Use to hate Fab but fair play, he always played out of his skin for us. Classy player who was instrumental in winning another PL title. Thanks for feeding Costa bro. Top man. All the best.

Will never be much loved here because of his Arsenal and Barcelona past, but he has shown he is a great professional and did a very good job for us without too much fuss, just went about with his business and did what was asked of him. When we signed him he added an element of creativity in our midfield that was lacking since Lamps left, not the goals but the vision and quality of passing, played a huge role in our last 2 Premier League titles, also added an FA cup and Carling Cup to his cv, contributed with his share of goals, some of them crucial and made tons of assists, i thank him for all his service for us and wish him the best of luck on his new destination. Cheers Cesc and KTBFFH

This first touch spot on pass just showed what a good eye hes got. He saw Andre come from a mile away amd knew where he would be. Always loved Schurrle too.

 

This is one of the goals that sent me crazy that year. Buying Cescy and Diego together was like a perfect recipe. The MH was just electric that season. Excellent atmosphere.

This made me crack up. OK it was childish and under different circumstances it mighta turned out bad for us. But I loved his spirit and enthusiasm. Going to watch him on the North Bank with my best mate from about 2005/06 was a great time and some brilliant memories. My Gooner mate still used to come to the Bridge to watch him till he began to take a back seat and we not know if or when he would play,

 

111 Assists in 350 games - not all starters. Lamps made 102 in almost twice as many games (Tho Lamps did score 3 times as many goals lol)

Eden calls him The Master, Bats calls him Santa. To us hes just Magic.

Would have loved to seen him chuck pizza at old grumpy.

Best of luck to you Cescy!

Ive always loved him bud. Standing in the North Bank watching him. Was a great player.

Always sad seeing a player getting slower but hes still got a gentle touch,a great footballing head and a real leader.

I threw a party when we signed him and Diego. A great partnership.

that summer we got the deals done soon, fast and effectively, mind you it was a World Cup summer: Costa, Cesc, Luis, Remy, Courtois, am i missing anyone else? one of our best transfer markets in recent years. Cheers

Thats when we have had our best windows. When we get in quick Last one was the Wee Baldy Man.

Maybe Pulisic is a good omen mate?

@Unionjack was just watching those cesc gifs, that sublime pass to split open Burnley's backline for Schurrles goal is his best one for us, also that long ball to Costa against Arse was precise and pinpoint, that is the quality that Cesc possesses, not many players in world football can pass the ball like that with so much accuracy, this is one area we definitely need to access in the transfer market.

Total class mate!

Now just need someone of his class as a Striker and ACM. Will go so much to help us take on the world next season!

mate, Kante's signing has to go down as one of the major coups in world football, nevermind the 30 million, thats a steal for a player of his caliber, this in a market that has highly inflated prices for players, Leicester must be kicking themselves everyday, altough they are the ones who found him 1st and bought him much more cheaply, but he still didn't have the bagage he has when signed for us. Pulisic i hope he works out for us, i really do, i will hold my judgement until when he starts playing for us, the kid has a lot of talent no doubt.

We do get good signings for around that £30mill mark. All 3 we mentioned have been similar price.

Did our homework. Knew what we needed. Got our targets set early. And they were ours.

Makes it sound easy lol

To be fair for every 5 signings we usually make at least 2 are hits. It's just that our high profile misses are highlighted more. Even the so called terrible players at the moment like Alonso and Willian have contributed to some of our success. Other than that Djilobodji summer we have usually been able to get at least 1or 2 transfers spot on since we signed hazard and the other guys in 2012

I personally have no idea on top of my head anybody that we can realistically sign that can provide fabregas passing quality.

I read a while ago that Fabregas said that it is a shame that Sarri did not come to coach him earlier, and he is going to be spectacular playing either jorginho or kovacic position.
