What's Denis ever done ? ;-)

yes i heard that as well this morning! " a master tactician but not a man manager" WTF jim
in days gone by the stars like Colin Bell, Bobby Charlton, would never dream of acting like nasri, the problem is these days they are elevated to a great height, given tv exposure, loads of cash, then we have the fawners on social media licking their arses so these players don't realise the real world (some of them) and they live in their own bubble, bring back the 70s/80s, the captain or another would have smashed their face around the dressing room, united did things a little different back then, they would have taken him in the showers and had their way with him (nothing wrong with that if that is what you are in to)
Didn't George Best walk out on utd before drinking himself to death?

So 95 percent of this Forum have taken this article as the gospel. Whatever happened to the media bias thread. Oh it's still there!

Was calling for him to be hooked in the United friendly but people were adamant he was have a great game(going forward he was doing well, some classy passing), they must have have missed his poor defensive positioning and effort going the other way... Also maybe I read the situation wrong(not watched it back) but I had flashbacks of that duck he did on Van Persie's freekick when he was in a good position to defend(for once) Lukaku's attempt to get a shot off when it hit the side netting, it was more the fact it looked as though there's no way he couldn't have got himself in the way of it if he wanted to and I'm sure our keeper was thinking the same at the time. I also think(some may not see it this way) it seems sometimes when he's gassing or not fit, he'll slow the whole team down to his pace(disrupt our rhythm) so he can look good, rather than a KDB or Gundogan who are more about keeping the things flowing, keeping the team moving quickly and fluently.
Back on point it wouldn't surprise me if the attitude problem (if true) is that he knows he's good going forward, can pick a good pass so feels that gives him some slack going the other way and wont have anyone criticise a lack of effort there or positional mistakes and so on.

Could be a good idea to just wait and see what is said by Pep before jumping to any conclusions based on newspaper comments.

To be fair if we are going to sell him it's in the best interests of the club to dismiss/deny this story even if there is truth to it.

Can't believe people have bought this story as gospel.
Nasri is often the target of media. We're not exactly the love child of the media so put the two together make up a bullshit story and let everyone run with it.
I don't buy this at all. No way our players would be saying crap like this to journalists.
Load of shit.
P.s.
Nasri stays and we have a top class midfielder (for zero dollars) giving us even more depth. Don't forget how well he played in our last title season before you hang him out to dry.

City have an offer for Nasri which they have accepted
Nasri and his agent are telling City that he won't go unless he/they receive a huge pay off
City say no
Nasri says "I'm not going then"
City say, "Ok, but you'll never play football again for this club and we'll wreck your career" (Think the Tevez saga)
Now we're in a see who blinks first competition
Such a story you imagined on the same day he is doing club promotion event and 2 days after he played a game on a tour nobody thought he would even go to. It's very logical thing to make someone doing club promotion event while you're briefing media he is the **** of the highest order and telling him you'll never play for this club again and we'll wreck your career. His promoting presence would do wonders for our image worldwide in such circumstances. Not.
