Samir Nasri has been named French Footballer of the Year.The midfielder has been in fantastic form for Arsenal with 12 goals in 21 appearances this season and topped the France Football poll.Nasri was a surprise omission from Raymond Domenech’s World Cup squad last summer but has now regained his place under new coach Laurent Blanc and was instrumental in Les Bleus' 2-1 win over England at Wembley in November.He finished ahead of Chelsea’s Florent Malouda with Lyon goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in third.

Szczesny: I psyched-out Rooney to miss penaltyArsenal Rookie keeper Wojciech Szczesny last night claimed he psyched-out Wayne Rooney to force the England striker's Old Trafford penalty miss.Rooney, still without a goal from open play for United since March, smashed the late spot kick high into the Stretford End although Manchester United held on to their narrow lead to replace the Gunners at the Premier League summit.And 20-year-old Szczesny, who made three stops to foil the Scouse ace, insisted the spot-kick blunder was down to his act of kidology.Szczesny said: "I did prepare myself for a Rooney penalty before the game. I actually decided to try to delay him, show him my presence and hope for the best."Maybe my presence put him off and made him miss it."It's obviously a mental battle between the goalkeeper and the striker, a psychological battle, so I tried him and stand off my line for as long as possible, until the referee put me on the line. Then I made myself big and he missed."People were congratulating me for the saves in the second half but I don't think they were fantastic stops."Anderson pretty much hit it straight at my chest because I was in the right position at the right time and the second one, I don't think Rooney connected very well. I was a little bit scared when he took it on but if it had been a little bit higher, as he was trying to do, I maybe wouldn't have got it."The young Pole, on his Premier League debut after Arsene Wenger decided not to risk Lukasz Fabianski, insisted that Arsenal were not done and dusted in the title race despite another dispiriting defeat.Wenger's side have now lost 10 and drawn one of their last 11 games against United and Chelsea and have already been defeated in five league games - and two in Europe - this season.But Szczesny - who this time last year was starring on loan at Brentford - insisted Park Ji-Sung's winner was a fluke and added: "We were disappointed with the result but we still believe we are one of the top sides, if not the best in the Premier League."We feel we can beat pretty much everyone, that we can recover for the game against Stoke on Saturday and be back in the race."After the match we all talked to each other. Win or lose we talk to each other and we wanted to pick ourselves up after the game. We have a lot of experienced players in the dressing room and everyone tries to help each other. There's still a good spirit in the team."I think the team performance was quite good. We just didn't get as much luck as United did."They probably had more chances to score but I felt the goal was pretty lucky."I don't think Park actually meant to head the ball. It just hit him on the head and went into the top corner. With just a little bit more luck we could have got something out of the game and we're still confident we are the top side in the Premier League."But we don't get too down. We're still very confident and as long as we recover for Saturday and put in the right performance we can get three points and be right back in the title race. We can add a little something to our game and then we will be right up there."United might still be unbeaten but of course they're beatable. Everyone is beatable. The Premier League is very tight this year."They do have a very solid back four, if I'm honest with you, but they are beatable and I think if we had a little more focus up front we could've scored a couple of goals."The manager just told us we had to focus on the game on Saturday. This is gone now, unfortunately, and we have to focus on the next game now."Szczesny's reflections were echoed by Russian schemer Andrey Arshavin, who insisted: "We didn't deserve defeat, the match was a battle. United had more luck than us during the game, but we were not able to create anything special near their goal."We didn't play for a draw, we simply acted responsibly in defence and looked for our chances to attack. If it wasn't for a fortunate bounce at the end of the first half, we would have gone in at 0-0 and the second half would have been easier."There is no time to be melancholy or sad, we need to forget this defeat. The championship is very interesting this year and nothing has been lost yet."As for himself, Szczesny admitted he was relishing his time in the spotlight. "I really enjoyed it," he added. "I felt some kind of pressure before the game but I didn't feel nervous at all. Overall I enjoyed it, apart from the result."I'm the reserve keeper and I have to take every chance I get. This was a massive chance for me, to make my debut at Old Trafford and I thought it went pretty well. Unfortunately it didn't help us to get any points. But this is my big chance and I intend to take it."
