Samir Nasri: Arsenal's Future Captain and Legend

Callum D'SouzaNov 18, 2008

Blessed with one of the best footballing feet ever, superb balance, a true footballing brain and a powerfully handy shot, Samir Nasri is a star player and he's only 21-years-old. Not to mention playing over 100 games as a little teenager, Samir Nasri, is already equipped with experience. It's no wonder he has been hailed asย the newย Zidane.

Arsenal had just lost one of their more consistent seniorย left-wingers Alexander Hleb and Arsenal needed a player who could step up and do a good if not better job
than Hleb did. Who better thanย the youngย Frenchman?

Arsene Wenger was extremely keen to have Nasri on his side, and on July 11th 2008
Nasri signed forย Arsenalย at a price ofย ยฃ12.7million. He instantly showed his worth byย scoring on his Premier League debut, and on his European debut.

His recent performanceย (plus goals) against Manchester United was stunning and superb, his natural movmentย on and offย theย ball was a mass headache for the Redย Devils and his skill, pace, and tenacity was too muchย for Manchester United to handle.

At the tender age ofย nine Samir was alreadyย in the Marseille Academy, and by 14 he was draftedย into the French U-15's side and graduallyย rose through theย ranks.ย 

Then on March 27th 2007, he made his French debutย at Marseille
while stillย a teenager. He showed great skill, leadership, and goal scoring ability at Marseille and he has already taken to the Premier League like a duck to water,ย 
being a lethal weaponย in Arsenal's...well...arsenal!

I see Samir as the Arsenal captain or vice captain (if Cesc Fabregasย doesn't leave by then) in the years to come and I believe thatย he will make it as one of Arsenal's greatest players.

He makes Arsenal's left handย side so threatening and his speedย causesย a huge headacheย for defences. By January he should be one of the top-choiceย playersย for the Arsenal midfield with stacksย more goals under his belt.

Samir Nasri is a future Arsenal captain who will be a huge part of Arsenal's future as they fight on for the Premier League title.
