I think, and I probably echo the views of many a Gooner on this, that I am happy that Fabregas has gone but angry at the club for not having found a suitable replacement in time. Angry at the club for grooming a youngster who was evidently going to join Barcelona. Angry at the club for builiding a team around a player who was never going to have that extra edge to succeed in the Premiership and become a title-winning captain. Angry at the club for agreeing a deal with the C*ntalans that they had wanted at the beginning of the summer, but we'd procrastinated over and in the end succumbed to.

I am angry this morning. I honestly couldn't give a sh!t as far as Fabregas is concerned. He's hardly a legend, and nor is he in the same ilk of lieable players who hadn't actually won anything with Arsenal but are still held in great esteem.

It's pretty safe to say that the next time he's at the Emirates, he'd be roundly booed.
