Nasri deal NOT done until July, but Arsenal fans have reasons to be cheerful!

 Most Arsenal fans will be disappointed to hear that Samir Nasri's deal will not be done until Euro 08 is over. Personally, I am disappointed because I was fully expecting him to be announced in an Arsenal shirt today, right after I'm back from my holiday. But after looking into the below reasons, we should be cheerful!

Look at the bright side of things, he is not the only creative player available is he? If he signs fantastic, if he doesn't then buy someone else. Regardless of that, Arsenal fans should take be happy with the facts below:

1. Arsenal is favorite to sign Nasri.

2. The deal between club level has been agreed.

3. The player himself announced that 99% he's going to Arsenal.

4. Arsene is French, so is Nasri. 

5. There is no other clubs with similar progress as Arsenal to sign Nasri. 

Now, its appearantly due to wage differences and if I am a money/blood sucking agent, I will advise my client to wait until after Euro 08 to sign because his peformance will be a bargaining chip. Thus, as an agent, I will earn more :)

Secondly scenario, from Nasri's point of view, "why not?" Earning a few extra pounds wont hurt!

And last but not least, the reason why Arsene wants to complete the deal before Euro is for the opposite of the above reasons where he and Arsenal can save a few pounds.

Thats business. And transfers, contracts and player purchase/selling are categorised as BUSINESS. They don't necessarily equate with footballing reasons. Even moving to The Emirates Stadium is a piece of business (mostly), with an effect on future footballing reasons.
