    Barcelona open Fabregas talks

    Seems they are looking to get him in and Hill-Wood if those quotes are accurate is starting to pave the way for the move!



    Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has confirmed Barcelona have made initial contact regarding a transfer for Cesc Fabregas, but no formal offer has yet been tabled by the Spanish and European champions

    Fabregas, a graduate of Barcelona's La Masia academy, is a long-term target for Pep Guardiola's side and recently admitted he was unaware of what his future holds now the transfer window is open.

    Though Barca president Sandro Rosell is adamant the club will not pay "over the top" for the midfielder, it is believed he is a prime target for the club, along with Udinese's Alexis Sanchez and Villarreal's Giuseppe Rossi.

    Arsenal are determined to hold onto their influential captain but Hill-Wood also admits he would not blame Fabregas for wanting to return to Catalunya.

    “Yes, they have spoken to us about Cesc," Hill-Wood told the Sunday Mirror. "They have been in touch. But so far they have not made a bid and we do not want to let him go.

    “But he comes from Barcelona so it is understandable if he wanted to go back. However, they have not made an offer so far.”

    Barcelona with Fabregas and Sanchez are ridiculous. I can't even say they will improve because both of them won't get in the line up. They will be very deep though.

      Can't help feeling that this might benefit arsenal more than Barca.

        It would depend what (if anything ) Wenger does with the money
        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

          It will be a really good move for both fabregas and Barca. He has stagnated and needs to be playing at a higher level if he wants to become one of the worlds best players.

            He won't get in the team though.

              Probably not. Maybe they will play him instead of Busquets.

                If Cesc joins, Mascherano the other way as part of the deal? He'd be a brilliant signing for them. they need leaders. Wish he'd come back to us, rather him than Gago.

                  He will. The players are so versatile that it will be easy for them to leave a different player out each game. They have got plenty of games to play and these days Iniesta and Xavi are always picking up knocks. If Pedro, Messi or Villa have a slight knock then can just push Iniesta forward and slot Fabregas into his position.

                  I think it will be a good move for Arsenal because Fabregas clearly doesnt want to be there anymore and last season he was just a distraction

                    Busquets over Cesc every time for me.

                      Cesc could be the long term replacement for Xavi? Although Xavi could keep playing until he's in his late thirties.

                        Xavi will be 32 in January. Fabregas is his natural replacement and it's the perfect time to start bedding him into the squad.



                        EDIT: I agree with Daniel
                        .
                        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



                        May the Lord bless this post.

                          He'll obviously get some playing time, being rotated in at times, but he won't get in their strongest side.

                            Also a fair point although I reckon Xavi will be able to keep going - at this level - until he's about 36.

                            So Cesc might have a long wait.

                              I doubt that he will play on until he is 36. I can see him retire in two years time or maybe even before that.

                              He hasn't been fit for years and is playing with pain in every game. Nothing he can do about it as long as he is playing.
