Cesc Fàbregas

[bushman 2,043]

From what is known, Chelsea has offered Costa 150 thou a week for 5 years.

As reported, Cesc gets 200 thou a week. If true, how can Cesc be paid more than any other player on Chelsea´s roster?

I'm sure it was reported that Torres' contract states that he has to be equal to the highest earner at Chelsea. Looks like he could be getting a pay rise soon.

Outrageous if Torres ends up playing next season with a pay-raise.

I hate the debate on wages, it's such a grey area, and an area that the media just love because nine times out of ten it's exaggeration upon exaggeration.

Not translated it but I've seen a few quotes on twitter, Torres has been speaking about Fabregas

Personally, I wouldn´t call it a gray area. To me, it´s a legit concern. Cesc might be a great addition to Chelsea, but certainly he should not be paid the highest wage in the club. It creates an envious feeling among the players.

what is he actually famous for? besides being a dickhead?

It seems that the confirmed news was that Cesc is coming to PL, but as far as the club papers might just guessed it... We shouldn't be excited until some BBC/sky sports reports it..

Lampard was probably on a similar amount of money and he's gone, Eto'o too

[bababoom 4,478]

Here he's playing in central midfield, look at how he controlled that game, I've said all along watching him for Arsneal the past 8 years he's definitely not your typical number 10 like Mata or Silva, he can play forward for sure but he can also play deeper like in this video .

[bushman 2,043]

Chelsea saved around 400 thou a week now. However, Cesc should not be the best paid at Chelsea if the reported wage is true, I feel.

That's encouraging stuff. Granted Milan don't put too much pressure on him but he plays a lot of nice quick balls, a lot of two touch stuff (unsurprisingly) and the ability to advance the ball through the defensive lines which Ramires struggles with and Matic only does occasionally. He follows his passes intelligently as well.

A few times he gets caught in possession and I'm still to be convinced what he can do when we don't have possession but there's enough about him to get excited.

United are pressing on with a move for Kevin Strootman apparently so they won't buy both Strootman and Fabregas.

Only the Metro are reporting it, which means it's most likely BS.
