Nasri left because regardless of what Arsenal could offer, Man City could offer more. The sums Nasri was offered as at max £100,000 a week compared to £190,000 at City. They also stand a better chance of winning the league because they are prepared to offer these sums to the world's best players. Arsenal cannot compete anywhere near their level.

we had a solid foundation, on top of which we had a very good squad which needed a few tweaks with regards to extra personnel but Wenger put way to much faith in mediocre players. decent and surprisingly flops got fed up and decided to jump ship. as you say the incentive of more money and a better chance of winning cups hampered our chances of gaining any sort of upper hand over the other clubs wanting our players. the foundation isn't as solid as it was.
