Cesc Fàbregas

[Egert]

Looking forward to him leaving, doesn't belong here.

Adios.

Look forward Herrera/Rakitic replacing him.

 

[Devils]

Look forward Herrera/Rakitic replacing him.

If either of those two can play the entire season and not just he first half, I will welcome them with open arms.

 

[Semi-Neutral]

But they're so much worse

 

[NotInHere]

True, Koke or Kroos, if not, keep Cesc

 

[xavi_the_Boss]

But they're so much worse

Are they?

 

[Semi-Neutral]

Easily, Rafinha will be their level in a few years, while Cesc is one of the best midfielders in the world

 

[linetty]

But they're so much worse

Because they play at smaller clubs. I'm sure Rakitić wouldn't be worse than Cesc if he came here. Not sure about Herrera though.

The whole team has been poorer in the second half of the season the past three years.

As this argument is based on stats how does Cesc compare to Xavi/Iniesta in second half of season past three seasons. How does he even compare to the wide players - Sanchez, Pedro Neymar etc.

It is lazy to suggest Cesc just become poor in second half of season.

It's easy Cesc to Arsenal,Ozil to Bayer and Thiago back home.

sport is saying arsenal will get 50% of any amount that exceeds 36mi for Cesc. If Cesc is sold for 40m, Barça gets 38m, arsenal 2m. I hope this clause was just for the 2 1st year. Imagine selling him for 50m, and getting only 43m. Barça deals... jesus.

That's not the end of the world.

It's bad, anyway. 7m is a good amount, that could be used to something else. If he'd go for 50m, ofc.

 

[JamDav1982]

That type of deal helped them get him for much cheaper than other clubs would have payed.

The club wont lose out on anything as they got him cheaper from Arsenal for those type of clauses.

 

[Hamzah]

I don't mind selling him but there is no obvious replacement out there. If we're not getting at least an equally good player that can be more of a game controller then what's the point?

Who knows? Better ask zubi and barto. To get an inferior player really makes no sense. Unless Lucho considers Rafinha as his replacement, and the money is to buy the cb or a fwr.
