Samir Nasri

[Jam Tomorrow]

top class player who I think gave 100% for us. the smile on his face when we won the league in 2012 is probably my fondest memory of him. should always be welcome back at City.

Announced his retirement aged 34.
Super player on his day and he gave us some great memories. His partnership with Yaya was particularly effective.

Those 3, Nasri, Toure & Silva did unholy things together on a football pitch. Made my jaw drop. We’d never seen the like.

That triangle of death.

That triangle of death.

Absolutely spot on mate. Just unreal wasn’t it?

That triangle of death.

Watch back the highlights from many of the games in 2013-14. That triangle is just playing round the opposition midfield, manoeuvring it at will. Feeding Sergio, feeding the Beast. Palace away is a case in point, but there are many others.
I think to this day that some of the football played that season is up there with the best that's ever been played at this club. Fit to be compared with the Centurions season. The games against Spurs and Norwich: we just obliterated them. Arsenal thought they were seriously challenging for the title (remember all those chirpy posts from Gooner2?) until they came to the Etihad.

That goal in the league cup final - Jesus what a moment what a celebration

Thanks for the memories Sammi

The celebrations for that goal were immense!

 

[Corky]

When we beat Everton 2-3 in 2014 you could see what it meant to him when he came over to the fans at the end, he was the most excited of any of the players but seemed very focused on winning the next two as he was telling everyone.

A sort of prototype Mahrez, although I prefer the latter.

 

[eastmanc]

He was an amazing footballer and fitted into that Mancini side really well. Used to enjoy his link up play with Silva and Yaya.
