As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
maybe you lot should start a black scarf campaign if fabregas looks like staying
you could have a please go to barcelona petition
start a facebook group telling cesc the only way he'll win anything is by leaving for camp nou immediately
a good start to your protest could be to stop whining on websites like pathetic bitches
when Brady won the FA cup it was a major trophy
it isn't now
from highlights looked a great player but before my time
so wouldn't make my greatest XI
(gonna start picking oldtimers who I didnt see play the 30s boys would be ahead of chippy)
I think it could be a very bad career move to. Barca have reached their peak and are on their way down. Them and Real usually take turns and with Mourinho (whatever we might think about him he wins titles) I'm pretty sure Real are gonna go on and dominate in Spain now for a couple of years. Cesc would be much better off waiting for aother 3 or 4 seasons, try to win a title or two with The Aresnal and then go back and help Barca overtke Real again.

You might be right - except that unless something changes dramatically he'll have a far better chance to accomplish that at Barca even if you're correct, as may well be true about Mourinho's impact at Real.
That just brings it back to us and whether we have the ambition to keep top players like Cesc now, and seeing this summer start off like the last several - an early signing to gee us up and get the ST renewals fling in - then nothing, I'm not overwhelmed with confidence on that and wouldn't be if were Cesc either unfortunately.
Reading between the lines of the Barca president's latest statement, it looks like they are quite happy to wait until next season for Cesc's signature.
Whether that is good news or not I don't know, as we are only delaying the inevitible.
What we should remember is that Cesc was not convinced to stay by promises of improvements in the squad, so if that's the case I think he could return very disheartened from the world cup.
I havent read all the posts, the original post is a joke i hope. Cesc will go down as a ledgend, anyone who doesn't agree with him leaving is being stupid. He could stay here playing for us, winning nothing, being kicked around by Stokes and Boltons, or he could be winning titles, getting to finals and playing with the best players in the world.
