Former Gunner believes Wenger will ‘find a solution’

Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri believes Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is the man to sort out the problems at the club.

Nasri spent three years with the north London club before leaving for Manchester City at the start of the season for around £25million.

His present club top the Premier League, while the Gunners are out of the title race, 17 points behind the Citizens in fourth place. The Gunners were knocked out of the FA Cup last weekend after losing 2-0 to Sunderland, while they look set to exit the Champions League after losing the first leg of their last 16 clash with AC Milan 4-0.

“I wanted them to win the FA Cup, I wanted them to win something,” Nasri said.

“It’s football you have to accept it. Sometimes it is good to win ugly, they play good football but they haven’t won years.

“It is difficult for them, but Wenger will find a solution.”
