The Skipper

Fabregas 4 shirt to piss off the 3 Arsenal housemates I live with.

Slight interest is different from full on going for it though... If we never made any concrete offers how is he going to chose United over us? Like I said, United were the only team in for him in the end because they priced everyone out with a high transfer fee and high wages (100 or 160, we don't know but either is ridiculous) so I don't think you can say he chose United over us. He'd be stupid to turn that sort of money to "hope" that CFCs slight interest turns into a concrete one.

That's assuming he chose United over Chelsea because of money... We weren't ever that strongly in for him. United had no competition.

How often did you watch him?He's always been good going forward though, his biggest problem by far is defensively. He hasn't been tested thoroughly enough in the Eredivisie. There's a difference between looking quality against full backs in the Eredivisie and looking ok defensively against Eredivisie players and making that step up to a top division like the EPL. Honestly you shouldn't get too excited over him doing quite well in the Eredivisie. He wasn't even the best LB this year (that was Jetro Willems).

He hasn't been "outstanding". Hyperbole and a half. He's had a good season but good in the Eredivisie doesn't prove much at all.

It's goal.com but 160k is far too excessive... what the fuck is going on at Old Trafford. He's going to be paid more than Fabregas.

He really is an idiot.

So this guy counts Tancredi as one of his sources? Incredible.

Stupidity:

He's definitely coming then. Tancredi is an actual troll.

Must there be a post of you defending Torres every time someone does joke about him?And don't pretend like you've never said anything bad about Torres either.

Haha, if we don't sign Fabregas please don't kill yourself mate!

Lol, surely if Barcelona were giving half of the transfer fee to Arsenal they wouldn't let him go for a mere £27m...

Deal will probably be announced some time next week alongside the Costa transfer IMO... Until then just sit back and relax.

He's first and foremost an attacking full back but is very responsible at the back. A very complete player for his position. So the answers to all of those are yes.

Not sure you can even compare this to Sturridge. Sturridge was actually here at the club and patiently waited for his time. Sturridge had Anelka, Drogba and Torres ahead of him - and when the former two left and he only had Torres ahead of him who wasn't performing well he still didn't get a proper chance up front. Rightfully complained about it IMO, and because the club didn't want to renew his contract (huge mistake obviously) he had to go as he had 6 months left if I remember correctly? Lukaku however seems expecting to come in and be no. 1 striker - that's just ridiculous to start with. He could come in and be just behind Costa under a manager that does rightly rotate strikers - he would definitely get a lot more chances than Sturridge did here. He's opening his mouth way too many times for my liking. Should simply just shut up and focus on his football, and even if he did want a transfer away he could do so without spilling it out to the media. Idiotic really. Very disappointed in him. PS: if the quotes are fake, surely someone of the Lukaku camp would've shut them down by now?

Smh Romelu... Just be quiet for once.

£16m is just right. Great deal if true.

Even though a lot of other reputable sources have said City aren't even interested... Funny those lot.

Kid has huge potential, just needs to stop messing around and truly focus on his football career. If he goes to a team where a manager will get him to properly focus on football he wouldn't do to bad at a mid table PL side.

The least you could do before presenting a tweet is simply checking whether it has an ounce of credibility behind it... Someone with 2 followers are not going to be credible are they?

Come on man... Sky aren't even in Nigeria. Obviously a fake account.

"According to reports in Holland".That's different from "TalkSport understands".
