Nasri praise for Wenger and French connection at Arsenal

By Jonathan Chong on Monday, November 10, 2008

Winger Samir Nasri has praised manager Arsène Wenger for coming out from a week of criticism and masterminding a win over champions Manchester United.

The French international also said that he was comfortable at the club due to the French players at the club.

Nasri said: "Arsène is one of the best managers in the world and it's a great honour for me to play for him.

"The criticism has been unfair ... just you wait until the end of the season and we'll see how things turn out.

"It seems like a French team. The manager is French, we have African players who speak French and there is a lot of French talking everywhere.

"In France we consider Arsenal as the 21st team in our league.

"I used to watch Arsenal on TV when Robért Píres, Patrick Vieira and Thierry Henry were there.

"I think Arsène is one of the best in the world and it is an honour to play under him.

"He is very affectionate with his players and tells you the truth when he signs you."
