Nasri Deal?????? On/Off, On/Off, On/Off

[Sister of fu]

Im still in shock. Dont think its sunk in yet that we have some of the best players in the world at my club and I actually saw us win a trophy. Madness!!

[Duckman]

I think we have a great team.
What I would like us to do now is stop buying expensive established players and focus on scouting and recruiting young players who will, hopefully, grow up to be world class.

We are, definitely, there!

Did Bob or the club announced any press conference to present him?

Don't think so.

I'd imagine we'll get the OS confirmation, standard OS video interview with Nasri and the press will have there shot at him when Bobby fields questions ahead of the Tottenham game.

[BoltFromTheBlue]

He should be there at 1....Anyone else think he's gone to Greggs now?

This.

Phase 3 was first really evidenced against the Airtricity XI.

Denis Suarez looking the biggest talent we have coming through, alongside Juan Roman.

The future is blue.

Fergiscum hidden in the toilets apparently to charge out and kidnap him!

Way hey!

Cannot wait for the monotone interview on the OS...

Why is it the guy who does the interviews sounds like he wants to kill himself anyways?

It's not like he's interviewing Yasser Hussain-esk players these days afterall. Sssshheessh.

Love at the end of the video, Cookie says "come in and close the door" in a fagan-esk manner.

Poor samir, god knows what he's doing to the poor lad.

supposedly its finally finished,

Nasri completes Man City switch
Manchester City have ended one of the summer's long-running transfer sagas by completing the signing of midfielder Samir Nasri from Arsenal.

Nasri, 24, has signed an four-year contract at the Etihad Stadium after City forked out a fee thought to be around £24 million. The France international is in line to make his debut in Sunday's clash against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

Although Nasri featured in Arsenal's second Premier League game of the season - a 2-0 defeat at home to Liverpool - his exit has looked likely for months, as he refused to extend a contract that was due to expire in summer 2012.

Reports suggest he was offered £90,000-a-week to stay with the Gunners, but had his head turned by the promise of greater riches and a better chance of winning trophies in Manchester

He joined Arsenal in 2008 from Marseille and, after two patchy seasons, was arguably their best player during 2010-11, scoring 15 goals and performing well enough to earn a spot in the Premier League Team of the Season.

Nasri becomes the second Arsenal player to quit the Emirates for City since May, following in the footsteps of Gael Clichy, who made the switch during July. The FA Cup winners have also brought in Sergio Aguero, Stefan Savic and Costel Pantilimon this summer as they prepare to embark on an inaugural season in the Champions League.

I can't decide what's funnier - the sheepish-looking bird leaving Cook's office or the thought of Gooners weeping at that happy exchange between Nasri and Vieira! Cook's Brent-esque handslap with Nasri is hilarious too.

[lets all have a disco]

I bet Cook put his ten gallon hat on and struck a match to light his cigar off his snake skin boots.

Sleaze.

Did Cook actually refer to him as "man" or did I imagine that??? haha class all round.

I like the fact that Vicky Kloss is a proper Manc.....ace! Samir has never sounded so good!

Bet Cooks been boning that blond the dodgy fucker.
Anyway, top, top signing this, just hope thge paper talk of him wanting to join united over us is bollocks as we shouldn't have players of that mentality in our squad.
And Mancini wants another 1 more more signing?
Come fucking on, we don't need another 1 now, it's greedy.
And since now Nasri signed does that mean he wil have to remove another player who normally plays like Milner as i read in the paper today?
If so what the fucking hell was the point in signing players like this?
We need to put a stop to it asap, it's embarrassing if true.
