Samir Nasri Has 'Nothing but Love for Arsenal' Ahead of Clash Against Gunners

New West Ham United signing Samir Nasri says he has "nothing but love for Arsenal" as he prepares to make another Premier League debut against his old club, whom he left seven years ago under unceremonious circumstances.

Nasri joined West Ham on a short-term contract at the beginning of January and was named in Manuel Pellegrini's starting XI to face Arsenal on Saturday.

"I'm looking forward to it because it will hopefully be my first game back in the Premier League.
