Bacary Sagna is confident fellow Frenchman Samir Nasri will be a big success at Arsenal.

He said: "Samir Nasri is a very good player and we are lucky to have signed him. I have played alongside him in the French national team and I know he will find his place in the Arsenal team."

Sagna also backed Nasri to step into the shoes vacated by Alex Hleb: "I think he can do it and will show everyone he can play very well."
