Part of me wants Arsenal to sell Fabregas to Real Madrid ... just for the humor of it.
They could try, but Cesc won't go there. It will be actually funny Real paying 40 mil for him and then have to trade disgruntled Cesc after a year. Kind of like what Arsenal will do next season for much less than 40 mil to Barca.
You really think Fab will be at his very best this season if he stays with Arsenal? His value will not be more than Barca's final offer which will be 40-45 million max. What Arsenal should do, hey barca to add a young player with that deal.
They will buy him for whatever Wenger says he's worth.
We'll see. Fab will eventually force Arsenal. Problem is Arsenal doesn't have the team to win the league... and if that continues star players will leave
Players want to leave all the time and dont becuase the team doesnt have to sell them (Drogba, Gerrard, etc. x 1000) ... even Arsenal waited to sell Viera.
This is nothing new.
That may very well be true but this is a diff. situation. Fab wants to go back to his home country and his home club. Whether Wenger likes it or not, Fab will go back to Barca now or in couple of years.
If Wenger was smart, he would have traded Fab for 35 mil and couple of good prospects from Barca and re-developed his squad. I like Arsenal in EPL and usually root for them except against Liverpool...and their current squad is not going to take them anywhere. They don't even look like qualifying for Champions League next year with Man City adding so many good players and Arsenal's captain is going to be disgruntled player.
