You lot seem to think that we don't have money.We do and we've had it since 2005 when wenger attemtped to spend more than 50M pounds in the summer for robinho,baptista and hleb.Only hleb came as robinho and baptista joined madrid at the end but wenger,their agents and even brazilian players like gilberto had confirmed that we were very serious about buying them.
We don't need to sell cesc but obviously given the circumstances we might sell but only for an offer which is acceptable. What we have now is built around him and he is also very very special. Hence its going to take something mammoth to get him.
The key here is that unlike cristiano fabregas is not agitating and throwing his toys out of the pram. He knows that he owes wenger and arsenal at least that much that we can profit the maximum from his sale should he leave the club.
This transfer despite all the sky and newspaper crap is very unlikely.
Partly because apparently according to barca who are so desperate to get him value him less than benzema,david luiz,milner,di maria,dzeko. inferior league players who don't get his numbers even in a worse league.
Heck he's worth a few quid more than lescott thats what he is according to lac*nt
