Cesc Fàbregas

[kiwi1691 255]

No mate, i just think that he is usless and need a team builded around him to play good. Let him go to Serie A where football is slower.

Are you calling a player who almost broke the assist record last season useless???

Yeah this calndar year (2015) he did absolutely nothing to stay in a team and use Ruben's place.

Because we have used him poorly. 4-2-3-1 is the wrong formation. It would be cool to see Guus play Ruben in a midfield 3 with Cesc and Matic

It would be stupid to sell him now without getting the new coach first.

Cess is still a good player. He is just to old to teach new tricks like been a more defensive player. If for instance we get a coach like Conte or Conte himself and Cesc gets a formation with quality energetic ball playing midfielders screening Cesc and doing the defensive duties like they did for Pirlo, Cesc would a vital asset for years. His skill craft does not rely on speed or power but intelligence just like Pirlo and he can last for almost another 10 years playing top quality football. The emphasizes is on solid, BALL PLAYING CREATIVE AND ENERGETIC MIDFIELDERS not just average players with athletic physical gifts but extremely poor technical skills

I stole this quote from weaintgotnohistory.

Seria A is the best place for him.

[kiwi1691 255]

If we were to sell him, what playmaker would you propose we bring in to replace him, or do you propose we have a midfield that is all physicality and no technical skill?

That's a good point but Fabregas is hardly a creative maestro right now, and we need a bit more fight in the position we're in. Maybe I'm wrong but I just don't think he's a luxury we can afford right now.

Ruben's place? You mean the player that hasn't been even getting a spot in the bench.

Don't blame Cesc for things that are beyond his power, aren't related to him and that haven't looked likely in the first place.

We should keep him because a player with his potential, given the right condition can produce a lot for us still. He just shouldn't be our only option.

Bring another very creative player either for the wings or CAM and bench him or play Ramires in a 4-3-3 to give them support.

You know the even better option? Buy an amazing, physical, complete MD and keep him ahead of him and Matic, with Hazard, and two more attackers (could even keep Costa as the striker) and we already take several steps up.

Players such as Matic and Fabregas - who are completely out of form or far from their best - should be kept in the squad because they showed what they can do on their very best, and not for a match or two but for prolonged streaks of time. Cesc only stopped playing after the whole team started to fall apart and stopped playing. He isn't the guy to turn things around, it doesn't mean he's useless. Selling him would be silly imo.

Let him leave and give Musonda a couple of chances on his spot. Seriously, how can he be worse?

Lol. Musonda in a 2 man midfield? That might work at Anderlecthcht or in some other weaker league. Rather give the spot to Rlc, more of a presence.

Let Musonda play at number 10 or on the wings, that's where he belongs.

[didierforever 7,349]

so basically, it matic's fault for not being good in defence, its chelsea's fault for not having a "proper box-to-box", or having the right formation, or this or that. but it is NEVER EVER cesc's fault. hahahahha.

Fabregas out for RLC, Oscar out for Musonda. Better? ;-)

that can work.

[Polo7 3,496]

I know how this will go.

1) sell him and everyone's happy

2) starts to do well at new team

3) everyone hates our board for selling a world class player

Rinse and repeat for every player that did well after leaving.

Did anybody, at any point during today's game, think to themselves: "We could really do with Fabregas here."

Because I didn't.

I was going to laugh this off straight away - But I want to know what you guys think.

not quite....but with Utd pushing up I felt him and Costa combined could have exploited their back line, but he would have needed protection from Matic and Mikel

Yeah, I'd sell him, and if he wants to go to Arsenal all the better just to watch the hilarious back tracking of Arsenal fans after calling him a snake

I think it's been clear, even from last season in the 'bigger' matches, that Cesc can't be here long term. A top team just can't afford to have him in the starting XI and I can't imagine he'd be happy to rot on the bench...

[robsblubot 3,508]

Nonsense, fabregas would provide the munch needed steel they(Arsenal) need in midfield.........
