In response to this, many Hammers fans admitted that Nasri could have been a great player for them. Some reckon he could have stayed for a bit longer, but the supporters unanimously agreed that he was hard done by with his injury problems.
Here are a few examples of how the fans responded to the tweet.

Oozed class, nobody could get the ball off of him. Shame he couldn’t stay fit.

Really didn’t understand why we didn’t extend the contract he was the most creative player we had

injuries ruined his time here

Proper West Ham. Injured 50% of the time, class for 25% of the time and poor for the other 25%

Should Nasri have stayed at West Ham for one more season?
Yes
No
What do we think?
The player only managed to play for West Ham six times but achieved two assists in that period. He missed a total of eight games through injury during his stay with the Hammers and was out for a total of 47 days.
Since leaving, he has already missed 22 games through injury. In fact, the player is currently out injured with a tear in his abductor muscle, with his return date unknown.
