football. 'At home we are one of the best' - Nasri

'At home we are one of the best' - Nasri hails Manchester City form
A 6-0 win over Tottenham has added to past 7-0, 5-2 and 4-1 triumphs domestically and in Europe at the Eithad Stadium, and the midfielder says the team will only improve further


Samir Nasri says Manchester City will not go easy on Viktoria Plzen after securing a place in the Champions League knockout stage and beating Tottenham 6-0 in the Premier League.
Andre Villas-Boas' side suffered their worst defeat since 1996 on Sunday as City took their league goal tally to 34, adding to the 11 already scored in Europe.
And Nasri warned Plzen, and other upcoming opponents, that the club will continue to go from strength to strength as they look to compete at home and abroad.


"We are all in a good mood and we want to win because we are still going to fight to be top of the group," Nasri told reporters.

"We know that is really important for the knockout stages to be first so we are going to fight until the end even though we have already qualified.
"At home we are one of the best in Europe. It is not just against Tottenham, we had good performances against CSKA [Moscow], Manchester United and Norwich.

"It's really good what we are doing at home, but now we have to copy it away from home."

A 5-2 win over CSKA in matchday four confirmed City's place in the last-16 stage for the first time in their history, and Nasri feels the squad bonding and learning from each other has finally come to the fore.
Nasri continued: "I think we have improved as a team and have more experience in the Champions League.

"The last two years were the first two editions for Manchester City. You cannot buy experience. We are better as a team."
