Both of them have been linked out of Arsenal for most of the summer. However, it seems that both of them will stay, as reports indicate. I'm going to talk about what I think of their situation and stuff like that, so please read and enjoy *expect some grammar mistakes*.
Carlos Vela
The mexican striker, Carlos Vela signed for Arsenal in November 2005 on a five-year deal for a £125k fee that will rise to £550k if he plays 50 first-team games, after long loan spells in Spain, On 22 May 2008, Vela was granted a work permit that allowed him to play in England.
He has played 61 games so far, scoring 11 goals, and making 6 assists, someone may think that his assists are poor, but they aren't taking in count that he starts games a substitutes almost always.
I've read a lot of talk on the mexican press about him, saying that he's leaving, then saying that he isn't and viceversa, but the agent has come out and said that Arsenal want him to stay and he will do so, he admitted that he's had about 8 conversations with the Gunners, and Arsene want him to stay.
However, I've read a lot of stuff on my Twitter Timeline about him, and most of the comments I've read are negative. Carlos Vela, who's just 21 years old is a great talent, you've seen him playing. He has not had a decent and proper chance to show up.
Some may think that if he didn't even make it at West Brom, a mid-table team, he would never have a chance at Arsenal, but let me explain why he didn't have any chance at West Brom, do you remember Di Matteo? Ok, that guy was the one who wanted him there, but then he got sacked, and Roy Hodgson took the charge, it was very notable that he did not want him there, and if you don't want someone on your team he won't play at all, that's what happened to Vela, and that's what has happened to players like Van der Vaart, it does not necessarily mean that they're not good players!
I'm glad that Wenger will finally give his well deserved chance next season, he really deserves it, top talent. His pace is quite good, and he's lethal when he's on the box, who knows? Maybe he could be our Hernandez.
Just a reminder:
Ahead of UEFA Euro 2008, both Nasri's agent and Wenger admitted that offers were made for the player and that a move to the English club was imminent. The deal was ultimately concluded following the competition on 11 July 2008 with Nasri agreeing to a four-year contract. The transfer fee was undisclosed, but has been purported to be in the region of £12 million. Upon arriving to the club, Nasri admitted that Wenger was one of the primary reasons for him joining the club stating "The fact that Arsène Wenger gives great opportunities to young players is very important for me. Arsène has a great reputation and he is one of the best managers in the world".
Nasri had a great first half of the last season, scoring great goal, and in general playing great, great football.

| Believe it or not! Nasri has kissed the Arsenal badge. |
Just see, he is waiting for Arsene to buy new players to improve the squad for him to sign the contract, that's exactly what we needed, some pressure for Arsene to spend, and someone, who we thought that didn't have feelings for the club has given him that. If he didn't love the club he wouldn't have kissed the badge, and he would just have left without asking for improvements, right?
For me, they both will stay, we need them, they need us, as simple as that. Vela has a bright future, and Nasri is a good player, they'll help arsenal to be greater.
