Buy back Cesc Fabregas, or let Man Utd buy him?

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.

I'm sure that is what you think. Did you think the same thing about RVJC? The player we nurtured through 7 seasons of sitting on his arse in a treatment room, the player that delivered fuck all (when compared to his wage) for 7 seasons, then had ONE great season and promptly cashed it in? Did you think he had honour? Be honest. I'd say you did. I know I did, and that's why his betrayal is all the worse; the cúnt owed us big time. :|

Fabregas always talked a good game, but really isn't any different from any other player in modern football. I don't think that he is a Gooner like we are and never will be, so a move to Manchester United (although probably not going to happen regardless) isn't so far fetched. It is really all down to the amount of dosh on offer and nothing more than that.

Exactly. I'm sure Cesc does have a soft spot in his heart for The Arsenal. But not to the extent that he'd let it interfere with his career. Let's not forget that Cesc also manuevered and wrangled a move away from his supposedly beloved Arsenal. How long had he left on his contract? 3 years? Hardly the actions of a man that felt his first loyalty should be to Arsenal is it?

you're right I did
I hope I'm right to expect more of Cesc

Rather tenuous but, Cesc endorses Puma, and they might be making our new kit.

Just saying. :oops:

Just a thought, but Cesc going to Man Utd is a growing possibility.
He could be tempted by the thought of being in the same side as Van Persie.
I am now virtually expecting Cesc to announce he will go there.

TBh, I think Cesc has had the time now to "rinse" The Arsenal out of him. He's at the biggest club in the world, and it's not going great for him. Gone ok, but not great, but still more successful than his time at Arsenal. The Manure filthy crunts can offer him the probability of sustained success and a huge wage.

It comes down to what really motivates him. Stay at The Whores and fight for his place and maybe become a true legend at his home club? But is their time as the big dogs now coming to an end? Will there ever be a generation of players there again like Messi, Xavi, Iniesta etc? Does Cesc go for the big money at somewhere like The Filth? Go for the probability / possibility of sustained success?

Ferguson leaving would probably impact on the last two. I can't see him leaving the Whores but wouldn't be surprised at all if he did go to Manure or the chavs. Modern football is all about money first, glory second and fuck loyalty. :|
I'm just gonna stand back and wait for the fall out when Wilshere is gone within two seasons. Mother fuckers gonna do their nut.

If he goes to utd he is going to get booed so badly and he deserves it. IMO it will be equivalent to Cashley hole moving to the Chavs.

I think you guys are getting a bit too hysterical, do you honestly think he is sad at Barcelona? I fail to see how Barca are going to ship him out when there are no real replacements for xavi. They'll have to accept that their midfield will have a different look, and perhaps not as good in possession without Xavi, Cesc is along with Alcantra and iniesta are still the best options.

If Cesc were to leave he'd have a pick of clubs, unless our clause in his contract is true. But he'll stay at Barca and win many trophies there. I know Moyes like Cesc, but I doubt Cesc has got too much respect for him :-P , although i'm sure he knows utd will always be a force.

His words, or lack thereof, whilst club captain and being courted by Barca were disgraceful. He sat stum even though he knew what he wanted - he should have done the noble thing, resigned as captain and put his hand up for a transfer and done that at the end of the season instead of stringing out the process and putting a kybosh to recruitment and the new seaon. Got to United with Van Persie and the other twats and Barca can give us our share and piss off.
I can't fathom why people want players that regard this club as a fall back position - either want to play for the club or piss off. You can never truly 'go back' anyway.

He can't be sad - it's in his DNA. He shafted us the day he let them put that Barca shirt on him and smiled.

To be honest, i couldnt hate fabregas even if he went to man united. Dissiapointed yes, but the guy always wore his heart on his sleeve for us....i hate rvp, cole, adebayor, nasri etc. But for some reason i couldn't hate cesc.

Anyway.....who knew Fabregas or Na$ri 4 years ago???

Where's that banner, displayed so proudly on that glorious day in the club's history supervised by the Coach of the Decade?

Cesc moving to UTD would be worse than RVP because we gave permission for Fab to leave on the pretense of him rejoining his childhood club. For him to move to UTD would be a betrayal of this agreement.

Was not aware of any such agreement.
Cesc wanted to go to Barcelona, and in doing so we were given a lot of money which pleased our chairman.
