French chief blasts Samir Nasri

French FA president Noel Le Graet has slammed Samir Nasri for his outburst at a journalist.

The Manchester City star reportedly challenged the French journalist to a fight following France's defeat to Spain on Saturday night.

Le Graet described the 24-year-old's behaviour as "intolerable".

"There is a behaviour towards the exterior which is difficult," said Le Graet. "He is on the edge, we will talk and look at his problem.

"This is intolerable. I understand the negative reactions. Samir wants to do well but he simply cannot control his impulses."

Nasri also aimed a jibe at the press box following his equaliser in Les Bleus' Euro 2012 opener against England.
