    Something is wrong within the camp and people seem to think it's just indivdual cases, when there is more to it.
    You misunderstand me. Cesc is the ONLY player capable of playing that system, hence we miss him when he's not there. Get rid and start playing more direct, so that missing him through injury is nowhere near the damage it causes right now.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    I agree, we should look at the Torres situation. Torres, out, Suarez and Caroll in. Good business, and shows that no player is bigger than the club.

    Agreed, it makes no sense to lose a 20million player for nothing, sure we shouldn't be offering our assets to our rivals but in the case of the Nasri situation if he won't sign then we have to sell him now and replace him with quality.

    Nasri has completely got us by the balls and irrespective of if we win anything what's going to stop him signing a pre-contract in January with any top club that can easily double or either triple his wages?

    Been out of the loop for the past week, what's the deal with Nasri then? I heard we're keeping him in hope that he signs a new deal? Very risky and judging by the type of character he has shown himself up to be, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he fucked off on a bosman. He's already looked at other clubs, so what the hell makes Wenger think it will be different in January when he can talk to anyone he wants? I'm not comfortable with the situation at all tbh, sell him now or get him to sign a new deal, talk is cheap.

    This is a big gamble.

    I am really, really, hoping that this is some kind of strategy to drive his transfer fee up. Because keeping him will cost us £20M that we don't have, and in resturn we'll get a disillusioned player who doesn't want to play for us. Madness.

    I have no doubts that he'll perform to his post February level.

    Look at it this way, the last time someone was doing this, he played like a mentalist (the good kind) for most of the season so even if he doesn't stay we'll probably get some decent performances. I'm pretty sure he's staying as something as a stop-gap, if he signs a new contract then great but until then we have Ramsey/Wilshere developing in the middle and guys who can do his job outwide coming into the squad so even if he doesn't stick around he keeps us going while we have something of a mini transition (the kind where you move on rather than the staying in 4th kind) losing Cesc.

    It's not perfect but it's probably the best use we can get out of him if people want to win something next season.

    In my view Fabregas staying would be nothing short of an unmitigated disaster, he's clearly not committed to us and for the captain of the side to not be committed to us is perfectly absurd, I think the best thing to do would be to sell him if Barcelona offer us 35 million and then we can spend money strengthening in vital areas if the board are reluctant to spend cash as things stand.
