Pretty much. All of that is fact.
Anyone dare dispute it?
Didn't think so
This is all ridiculous.
He wasn't a great captain but that doesn't mean he isn't a good player. We didn't win anything but one player isn't solely responsible for the success or failure of a team. If Usain Bolt was in a 4x100 with GB, Maccy and me (sorry fellas) you wouldn't chastise him for the failure of the team as a whole.
As for him being a 'flop', he's playing for one of the best club teams in the world and the Spanish have been the best national side in the world. He might not have shone at that level but we are nowhere near that level, he could clearly do a job for us.
All that said, he's clearly not going to join us so I don't know why I bothered to write all that really.
There two Cesc Fabregas'. The one that played for us before 2009. He was the gay pass master who used to rack up about 7 million assists and everyone loved him because he got them fantasy football points. But he was a little bitch who had no balls. And then there was 2009-2011 Cesc. This Cesc was a selfish, ****y, dickhead who knew he was about 7 million times better than our other players and so did all the work himself. He used to kick the shit out of the quicker opponents (and let's face it, everyone's quicker than him) and he used to turn referees in our favour by being a superb whiny shithead.
I would love to have 2009-2011 Cesc back to show the talented but raw British core how to get the job done.
If there's any truth to this they've played it very well this window. Having completely unrealistic fallbacks in Rooney and Suarez has allowed them to skilfully dispense with the achievable signings. Clever stuff - they've had lots of practise of course. It must have been a hard task getting the balance right this year, given the £70mill war chest bollocks. Rooney was borderline, and incredibly unrealistic target but with a tiny fragment of outlandish possibility. Ronaldo, for example, would have been ludicrous even for us. The Suarez ploy has been excellent though.Evening Standard: Arsenal improve on £30m offer to land Liverpool's Luis Suarez but moves for Fellaini, Higuain and Cesar look set to fail.
And the Fabregas thing, genius. Charge £30mill, buy him back for £25mill, nothing actually changes hands I guess as Barca won't have paid us yet. That whole deal could be done on the books for a £5mill profit. When you add in the deadwood that's been dropped this could be a bumper window. If he comes we profit, if he doesn't we profit. It would be perfectly safe to sign him so I see this one as the most likely at, say, a 1% chance of being done - compared to the others which have a dramatically lower possibility.
It all stems from knowing just how much to underbid by. You need to be in the ballpark but make it just a little under. Get it wrong and the other club might suddenly agree. So kudos to our crack transfer sabotage team, nobody does it better.

He wound Phil Brown up more than any other player. That alone makes Cesc a legend.

Back to usual dismissive self I see.
Anyway, are you saying he had a shit team around him (no dis to you Maccy and GB, blame Letters for this most dreadful anology)? I beg to differ, though, I might agree he's not solely to be blamed for the commencement of our failed period, where he led a decent team that was built around him and everything pretty much went through him.
I don't know about you and others who might have lost hope/ambition, but the level at which you hold Barca is the level at which I aspire my club to be. We weren't far off some years ago, and it's no surprise that we started to take a step down after we tried to make a player who wasn't good enough (you've pretty much admitted he's not good enough to play or shine at the top level) the hub of our team. As I said, I want my club team to regarded as one of the best in the world again, and Cesc doing a job for us won't get us there. We already have our fair share of "do a job" players a la Arteta, Ramsey, Giroud, etc.
It would be a retrograde move bringing the flop back here.
FFS! Now Bendtner is not going to Frankfurt, their sportsdirector has just made a statement where he thanks Arsene Wenger for the good dialog, but in the end Bendtner apperently is asking for to much money, even when arsenal are offering to pay some of his salary...
This guy must be the biggest idiot in the history of football and im afraid he wants to run down his contract and just live the lazy life and training with the youth team.
No one to blame but Arsenal for giving him so much money
The guy is a fucking idiot.
