He was like a disease around the whole team!

Was glad when we got rid!

Difficult to believe that it's the same player who started for Italy in the World Cup. Should be in the prime of his playing career. What a waste. No one tried harder with him than Mancini.

I believe that Mancini gave him a wide fatherly berth that didn't help him mature however.

He must train for absolute dogshit because imho his main issue is that he never gets a good enough run in a side to get into a groove. Maybe he played a lot more at Milan but that team was desperate. And he scored a bunch iiirc.

I'll always be a Mario apologist. I love him. Just wish I could love the footy.

He is def not as shite as has been made out and hes not the world class talent him and many others believe, he is somewhere in between with a hilarious side show.

Southampton should snap him up, he score a bag ful there if played as main striker and given a long run...
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's actually a great shout. 7M is a snip for any prem team. His rep is what's stopping it and Scouse filth only made it worse.

I'm shocked!! I thought Brenda was the right manager to get the best out of him. Balotelli for me is one of my disappointing players going...moments of sheer class but lacking basics like but if grit

If Nasri was part of a deal to get Pogba I'd definitely be on. If the Club were planning to replace him with Isco I also think it would be a good move. Nasri just seems very frustrating; no consistency.

Nasri to Juventus as part of a deal to get Pogba?

That's teasing of the highest order. Getting all our hopes up, only to have them cruelly dashed again

Sorry I don't really believe either. Most likely Nasri will stay but you never know!

i don't think Pogba is coming. Nasri is additive. He'd probably do really well there.

We need to pull our finger out and get the next "crack" signing done tho. We seem to be licking the outside of the KDB watermelon, and i'd like us to slice it open and have a gander at the pink juicy stuff inside that's worth a slurpy bite.

Let's go Spafia. <Clap. Clap. Clapclapclap> Let's go Spafia. Etc...
