Based on Fabregas tweets above and in previous pages, I'm inclined to think that this bit of news should go straight to the dustbin.

I hope he can cement his place in the starting XI soon, we need technical players in midfield going forward. Look at City or at all the other top teams. Yes he has shortcomings when it comes to defending, but with Kante we can compensate them. It's just sad seeing a player as limited and one-dimensional as Matic playing as advanced midfielder when we have one of the best passers in the game sitting on the bench for 75 minutes per game. We should look to keep Fabregas and play him with Kante and Oscar/Matic in midfield until summer when we should by someone like Nainggolan or Veratti.

Fab has been a total professional and it boggles my mind why the guy who created more chances than all of Swansea in his limited minutes can't start in a midfield of Kante and Oscar Chalobah.

I actually been thinking about and it would work really well. Chalobah would make up for Fabregas defensive issues and kante's passing. I know that is a dream, but we really should start promoting our youth and not only that we brought for 30£

Im all for promoting youth, but ones either good enough or with clear potential to be, Nat falls into neither category.

If we are going down the route of playing not good enough youngsters then we might aswell recall Kalas, Bamford, Hector and Atsu and accept a status as lower PL/ upper championship team.

Yup, pretty much it. Chalobah had the potential of becoming a starter a few years ago, for various reasons he was never able to/given the chance to take the necessary steps. If it's gonna happen at some point in the future it's gonna be a loooooong process, no need to play club-trained players for the sake of it though.

He really does not deserve to sit on the bench,especially because the reason he does not play is Oscar.According to many users here,he does not play because Oscar is a pressing machine and wins a lot of tackles,but we still concede so many goals. I would rather have Cesc,who actually can play good passes,world class passes and he dictates the tempo of our play so well. If Conte does not play him in the next few matches as a starter,then we are seriously in trouble

He made things tick when he was subbed on. As always Fabregas>Oscar.

He played 10 minutes stoppage time included. Fabregas made no mistakes to learn from.

 

Conte makes terrible substitutions with horrible timing. He also clearly has an issue with Fabregas.

[drog.ba 239]

Issue is that he can't run

He is not fast,but he actually runs a lot . He has qualities we need in our starting line up.That is why Mourinho brought him here because he saw  that there was zero creativity on our starting eleven. Without him,we have the same problem we had in 2014 and that was that we did not create enough chances.

Glad his PR team is out in full force again and always providing a message for the fans. How could i survive the day without it, don't know. Looks so false to me...Fabregas (others too) cost Chelsea so many games in the past, the first few months were outstanding then never the same. Don't get me even started on last season. I really appreciate Conte's approach to remove the Gooner blood from the team. Nothing personal, but enough is enough.

We're conceding for fun without him in the team & when the alternative is Matic it matters little.

Don't really see the problem with so called 'Gooner blood'....we've had plenty of it with before with Ashley Cole and Anelka. Didn't fare too bad....I'm having more issues with the so called 'blue blood' that's out there playing right now.

[robsblubot 3,504]

The problem with Fabregas isn't only that he can't run; as stated above matic is slow too. However, Fabregas is slow and weak, and can't tackle, and can't win aerial duels, and has little work rate and tires easily, and on occasion, lacks concentration. Reminds me a lot of Mata.

It is quite evident that Fabregas' deficiencies lie in mental and physical areas, not technical. It's the manager's prerogative to be willing to deal with a player of such characteristics or not. He may change his mind or not, but I personally don't feel not playing fabregas is something crazy.
