Cesc to return?

[LeftfootlegendGooner]

I thought we sold Cesc for £35 million.....

Just googled it. It was £35m, my mistake.

Isn't there a clause in the contract that we get a percentage of any future sale ?
Thought there was a buy back clause as well that we negotiated in the deal ?

If either of the above are true (could all be ) then we should be able to get him back for a good deal less than what we sold him for (doubt that it has all been paid yet by Barca in anycase)

ahh poor cesc, all not going well in barca the same cesc who had so many hamstring injuries the last year at arsenal and none since, fucked off to a grand prix while the team he was captain of was playing and forced a transfer , yeah poor cesc .

This ^

I don't want him back if I'm honest.

Forcing his sale, not stopping or apologising to us for the actions of the Barcelona players & Pepe fucking Reina for pulling a Barcelona shirt on him and for all the ''Cesc wants to be here'' shit!

Will also never forgive him for throwing the Spurs game at the Emirates when they won 3-2. WHY did he handball it? There was no need at all!

He got what he wanted and if its not working out then boo fucking hoo.

Quality player, also a dick.

Throwing the game?

[Arsenal Till I Die]

Throwing the game?

Yes, he threw the game for the team.

We were 2-1 up, still in control and looked likely to grab a third then the silly tit gave away a free kick *I beleive was him* then when Van der Vaart takes the kick he then, for no reason at all sticks his hand out to stop the ball. From then on he played awful throughout the match, giving the ball away, commiting silly fouls also killing the buzz we had.

It was fucking stupid in any game but against thee Spuds WHY would you go all out to smack the ball with your hand right in front of the ref?

Yeah, was very stupid (remember him getting away with the same last minute v Liverpool around that time too), it's just "throwing the game" is synonymous with match-fixing etc.

No doubt with a down payment of £1m and the rest paid in the equivalent value in conkers over the next 107 years

Threw the game?? i.e. match fixing? - surely that's a ridiculous accusation, isn't it?

People make mistakes all the time; doesn't necessarily mean they're guilty of match fixing - you'll be accusing Sagna of match fixing against ManUre next...

[highburyJD]

insane accusation
would love Cesc back, because he's very good at football

Yeah, I see the confusion I just meant he threw the lead away by being a wanker.

I understand the confusion caused by my comment but if you had actually decided to read my whole post you would see why I said what I had said, never at all claimed he was paid to do so or what not.

I don't get why people often highlight one part of someones argument and ignore the rest just to make a comment.

I highlighted the key part. I'm not responsible for what you post. You elected to use the phrase "threw the match". If you didn't mean it, don't say it?

Cesc is never coming back sadly
