Once known for his creativity on the pitch and goal scoring ability, Samir Nasri was a fan favourite amongst the Gunners. His dynamic brand of football evidently caught the attention of several big clubs and then he started his new chapter in Manchester City colours.

What could possibly be a great signing turned out to be a bench strengthening strategy. Nasri has now spent 5 seasons with Manchester City but has only managed to score more than 10 goals once, which came in the 2013/14 season.

Since then it’s all been a been a ride downhill. However, that didn’t take any effect in his earnings. Nasri reportedly earns a whopping £120,000 a week more than their star performer Joe Hart, yet he is one of the costliest reserve players in the Premier League.

So how does it feel to do absolutely nothing but earn a lot? The once a brilliant footballer Samir Nasri might tell you about that.
