Nasri or Arshavin?

Post by Yankee_Gooner_Dandee »

It seems like this is going to be the question that Wenger is going to have to answer by Saturday. So who do you prefer of the two right now?

For me, love Nasri, but its gotta be Arshavin. I understand they both play out of position on the left and are both better suited coming inside to the middle behind the strikers, but Arshavin has that little bit extra that Nasri doesnt right now. He's quicker on and off the ball and gets himself at least a couple chances a game, whereas Nasri can disappear the whole game.

Also Arshavin, he has just that little bit more class than Nasri, he can spot and slot a pass from impropable angles, he is tough, he seems to bounce off players, he's also got an eye for goal. (it seems I'm downing Nasri, I'm not) but Arshavin is a different blend of Bisto (Gravy)

Agree I want to see Arshavin bamboozel, cuntly cole and make him look shit. Then when players are starting to feel tired chuck on theo and let him run at them.

Personally I would play both - I would play arshavin in the Bergkamp position behind the main striker which keeps him involved more and is far and away his best position and will utilise his skills more. I realise that will create a dilemma as to who would play up top with him cos imo rvp is not suited to the lone striker role but in a game like this you pick your best players in their best positions and that trumps everything else.

Arshavin, Nasri is very erratic and Arshavin is a class above the winger. Of course we could do what augie suggests and have both

The choice is made easy as Arshavin can't play in the clge, so I would expect to see Nas on the bench unless he gets the nod ahead of Theo on the right.

For Saturday its got to be Arshavin and Theo on the wings - I assume that's why Wenger took Theo off early last night.

I really like Nasri, but currently Arshavin is just in a different league for me.
