Manchester City's Samir Nasri says Stan Kroenke forced Arsenal to sell
• Midfielder says Arsène Wenger had to listen to offers for him
• Nasri rebuffs Roberto Mancini's comments about his form

Speaking on beIN Sport, a French TV station, Nasri said: "I don't regret leaving Arsenal. I won the league while Arsenal have difficulty finishing fourth."

"Wenger told me that, if Cesc [Fàbregas] left, I would stay but Kroenke wanted the money. The coach told me we'll only take Gervinho, Cesc was already gone, I had only one year left so I decided to leave,"

"Wenger is the best coach I've worked with. I only regret not having more discussions with Arsène Wenger when I left,"

"He's the one who understood me the most and made me the player I am. I'm thankful."
