Sorry mate, but that's bollocks. There is no comparison between them and that is not knocking fabregas. Yaya is a class apart.chris85mcfc said:NipHolmes said: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

...and I'm pretty sure that Wenger wouldn't be bitter about that at all, and certainly wouldn't mention it in passing in a press conference!I'm no cynic said:Not read the whole thread, but he'd count as home grown which may be a reason for him in itself.
It's not worth comparing players to Yaya, he's a bit of a one off. Fabregas is an excellent player though and at 27 should be just coming into his prime. I really hope we are in for him and if we can get anywhere near a similar amount for Yaya who is 4 years older I think that would be decent business.totallywired said:Sorry mate, but that's bollocks.
