Cesc Fabregas signs for Chelsea (page 190)

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Personally speaking I reckon he will be signed and Yaya will be sold. The problem is aligning the two without being burned in transactions. Sell too low, buy to high.

Yaya to PSG will happen but after WC imo

Would it be a travesty if we bought Fabregas for say 35m and were low balled by PSG for Yaya for say 25m? I'd still say that was a fairly good deal considering the other advantages that this deal gives us in terms of the home grown quota

The footballing factor is that Fabregas gives you a performance every single week, it wouldn't be the storming runs and match winning performances that Yaya gives us (on occasions) but in terms of consistently good performances, id have Fabregas in for Yaya every day of the week

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Not sure why Chelsea would want him they have probably the most Midfielders in the top teams. They need 2 strikers and 2 Defenders.

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Good player and can only improve whoever he signs for. For that reason alone I would take him.

Chelsea could be the club Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas (27) will join this summer. He would replace Lampard. A deal is close. [md]

Would make sense

It would make sense in so far as Abramovich thinking that buying every available attacking midfielder in the world will turn Chelsea into Barcelona. Won't make much sense letting him play under Mourinho, nor as a player like Fabregas would I want to even contemplate such an idea. We're suited down to the ground for how Fabregas plays football.

Mancini out if we aren't even interested....

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Sorry to make a childish and thread-derailing point, but neutrals calling fabregas 'cesc' irritates me far more than it should.

Why? I'm struggling to remember a time when he wasn't referred to as Cesc, by either the media or football fans generally. I didn't even know his ''proper'' name; I thought it was Francesco. Googled it to find out it's actually Francesc.

Re: Cesc Fabregas

When I think of Mourinho type players, Fabregas is pretty far down the list.

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Think were still on for this deal wouldnt suprise me if we av agreed but leave the anouncement till after world cup so we dont get cherry picked by other clubs for our players who are lookin to move n due to ffp.

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Sky are the latest media outlet to say we aren't interested in Fabregas, can't see all these stories as being incorrect. Someone is feeding them the info.

Could see in at Chelsea especially if Hazard moves.

Re: Cesc Fabregas

Chelsea will want to replace Lampard, they seem to be shopping Oscar around according to the press & also questions of Hazard so would make sense for them. Fabregas also being HG will help them no end too. If we do bring in another attacking mid I think Pellers would prefer to spend the money on Isco.

Pretty sure all our purchases will be defensive ones this season, if we can keep hold of all our attacking players.
