Cesc Fàbregas

Why do we waste server space on this guy?

[Special Juan 28,096]

This guy is like Sergio Garcia...a proper potty mouthed little tramp that is a waste of oxygen.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Expensive. A bit of an A-hole. Money would go to arsenal. Better, cheaper options out there imo.

Would much rather have Modric, or gundogen or witsel to play in the pivot.

Do you really want to rate players on their performance? What about Torres ?

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TORRES.

[Pascal Newton 33]

Don't want him. There's something about his face that makes me want to throw up at the thought of him wearing the Chelsea shirt.

[Pascal Newton 33]

I don't like how people are coming up

The same way we shout "Torres, Torres, Torres" at the Bridge if he puts in a good showing.

That's different. The only fault of Torres is that he isn't as good as we thought he would be. He never bad-mouthed the club. I'm not going to forgive someone for bad mouthing our club just because they came and gave us 20 assists/goals or won us a Europa league etc. Never!

He would probably spit on Ballack again if he were still here. Stay classy Cunt Fiberglass, stay classy.

Yes, and in the end Rafa got us 4th place and a trophy and therefore earned the respect of quite a few fans who disliked him. Need I say more?

And deservedly so, but that is not what i meant. I meant that before Rafa came and when he just arrived nobody wanted him here because he said horrible things about us, even in the end after he earned the respect of some it was clear that he was still unwanted. Fabregas said some things as well, spat on ballack, etc. But some would welcome him. If attitude is not a problem in football then why the double standard? that is my only question.

Im not against or for Fabregas, im just pointing out the double standard some people have.

Barca fans seem fed up with him as he has failed to fully integrate into their team. Whistles from the Camp Nou crowd are a regular occurrence and reading through some of their forums shows a similar sentiment. He's not valued. He's become a scape-goat.

I won't mind if we put in a cheeky bid for him. It's almost impossible but it's not beyond the realms of possibility with this stupid Barca board in charge. Of course, it's up to Cesc to make the right noises. He was regarded as one of the best midfielders in the world when at Arsenal, now no one even talks about him anymore. At Chelsea, we have everything in place to get him back to his previous level. Imagine this guy playing next to the likes of Matic.

He doesn't fit our team.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

He doesn't fit our team.

And how exactly does he not fit our team? Can you elaborate on this?

Too slow and not dynamic enough in my opinion. Great technique/ability but not for us.

I don't know too many people who think Fabregas is a "slow" player or not dynamic enough. He is one of the most dynamic midfield players in the world. Can pass it, shoot it, dictate the tempo of a game and retain possession. He's a complete midfielder and he is used to the premier league. And you criticize his speed when Lampard, a player even slower than him, has been our main midfield lynch-pin for a decade.

Fabregas on the other hand was the main main in Arsenal's midfield at their free-flowing, fast-paced best.

I'm sure most Chelsea fans will love to have him hear based on his tremendous talent alone. You don't make a convincing argument at all, bro.

I think he likes us as much as we like him.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

I think he likes us as much as we like him.

It's not about who likes who, it's about what is best for us and him. Eto'o made some disrespectful comments about the club in his Barca days but today he is our player. Two marquee signings like Costa and Fabregas will elevate us to Madrid and Bayern level squad quality and we will dominate the league for a decade. Both right now are doable.
