Peace.
Peace.

I saw numerous comments raising the question as to how would Fabregas fit in a Mourinho's team if Juan Mata (and to a lesser extent de Bruyne) could not. It is to misunderstand what was the situation

Jesus Christ. This is actually happening.

World class player, Homegrown, Pissing off Arsenal, decent price, Position we need strengthening in.

We've sold David Luiz and bought Cesc Fabregas, making a £24m profit in the process.

All reasons to be happy with this deal. The price is extremely good value in this market, although the wages seem a little high based on the reports. As long as Jose signs off on this deal then it's a very exciting prospect and another excellent bit of business by the club.

Matic, Fabregas, Ramires, Van Ginkel, Chalobah and possibly Tiago is a very nice set of midfielders and gives us tactical flexibility. Cesc (might as well get used to calling him by his first name, lest I call him cunt by accident) provides cover at 10, should be an upgrade in the pivot and also gives us a rather tasty midfield 3 of Matic, Ramires and himself if we go 433.

I think he could also be a great influence on Van Ginkel who has it in him to be a similar player. The guy was captain at Arsenal so he's not some kid.

We've got players around their peak in every area of the pitch now, which is a great framework to introduce young players into. The analogy I use for introducing young players is a Christmas Tree. Young players are the decorations but you need a solid spine to hang them on. If you've got a Matic or Fabregas in midfield then you can put Chalobah there because there's someone to keep him in check. Similarly you can use an Omeruo or Kalas in the defence when you've got experience around them.

It'll take a while for me to get excited about Fabregas as a player in this team because I need to see it in action to be convinced, but in terms of the transfer itself, the way it's been conducted and some of the other benefits he brings then it's a solid bit of business by the club that seems to be (once again) drawing admiring glances from other fans.

If I am correct, he would be our highest paid player. He is good, but £150k max should suffice.

What you have to remember is that we can never know for sure what their wages are. I think he will probably be on £150k anyway, the 200k a week rumour just came from some newspaper

I mean, does anyone seriously think Rooney is on 300k a week? It's only because some newspapers think so, not sure how they would know

From an Arsenal forum :lol:

as i expected, still nothing official

it's another one of those sagas

FFS, it's only been 3 days, it's not transfer saga! How often does any team in the world complete a deal, especially of this magnitude, in less than three days? If this drags on for a couple of months with contradicting rumors and interest from other teams, then it's a transfer saga.

Now, he's the main presenter on BeIN Arabia's English channel. He lives in Doha, how in the world would he know anything about the Cesc transfer?

could be in brazil to commentate on world cup?

Uh-Oh

Manchester United have moved ahead of Chelsea as they attempt to sign Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas, 27, because they will not be in next season's Champions League and are not viewed as direct rivals by the La Liga club. Daily Express

looks like a garbage article. quotes like "united could be in the driving seat" sum it up.
