Cesc Fàbregas

Chalobah.

If City lose Yaya they're fucked. If Liverpool lose Suarez they're fucked. It's the nature of sport.

Still not convinced that Fabregas is sufficiently good defensively or has a high enough workrate, but if Jose thinks he does then I trust him.

Exactly. You can't have a top backup for every position. Every club has players that are irreplaceable. I like Fabergas a lot but I like him more with a different manager/different system.

Matic - Fabregas does indeed sound really good.

I am generally not as passionate about certain thoughts that i had 5-6 years ago even if there was bad blood then.

Simply rating Cesc on his ability and the likely partnership with a defensive minded player like matic, and it sets a good balance for that position, and the rest of the team setup as well.

I am glad that as a second option to our defensive 2, we are going for an attacking intelligent option rather than a defensive option again.

We need an attack minded player to be able to do smooth transitions, so either fabregas or a player with those sort of characteristics is what i feel we need,

We dont need another defensive rock next to matic..... we need the transitionary playmaker with a few goals.

Cesc Fàbregas seems to be Chelsea bound. The player may have even had a medical at #CFC last week according to unconfirmed reports. (MARCA)

Yeah, literally every reputable Spanish paper is reporting it now. It would be an amazing signing. Something this club has desperately needed for a while now. A creative force from deep.

Yeah but not a peep yet from Sky or BBC.

Will be a perfect signing. His accurate through ball in counter attack fit our system.

[Special Juan 27,101]

I have got friends in Alicante and they have said it's all over their local news and every sports bulletin on air.

[DanishBlue 426]

Hmm... I dont know if he would be the right guy for our pivot and I dont want him to take Oscars place.

Has he ever played in a pivot? I always thought he was higher up the pitch.

[Severinb 309]

Doubt it will be easy getting him. Arsenals buy back and first option could be a problem. I mean are they really that stupid even if they dont want him why would wenger let us get him. I can see them getting him in the end!

[Mr_President 404]

Never liked the guy but the second he becomes a Chelsea player (if he is signed) I will back him like all of our others.

Matic-Fabregas? Yes please.

Makes sense, this is a make or break season for Mourinho. We need someone who can come in, and where we don't run the risk of them not adapting to the PL. Cesc gives us everything + he's versatile (homegrown also). Not to mention the price tag, this sounds almost too good to be true!

Chelsea have reached an agreement for Cesc Fàbregas. Price: €36m. (El Mundo Deportivo)

[Special Juan 27,101]

From El Mundo..

The departure of Cesc Fàbregas is priceless. The Barcelona midfielder has priced club Arenys at 36 million euros, a figure that will recover the investment in your day. Chelsea are the club of the Premier has already reached an agreement with the player and that, therefore, has all the aces in hand to finish counting Cesc in its ranks, after confirming the departure of Frank Lampard to New York City.

I was against this transfer before but now when you think about Matic - Fabregas it sounds much better so this would be a good signing.
