Cesc Fàbregas

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

I have a feeling Arsenal are gonna do a Tottenham to us in this deal

[cadenza666 221]

Can't relax. Been burned on many a transfer over the years.

I'll remain nervous until I see Cesc holding a Chelsea shirt.

exactly far too many ppl already incorporatin Fabregas in their lineups.

Arsenal just have to be informed once a formal bid is received, then they have to decide whether they choose to activate it or not. could be a massive troll from Arsenal waiting till the last minute. not taking anything for granted yet.

That is why it is important we announce this deal as soon as possible. Once it is announced he is officially a Chelsea player and Arsenal cannot do anything with that clause anymore

Haha, if we don't sign Fabregas please don't kill yourself mate!

Why are people talking about this as a "saga"? the rumours only came up like 5,6 days ago. Transfers of this sort dont happen in 2,3 days. We arent in Football Manager here, especially with the first-buy option of Arsenal etc. Just have patience and wait. If we'll sign him, fine, if not we will chase other targets. At the moment everything indicates that he will be a Chelsea player but Arsenal could come in or United or whoever and hijack the deal.

If I had a dollar for each time I saw this....

lol

I won't even be THAT disappointed if we don't because at least now I'm sure José does indeed want to bring in a new CM. Just a week or two ago we were all thinking that we might have to endure Ramires for another season or worse, bring in the oldie Tiago on a pointless free transfer.

If we don't get Cesc then maybe we'll go hard after Koké/Pogba/whoever.

If the most recent board meeting is accurate then I doubt they are going to do anything. Apparently they are looking to strengthen in other areas on the pitch...

[Special Juan 27,424]

Nah I cannot see Arsenal coming with anything considering very reliable journalists from the BBC have said they won't act upon it. He needs a new challenge this lad, a fresh one, and we can offer that. Arsenal also have far more pressing areas than midfield they need to spend money on.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Arsenal will be screwing themselves over if they hijack this deal because if they spend 26m on Cesc, they'll have little or no money for the transfers they really need like fullbacks and a striker. Their funds are more limited than ours. I just can't see Wenger wasting all that money just to spite us.

Deal will probably be announced some time next week alongside the Costa transfer IMO... Until then just sit back and relax.

I'm imagining/fantasizing the Costa and Fabregas deals being announced together with a big picture of them on the official site next to each other in the Spain camp holding Chelsea shirts and smiling.

Charlie Perdios @AnthonyPepeEA Arsenal will not receive 50% of Fabregas sell on fee , only 50% of anything above 33m pounds . If he goes to Chelsea for 33m AFC get nothing

Let's do a Wenger and bid £1 over 33m so they can get 50p for us acquiring their 'legend'.

little or no money ? Arse have 50m in revenue from Emirates sponsorship per year alone ! ....the cunts will be having easily 100m+ to spend !

Conspiracy theory/me being my normal paranoid self: Arsenal are telling the media that they have no need for Cesc anymore in order to make all of their supporters mad only to sign him at the last minute so that Wenger looks like a hero for "stealing" him from Chelsea Willian style.

Chelsea will let Ramires leave if they bring in Fabregas, players decision to be made over the weekend.

========================

Now, before everyone goes, "another Palmeri, twitter BS", this guy's a legit football agent who's followed by journos from BBC, Guardian, Times and Sky. Not always right of course, but he's most likely not making things up.

[Barbara 15,149]

You guys caught the pattern? It's all written in the stars... with initials.

Diego Costa

Cesc Fabregas

Filipe Luis.

Luke Shaw.

I'd be done if it happens, although I think it's unlikely for us to sign Shaw and I think us signing two key players from Atletico might also not happen. It's the same with all speculations of PSG buying so many players from us. But it may be written somewhere

What they're making is one thing and what the owners allow Wenger to spend is completely another. Their owners run the club as a business, they want their yearly profit before anything.

Arsene just doesn't spend money at all...
