English Premier League Review: Samir Nasri’s Emerging Superstar Gives Arsenal Cesc Fabregas Insurance

Samir Nasri’s right foot may have changed the English Premier League title race. Or maybe ti was his left - I don’t know. As I think back to his 76th minute goal against Fulham, I have trouble keeping track.

It was his left foot that steered the ball past Aaron Hughes, in on Mark Schwarzer. Then it was his right foot that poked the ball out of the reach of the `keeper in the 76th minute, just as he was entering the six yard box. I guess in the end it was his left that he spun on, at that sharp angle to the left of goal, pivoting so that his right could come down on the ball. That was the foot that scored the goal, vaulting Arsenal to the top of the league, though now I don’t know which foot I originally meant to talk about. The one thing I do remember: Before Nasri danced through Fulham’s defense, Arsenal looked destined to draw.
