I've realized this in sports as well. Players who aren't just athletic but have the insane sport IQ are often deadly in an annoying way. Their mind just outdoes what can be physically done. Messi watching the entire game at walking pace is a good example. His sport IQ is insane and when he adds his athleticism to it, it's magic.
Then we should study nasri game againts him and clichy also, he is one of the best defender in premier leaque and ucl and i hate the days he play againts arsenal😂
Great example is Thomas Müller, he has no speed, decent Dribbling, good passing, but not like KDb, good shooting, but nothing incredible, but his football IQ is probaly one of the best ever
There was a time we had David Silva, Nasri and Toure bossing it under Mancini and Pells. As much as I love the Pep era, there was a spontaneity and elegance about the attack we had under Mancini and Pellegrini. Aguero, Tevez, Dzeko as attacking options, it was beautiful
@markovesovic8980 yea Balotelli too. He was actually the reason I started watching City in the first place back in fall of 2011, but eventually he became more of a burden than anything. Caused too much trouble

Too bad. Arsene couldn't compete with the oligarchs money, but was so stubborn he wouldn't change his game plan. Got rid of guys like Toure & Gilberto who he absolutely needed to keep up with superior talents at Chelsea, Man City, etc
And because they were relatively cheap and could be easily swayed to move. I mean, you're not going to convince players from United or Chelsea to join City in 2011 are you? Both teams had just recently won the league. But Arsenal was different.
@@DominiAeternum tbf you should also factor in the emirates, which arsenal took a loan to build where they have to pay an annual income of 51 million gbp i'm pretty sure after they got the loan they started selling their star players correct me if i'm wrong tho cause I remember this factored a role in why arsenal doesn't have much spending power
@@homersimpson6585I remember the most expensive player arsenal had bought till they got ozil in 2013 cost less than 25 million while all the other top clubs were spending 30 to 60 million on players in England and even more in other leagues.
"Pockets" typically refer to spaces on the field where players can find room to receive a pass or make a run without being closely marked by defenders. These pockets of space are often strategically exploited by teams to create scoring opportunities or maintain possession. They can occur in various areas of the field, depending on the tactics employed by the team and the movement of players 👍🏻
Thats right i remember in the right side silva and zabaleta overlap in the left side nasri and clichy that city team scored the most goals in EPL history in a season toure aguero kompany etc they beat kyle walker team Tottenham 6-0 united 4-1 chelsea 4-0 arsenal 6-3 and liverpool 3-1 that season

A lot of the best players in any sport has usually been the smartest players. Hockey has Wayne gretzky, football has Leo messi, and American football has Tom brady.

Pockets refer to areas on the field where players can find space away from opponents to receive a pass or make a play. If you get the SOFASCORE App linked in my channel bio, you can get all the stats on Nasri! 👍🏻
In football, the term "pocket" typically refers to the areas of space on the field where players can find room to maneuver and create scoring opportunities. These pockets of space are often found between the opposition's defensive lines or between defenders themselves. Skilled players can exploit these pockets to receive passes, dribble, or create scoring chances for themselves or their teammates. Additionally, "pocket" can also refer to the small compartments or pouches found on the inside of some football jerseys, designed for players to hold small items like a mouthguard or tape.
Nasri was great but for me he held onto the ball too long. David Silva was the best in the pockets because he would just drop the ball off, play 1-2s and he'd be impossible to pick up and deadly as f at the same time
Kyle Walker has had same defensive issues his whole careers and hasn’t learned at all! But people think he’s this great because he’s strong and fast which makes him good in the 1v1 🤤
How I wished Nasri, Yaya, D. Silva, KDB, B. Silva and Rodri/Fernandinho able to play in the same era in one team. Probably we would have seen tiki taka back and the best MC team ever.

Samri Nasri wasn't the fastest, or strongest but he was just very very clever. A sneaky player who in his prime was very fun to watch.
Prime Nasri you couldn’t get the ball off, I honestly thought he was going to be Inesta level.
Then he sold out for money, no interest in football
@@James-st9uubecause it’s about money after all …. He won titles at city he wouldn’t win with arsenal at the time
He fcked himself
@@ignatiusmensah1645at the time? Even if he stayed at Arsenal for another 10 years, he still wouldn't have won a trophy
He was nothing like Iniesta
David Silva x Samir Nasri. What a wonderful duo that was!
Scintillating 🪄
Yall remember when west ham signed him for like 6 months and didn’t keep him even tho he was pretty good for them

Wow thats a name from the past Samir Nasri, i forgot he played football. When thinking about Arsenal i had Rosicky, Pires and Arshavin on that side
Cazorla and Arteta too
@michaeldonne561 they are more centre of the pitch playmakers like Ø
Should be sterling because sterling tears him a new one every time they play
Samir Nasri was an absolute gem. He used remind me of a mix of styles between Zidane and Mahrez
Retired too young
Not Zidane
The common point between Nasri Mahrez and Zidane is that they all have Algerian blood and were born in France like Benzema and Mbappe
Of course, Nasri was in his prime before Walker's brain was fully developed so it makes sense he feels this way
😄
Street won't forget players like nasri and Adel Taarabt ..mesmerising

The mere mention of this name gets me mad - Kyle Walker, probably
Aw bless. Look at Howson trying to pretend he knows what he’s talking about. Sitting there like he’s won a competition
So because he’s a fan he can’t have an opinion? You sound really stupid!

Jealous much? I'd rather listen to him than armchair fans tbh.
Well it's better than you, you without a competition sitting there and typing on hate to someone else's opinions.
He's just asking questions dumbo
City bought Nasri at the beginning of their financial doping era and the rest is history. What a gift to English football the Sheikh has been…
Is their legacy tainted?
@@LustreFootball more than tainted, they have no legacy and everyone knows it.
Financial doping is a bar itself
Nasri was already in england wth are you talking about ? 🤔

Would be a good matchup you know 👀
He flourished at Arsenal.
He got fat at City.
Great player nonetheless

Slightly different eras, but yeah you’re right 👍🏻
Well neither Walker nor Rio are high IQ players.
Hard to quantify high IQ, how would define a high IQ player? 🤔
Imagine prime Nasri with this Man City
Would he get in the team now? 🤔
Today, they just have to guard speed for the most part. They don’t have to guard a player’s mind. That’s the difference.
