They had the league wrapped up last year before his disappearing act. Wouldn't really expect that contribution to get to anybody.

But now?

Fuck Fabregas. He's a chav now, and he will win the PL with them (something he didn't manage with us) and God knows what else. He could give two shits about The Arsenal. In the long term he may well even become a chav legend and end up being a "Chelsea man", so you best all get the fuck over it. :roll:

Except for when we play the chavscum - Then it's "Open Season" and let the cuntt have it both barrels (and a bag of lime! :wink: ) :barscarf:

Sounds good to me, I hope he gets decked.

Sorry Cesc is an Arsenal legend and I will always applaud him.

Or are we going down the no class (Chavs) route?

I suppose it's a matter of opinion of course. And the definition of what a legend is is always debatable. You have to consider a combination of things like success, loyalty, impact upon the game. For me Cesc isn't an Arsenal legend. He won what one FA Cup in his years with us? So not a legend based on success. Then held the club to ransom to force the move he wanted to the Whores? That last bit alone would exclude him in my opinion, especially if not backed up by having won us a fuckload of trophies.

For me he is just a very good player that once played for us and is now playing for a despicable club owned managed and supported by cúnts.

Do I think we should have re-signed him? Absolutely. He is a fantastic player.

But he is not an Arsenal legend for me. I wouldn't speak of him in the same breath as Bergkamp, Henry, Vieira, Seaman, Adams, Brady, Rice, Rocky. And yes I know Vieira and Henry pushed for moves (like Cesc) but on the back of having won so much for us. And yes I know Brady won only one FA Cup with us (like Cesc) but Brady was the stand out player of his generation and at Arsenal when we had proper fuck all real flair players. Christ there were games in the 70's when the only proper footballer on the pitch was Brady.

Cesc is a chav now. Let it go lads. :(

I've let it go for the most part but let's not forget it was Wenger's fault Fabregas became a chav. I still can't comprehend why Wenger refused to bring him back after having first refusal on him due to the fact that it would've "killed" a real chav in Wilshere.

Oh absolutely. Cesc made motions in the media about Arsenal and Wenger refused to re-sign him. I personally think it was Wenger's worst mistake in his time with us. But that doesn't change the fact he is now a chav player and will enjoy the success he has there and will become (possibly) a chav legend.

Wenger's right for once. Cesc shouldn't be booed. I know we've discussed this before and we've all got our opinions but I'll always remember him as a great player who gave me some great memories and gave the club a lot.
This talk of him holding the club to ransom? Might be true might not, who knows. All we know is that his hometown club wanted him and he wanted to play for them. I defy anyone to say they could have turned such a situation down.
Boo the whole team, every fucking one of their 11 but if he gets it on his own then it's out of order.
Me? I'll applaud his name and then after that he's just one of their players who I'll hate for 90 mins cos I hate those wankers with a passion.
Altogether now, 'John Terry, your family is scum. Your family is scum.........'

I really don't think it's his decision to join Barca that is the main gripe with fans... I'm almost certain it'll be the fact he'll be playing on Sunday in a Chelsea shirt. The club he's decided to give the best years of his career.

After Arsene decided he couldn't find room for a world class player at our club :roll: . ( so why have the clause in the first place, which probably meant we lost out on a higher transfer fee ?)

Probably to sell the deal to us - so we would kid ourselves into thinking he'd come back after his stint at Barca. Seeing him in their kit gets under my fucking skin.

I agree, move on but don't boo a player who gave a lot to AFC
