Your problem will be getting the ball to them, especially if Fabregas leaves

doubtful seen as we are asking for a certain amount for him, and barca are offering a ridiculos small amount for him. not our problem if they are in crippling debt and cant afford to run a hot dog stand.

Arsenal should put Fabregas out of his misery and accept the £35m Barcelona is offering for him.

Talking about offering ridiculous amounts, Arsene Wenger is the worst offender. He wouldn't budge over his piddly £2m offer for Mark Schwarzer last year and missed out on a decent stopper who would have proved invaluable last season. Now he's doing the same thing over Phil Jagielka. He expects top dollar for his players but only offers a pittance when he wants to sign someone.

dont disagree with you, as the website says fabregas is not interested and seems distant at training and club functions.

But IMO i think fabregas is worth more then what barca are offering tho. More like the 50 million that wenger has asked for. Not 35 million. Im sure if fabregas was at Man utd or chelsea etc they would ask for this also.

Like C Ronaldo......ridiculos amount of money 150 million wasnt it??....and Real madrid come to the party... so it can be done

Barca is nearly broke though!!!
They wont spend a cent more than they have to.
They would be prepared to wait till his contract runs out and take him for free

fabregas signed a 8 year contract in 2006 from memory so they might be waiting for a while if they try doing that.

but again....its not Arsenals fault that they are broke

Correct Bully. If it was Madrid who was after him he would be gone already. Barca tend to negotiate and bargain where as Real Madrid just get them no matter the cost. Good on Arsenal for holding out

Now obviously, I'd love to see Cesc off to Barca, buuuuuut....

Surely this is tapping up of the highest order by Barca. It's been how long of trying to turn Cesc's head and have peers lure him back, encouraging him to hand in a transfer request.

Ordinary stuff, but couldn't happen to a nicer bunch :lol: :lol: :lol:

Go on Cesc, do it!!!

Cesc ruled out for trip to St James park this weekend. Still recovering over injuries and not fit enough but, i think its more to do with the Champ league qualy which is on the 16th as if Cesc plays in that match he cant play for Barca if he does move in the Champ league :D

According to Arsenal ITK, Cesc is chucking the toys out of the pram ala Berbasulk and refusing to play to force a move to Barca.
