Why do we all assume everything is Nasri's fault, like he owes us something?
Firstly he deserves better wages and would easily be paid 90-100k a week at Manu, Liverpool, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Inter, Milan etc. Arsenal cant expect to offer low wages in comparison to other top clubs. Assuming we consider ourselves to be one of the top clubs, which we are. Quite simply our best players are paid less then other top teams best players. This does not include Man city and Chelsea who can offer ridiculous amounts.
Secondly, as a club how have we progressed since he arrived. Not much if any. Is that his fault? No way! He has been a good player and i believe he is not far from becoming a top player. He came to Arsenal believing he would be at a club where he could win things. Everyone can see that is not going to happen with the defenders and defensive tactic we currently have. We are weak at the back and at times weak in midfield. We also lack a proper out and out striker. V.Persie is clearly more of a Bergkamp. This shows in the amount of chances we fail to capitalize on. This has been the case for several years now. If we the fan can see we cant win if we cant defend then so can Nasri and every other player. And if Wenger continues to buy the wrong player and continues to not fix the problems which are so clear to us all then players like Nasri are going to lose faith in him and the team.
Lastly the support we offer our players on match day. Its pathetic. The atmosphere is pathetic. We as fans are letting ourselves and the team down. There is no Twelve man at the Emirates.

Is it Right to Blame Nasri?

It's sad that it's now that people are saying that 100k a week is 'not enough'

I believe we're offering in a region around 100k a week, not higher but close to that sum, so basically this is a pointless article and yes Samir Nasri has just stabbed us in the back if this is true. It's definitely his fault, we've been offering him contracts throughout the year, he's just a greedy ****.

Nasri's Agent (U6563)
Assuming that the 100k offer is true and that he actually rejected signing it because of the money. Why sign 100k a week at Arsenal knowing you are unlikely to win any trophies because the manager is too stubborn to see what we all see. He can earn that 100k a week somewhere else.
So pointless article i think not

Its clear just through ja606 that everyone thinks they know what is going on. But you dont. We dont know why Nasri has not signed a contract. I am just pointing out why some players like Nasri may decide to move on.
Also people who keep saying that we kept offering Nasri a new contract throughout the season when AW in person kept saying that he wont deal with his contract until the end of the season. Where are you getting this rubbish from.
