Arsenal should keep http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Samir-Nasri-c32360: EPL News
In 2008, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 acquired the services of the French international Samir Nasri from Marseille for a fee of £12 million. Nasri had agreed to a 4-year contract with the Gunners.
Three years have gone by and Nasri has undoubtedly justified the £12 million that was paid for him. He has been a star performer for Arsenal during his career at the club.
Despite the fact he spent his first two years finding his footing and occasionally displaying the brilliance that had made him a great player to watch. However, this season he has seen a break-through performance due to which he received nominations for
both the PFA Young Player of the Season and the PFA Player of the Season.
Although he won neither of the two awards, he was named in the PFA team of the season, which served as due recognition to his undue talents.
His young age will only go further in helping him. He is only 23 years old and the only way he can move is forward. His best is yet to come.
Although there is no doubt to the fact that he is a superb talent and will get only better, there is a lot of doubt over the club he will be playing for when he reaches his prime.
With only a year left on his contract, the rumour mill is in full swing over his likely destination if he refuses to extend his contract at Arsenal. Arsenal has failed to win a single trophy in six years now and Nasri may leave Arsenal in search of winner’s
medals.
Having firmly cemented his place as one of the best midfielders in not only the Premier League, but across the globe. It is justified for his calibre to search for a team that will help his ambition and desire for trophies.
His performances are more than enough reason for Arsene Wenger to make sure that he retains his star at the Emirates for next season. Due to the fact that Nasri has performed at the highest level, he can dictate terms over his contract and Wenger would have
to oblige is he is to keep the Frenchman at the Emirates next season.
The Gunners would also have to assure him in terms of potential signings to the club and reinforcements in crucial places needed to secure trophies next season. With http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan and Barcelona lurking behind, Arsenal cannot take any chances with the satisfaction
of Nasri and needs to convince him to a new contract soon.
If the contract negotiations break down, it would be a mighty blow for the Gunners, who are in a crucial phase and under immense pressure to deliver trophies.
If Fabregas does leave for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, then it would be all the more important for the Arsenal's manager to hang onto this supremely talented youngster.
Also the fact that Nasri loves to play in the central attacking midfield role which is currently being occupied by Fabregas and Nasri, does not like playing out wide where he at times become a lone figure. This could be a negative for the Arsenal boss who
sees both him and Fabregas essential to his plans for a successful next season.
Nasri has superb pace, outstanding vision, pinpoint passing, mesmerising dribbling skills and fantastic skills on the ball. He is a true two-foot player and can fire scorching shots with either of his feet, possess tactical awareness and a good eye for the
ball. He is an ideal player that any team wants in their club and is all the reason for Wenger to keep him in the Gunners.
His long term future should be secured with Arsenal to wade off interest from other European power-houses. This French footballer of the year 2010 should be the prime target for Arsene Wenger.
