Fabregas

[Blueband Brother]

So in addition to Milner, Barry, Garcia, Nasri, Silva, Yaya Toure, Rodwell, Razak and Sinclair we're buying Isco and Fabregas?

There's only Silva and Yaya in the same class as Cesc and Isco though...

Isco is a good prospect but hold your horses in comparing him to yaya and silva just yet.

Only way we buy two central MFs (Fernandinho and Fabregas or Thiago) is if BOTH Barry and Garcia go IMO (or Garcia becomes a centre-back). Otherwise I reckon it'll be Fernandinho and that's it, with the other midfielder(s) being attacking ones (Isco, Navas) where we really do lack depth since Sinclair never plays.

If we are going to have 4-3-3 as our primary formation we could feasibly shift Nasri in order to bring in Cesc or Thiago to be fair.

I don't mean it like that, more that Isco is much better than the rest of the players listed.

What's his relationships with our respective ex arsenal players like? Could be a big factor?

Yes, please.

x2. With a cherry on the top.

would rather have thiago every day of the week, at least 10mill less and younger with more potential.

Not sure on that one. Very good friends with Silva though.

I don't think he'll leave, personally.

If Barca sell Fabregas AND Thiago, who will succeed Xavi? Surely it's either/or?

 

[Bilboblue]

I seem to recall Fabregas saying he would NEVER be tempted by City's money.

I certainly recall Clichy saying the same.. that's what happens while you are arsenal player - only class is acceptable, not money. Until someone offer you some.
