Cesc Fàbregas

[ZOS 580]

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 .

he will be able to do this 70% of the time in the season, I believe... especially since we'll have such a bully as Costa in opposition box creating havoc, surely we won't be pressed as much as we did this season

[The only place to be 11,313]

'll say it now....Fabregas is exactly the type of player that Torres needs. Those long, accurate balls over the top for him to run onto are what made his reputation at Liverpool.

Costa and Lukaku can also thrive on those types of balls as well. It will be interesting to see the impact it has on Oscar who won't have to drop so deep and can play almost as a second striker. Schurrle in that position in what would essentially be a 442 (or 4411 if we're being pedantic) when we're attacking is mouthwatering too. Tactical versatility.

Fabregas: "It's always difficult playing Chelsea. When I was at Arsenal, we attack, attack, attack... and then Drogba scores!

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

they also want clasie , and perez from benfica

Makes sense. LVG built the Dutch team around Strootman before he got injured so this is very understandable.

What is this? From where?

What doesn't make sense is that he can play CL with Roma next season, and he fits perfectly in that team.

True, but Strootman basically loves LVG and vice versa, and could go to United just because of that.

right before the CL final semifinal in 2012 remember this quote came up, definitely legit !

Is Fab still going to United then?

Francesc Fabregas to Chelsea is a done deal. Second signing of the summer. #CFC

where you see pique and del bosque laugh, apparently its right after del bosque says something like "you are going to make the barca president mad by telling me that"

[Liquidator 5,176]

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

Hacking dead people's phones among other things...

Torres: "Cesc would be a good signing? Great players are always great signings. He's a type of player #CFC don't have now" (via @barcastuff)

Richard Keys doesn't know anything. He's just a sexist pig, with a big chin.

he gave a PC before the chelsea-barca semi in 2012. thats where he said it,

[The Skipper 20,593]

Don't know if it's been posted already but apparently Torres said this:

"He is a kind of player that Chelsea don't have at the moment. Great players are always great signings. We know him well, he was one of the best players in the Premier League while playing for Arsenal and is a player who brings a lot to the team," Torres said in an interview with Movistar.

"He is a player who brings ball control and goals. If he feels important, if he feels like a leader he proved at Arsenal that can lead a squad."
