Arsenal new boy Samir Nasri is relishing the prospect of playing in manager Arsene Wenger's all-out attacking formation.

The 21-year-old, who as arrived at the Emirates Stadium this summer from Marseille believes his career can only flourish under Wenger in England.

Nasri told L'Equipe: "For me, Arsenal are the ideal club when you see the number of players who have gone on to develop there and have proved themselves there.

"It is important to go to a stable club, where there is no revolving door.

"At Arsenal, Arsene Wenger has brought through players, he is French, the team is young and we know the quality of the atmosphere there. For me it was the wisest choice.

"I have chatted to Arsene Wenger and I am going to play on the flank since it is there where the playmakers are, doubling up as wingers.

"That system suits me. I have played there for four years in the France youth team and also in the senior team. The left or the right, it doesn't matter to me."
