Guys here's the facts. In a transfer market where carrol goes for 35M,Dzeko for 28M and Torres for 50M. Cesc is not goin anywhere for 35M. In fact we rejected their opening bid of that around that much without even giving room for negotiations because we considered it too low. Why is cesc so valuable. Here are the facts-
Cesc just turned 24 and he is the 3rd highest league assister in premiership history already. His killer pass per games are unparalleled.
Over the last 5 seasons nobody in any major league in europe has more assists than Cesc.
Fabregas has added goals to his game over the last few seasons and has a better rate than the likes of sneijder,iniesta and xavi in major leagues.
Already racked up in excess of 60 champions league matches his experience for his age is vast.
Also has nearly 60 caps for spain despite some thinking that he hasn't played that much for them.
Played in every major final he can play-Euro,World Cup,Champions League,Fa Cup and Carling Cup
Some say he had a poor season. Well it wasn't upto his usual standards but he still got 9 goals and 17 assists.
Cesc will get a proper rest after 4 seasons. He's played the 07-08 season then the euros followed by 08-09 season then the confed cup then the 09-10 season after which the world cup then this season. He is exhausted right now. After the break he gets he'll be back to his best.
This is what you are paying for and i hope he goes to you but 35m will be rejected without consideration. Unfortunately i think the only teams he will consider are Barcelona and AC milan.
