That's assuming it's all about the money from his side. If he's thinking about his career and thinks Arsenal isn't the best place to continue it, he won't be signing anything.

That rules it out then, as he can't invoke the ruling until July 11th.
He has to inform the club about his intentions in the 15 days after the last game of the season.
Lots of players do this though, if they want out. Than the current club will take any deal that is higher than the buyout.
I don't think he'll do this. And i hope he wont.
True. However, noises coming out from his camp is they are still negotiating. Which indicates it's about money.
Not so, it is enough if his lawyers draft a letter re his intentions, he can than force it after July 11th.
I know this because a player at a Hungarian club did just the same and the lawyers say it is "by the law".
The longer this goes on, the less tenable it will become.
Then he's already late if he hasn't indicated his desire to leave yet. It doesn't seem like he has.
You need a keeper don't you?
We wouldnt know about it, I think. This is a commonly used negation tool.
Probably not that common at the biggest clubs though.
Nasri isn't that much of a tóthnorbi, I'm certain.
Has the update to the thread title been prompted by a comment from Wenger since last night, or is it the quote from a few days ago?
Think its the old quotes.
This was even before Nasri's twit no ?
If they refuse to sell to us, they'll never get another United player like Silvestre from us!
One good thing could come out of this Nasri story, which is that it looks likely that we will be getting at least 4 new players this summer. I thought with Young coming in that he could be the only midfielder coming in, but with the Nasri speculation, it looks likely another midfielder in the Nasri position will be coming in whether it be Nasri or someone else.
Erm.... so because we're being linked with someone means we're definitely going to sign someone else?
Well it means we're after a player of that type and will try to get one. whether we find a viable transfer is another matter I suppose!
Yes but we're linked with Modric and Sneijder aswell so that means at least 2 more players, in addition to the other player we'll be signing because we're linked to Nasri.
Again... so because we're being linked with someone means we're definitely going to sign someone else?
No, like I said depends on finding a player that is happy to come, good enough to play for us and a club that doesn't want a stupid fee.
Clearly SAF is after a CM, especially if our interest in Nasri is real and it's certainly looks that way to me.
BBC Sport - Arsenal fear Samir Nasri and Gael Clichy could leave
Well, the BBC tend to confirm things before reporting them properly, definitely something is up.
Will Wenger risk losing Nasri on a free by January for the sake of honour?
Let's remember, the United/Arsenal rivalry isn't even half what it once was.

If United had agreed a deal with Nasri then Wenger would be a big fool not to let him go. He'll leave for free next season.
I'm still not sure whether he's our perfect fit but at least he's extremely talented and hasn't reached his peak yet. Spending 15m - 20m on HIM would be justified.
It's the one from a week back. I thought it was more representative for the saga than the Nasri one, so I switched.
What are you whining about now?
How am I whining when I say I'd be happy for us to sign Nasri? And are you following me?
I just don't believe it for one second, no way will Nasri be coming to United. Arsenal/Wenger won't allow it, and United would know that.
If there is interest from United/Nasri in the deal - United should be trying to get it done ASAP. Don't let it drag out for the summer, either get it done quickly or move on. I would hate for us to miss out on other targets over the summer cause we are waiting patiently for the issue to resolve itself on August 31st (like Berbatov)

Not sure why the change. A lot can change in a week. Besides, you never expect a manager to invite offers for his best player. Fergie wasn't supposed to sell Madrid a virus last I heard.
The BBC headline right now is the most credible thing which suggests things are very much up in the air.
Arséne Wenger in August 2006. Three weeks later Reyes was at Real Madrid. Admittedly, he wasn't sold, only loaned out but that's beside the point.
Still can't see Nasri coming here, mind you.

'Spending 15m - 20m on HIM would be justified.' implies you don't think it would be justified on someone else.
Young perhaps?
The more I see these kinds of goals the more I would absolutely love him at United
Arsenal are closing in on Gervinho. I believe the dragging out bit has to do with Fabregas' negotiation with Barca, which could generate enough money to splash on Hazard and, a Samba. Samba being speculations, though. At this point, we start mounting pressure on Arsenal. Patience, is virtue.
Rodwell will sign.
Doesn't deserve it's own thread at all. It makes no sense. Especially coming from one who has little knowledge of these things.
Anyway, back to Nasri....
Anyway, Arsenal don't need the money. I can't see them letting Nasri go to us.
What a useless argument. Assists are a deceptive stat. Nasri has been much better than Young this season.
