Cesc Fàbregas

Had a great game on Sunday thanks to Kante and Bakayoko who protected him. I hope Conte will continue with a 3-man midfield, because that´s where Fabregas is at home. His link up with Hazard is exceptional. His passing is still great, albeit not as good as in 2014 when he joined us.

I don't know if he is the best in the league, but i can tell you with certainty that he is SO much more crucial than people in here give him credit for.
I am neither blind nor crazy to believe that Cesc is not a very limited player and at fault many times, but whenever our team is clicking and playing beautiful football, i don't see any of his critics coming here and acknowledging how crucial he has been in those matches. Simply put, without Cesc our creativity is nonexistent, and that is not an exaggeration at all, the football we play without him is utterly boring and predictable. We can't just expect from a player like Eden to drop deep and start the attacks (something that we have seen time and time again when Cesc is not playing), that is a total waste of his talent. Eden needs to play right where he is playing at the moment.
Sure, i would love to see an upgrade in the near future, but that is the useless board's job, not Cesc's. Till that time comes people should stop asking from him to do things that he cannot do, he is what he is and he will not become any better no matter how much we complain.
P.S. I used to hate Cesc with a real passion and when we went after him i was 1000% against the move. After all this time has passed, i have to admit that i have never had such a big change of heart about anything in my life. And it is not just because of what he has offered to our club on the pitch, but also for his commitment and general ethos.
 


Cesc is & most likely always will be noticed when he's in a two man midfield getting overrun. He can only play in our current formation IMO

Conte should have rested him against Qarabag, because Cesc had to start against Liverpool last night. With him we would have controlled the midfield like against United. With Baka and Kante in front of the defence there is enough room for Fabregas to support Hazard and Morata. His job is to link our midfield and attack and we missed this big time yesterday. Hazard and Morata were on their own countless times, because our midfielders and WBs were too defensive most of the time.

Cesc will always have my greatest respect for the professional he is. His commitment and level of performances last season despite limited playing time was outstanding. He's charismatic, a winner, leader, and a great person to have in the dressing room. The captain's armband on him wouldn't look out of place whatsoever. Who would have thought we'd be saying this a decade ago when he was at Arsenal? But here we are. Football is fucking unbelievable.

As soon as he went into THAT situation after Kenedy's pass, I knew he will try to do something smart. If it was Willian, Bakayoko, Moses, Alonso or Pedro in his place I wouldn't bat an eye. Was really exciting.

On the other side, I think his (long) passing regressed a bit. He often misses his targets, and don't give me that "he always tries to do something risky and unexpected so of course he misses". I think Eriksen and KDB might be actually better than him at that.

Yea, KDB and Eriksen are probably better at that.. and overall ofc. 

But Cesc is still very good at it and surely is the best we have.
