Many are comparing him to Zinedine Zidane, others just prefer to appreciate his uniqueness. Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri is currently enjoying an amazing moment especially in recent games in which he was asked to take over from captain Cesc Fabregas in central midfield. The 22-year old, who broke his leg last July came back strongly from injury and having missed the first part of the season, he is ready to take advantage of this to shine in these last months of the season.
Speaking of the Frenchman, manager Arsene Wenger was full of praise, declaring how the midfield can not only score goals, but turn provider when required. Nasri scored one of the best goals of this season’s Champions League last Tuesday against Porto and will be looking to replicate that, tomorrow, against Hull City.
Speaking to the club’s official website Wenger said:
He had a very good game against Burnley and scored a remarkable goal against Porto. His injury during the [Porto] game meant he was a little bit handicapped. He had more presence in the Burnley game because of the kick he got.
He can score and help assists. What is important is to keep the balance between giving the ball in the final third and scoring goals. On this occasion he made the right decision and has the talent to do it.
