Wenger - Nasri can have a great future here
Saturday, 31 January 2009
Today Arsenal will plays against West Ham. This is important game for arsenal to win despite they fail to win last game against Everton, this game will give them little bit space against Aston Villa ,but hopefully Aston will lose or draw.
Samir Nasri and Van persie hopefully tonight game they will show good performance to win and score more goals as well. Arsène Wenger believes that Samir Nasri has all the ingredients to become a major star at Arsenal.
The French midfielder moved here from Marseilles last summer and his creditable tally of six goals in 23 starts includes vital strikes against Manchester United, West Brom and Hull City.
Since his arrival Nasri has been likened to former Arsenal favourite Robert Pires and, although the comparisons are rather obvious, they are compelling. Both are French, both left Marseilles for Arsenal and both are creative midfielders with an eye for goal.
Nasri has a long way to go before he emulates Pires' medals tally but, despite joining Arsenal at a much younger age than Pires, he has adapted quicker. Wenger expects Nasri to emerge as Arsenal's creative hub in the years to come.
"What people forget is that Pires arrived at 27 and Nasri arrived at 21," said the Arsenal manager.
"Nasri has a great future because he is that kind of player, he can score goals, he can dribble, there is more power to come from him and I think he's adapted quite well.
"Yes [he reminds me of Pires] but he can also be a central player.
In my opinion, all what we can say about nasri is great but to win in a game we need all team to give their best shot and cannot belong to a one person for get the goal. All player should try shoot on target, it will give more opportunity to score.
