Citeh Deny Nasri Interest

But confirm £7M bid has been agreed for Clichy.

Good and bad news, IMO. Would be absolutely gutted if Nasri joined Citeh. I know financially, it would be a great deal for us but I really don't care about our finances at the moment. I want Nasri to stay.

As for Clichy, I know I am in the minority but I would have preferred if he had stayed one more season. I really don't understand why we are selling him to Citeh when he could very well improve them. Furthermore, I don't understand why we are letting him go so cheaply. He is still youngish and is proven in the PL and considering that Citeh have spent £20M+ on the likes of Lescott, Dzeko, Balotelli, etc, I would have hoped we could get at least £12M-£15M for him. Only reason I can see behind such a low fee is Wenger still feels bad for mugging them with Adebayor.

This team is going to collapse. What the hell am I hearing? Cesc, Nasri, Clichy, ..I don't know who will be next. Opposition teams will have no option but to take the already built team. They are completely ruining us. Oh God, why is everything gone like this.

We must be awake and do something. I don't understand where Arsenal is heading to.

I think the fact Clichy is joining Man City raises questions about Mancini's judgment in players. I've been having a go at CLichy for a long time, and I don't care whom he joins as I think he'll be found out there sooner than later.

As I calmed down and read newspaper reports, I felt a little better about the Nasri situation. Rebelieve he could stay with us.

hopefully you. Hopefully some club will need a moaning, whinging little child of a fan and we can extract maximum value from them for you. maximum value being half a pre-chewed penny sweet.

I think Clichy needs a new challenge as he's got a bit stale with us. I wish him well as he's been a good servant to the club but I don't think we'll struggle to replace him that badly. The problem will be financial though as I imagine getting someone as good/better than him will be around the 10-15m mark if you're lucky and we all know how much Arsene likes paying those sums!

Aint that the truth.


Citeh are laughing. They've lo-balled us knowing that Clichy is free at the end of the season anyway. He's obviously told them that he will certainly not signing a new contract at Arsenal whatever happens.

Personally, I think he's a big loss. Though he was only a squad player, he played in a squad of invincibles and actually has a title winner's medal. He's also one of the few defenders in the game that Walcott can't totally strip for pace. I'd rather all the fast people were on our team thanks

I would be glad if I am worth some commercial value. I don't mind even if I give my soul to my beloved Arsenal mate.

Let them have him, seriously people seven million for a full back who can't head a ball, judge anything in the air or a bounce from one of our main rivals next year is a good deal.

I'm not one to criticise for the sake of it but come on, Clichy is the weak link at the back and i won't hear anything about others not tracking back thats a different issue. He has poor judgement of when to just get rid of it and when to keep hold of it, and hasn't a clue when the ball is hoofed long. He offers little going forward, when was his last assist or goal? Not saying that's his primary job but I remember Sagna scoring and getting a couple of assists last season.

Its been clear for years that Clichy never has been or never will be a replacement for Cole, let City have him and maybe we can get a few cheap goals by hoofing it at him and watching him tragically misjudge a bounce or a header. Take the 7 mill and sacrifice all his so called pace, maybe Wenger will invest in a full back who can do the basics.

Gibbs

What I've seen he is as good as Clichy and with Traore coming back from abroad we have cover there as well.

Sorted 7 million for a player who would be leaving next season for free is not bad business. Come on we have known that if he didn't sign a new contract he was gone, would have prefered him sold abroad but would have liked to see him go for more seeing as its Schitty.
