Arsene Wenger is due to meet Ba*ca president Sandro Rosell today according to a TV station in France (via – Arseblog), the station he has been commentating for all summer. It is said that the boss will tell Rosell in no uncertain terms where to get off after the Spanish club have treated his club with such arrogance and contempt over the past couple of months – possibly even years. Wenger is determined not to sell him and rightly so, Cesc signed that contract knowing the length of it and has been paid handsomely for that. Good.
We know how stubborn he can be, we have seen it with our very eyes in the transfer market but in this case – I love the stubborness. There can’t be a more arrogant club in the world than Barcelona – at least United have reason to be arrogant – City just flutter their cash and the players come running but they at least have a little respect. Madrid are the better of the two Spanish evils, not by much though. They don’t seem as arrogant as they once were.
No team I have ever known in the past has bleated on about a player they don’t have in the way Xavi, Puyol, Pique, Messi et. at. have about our captain. Yes, Cesc could have ended this all with one statement and his silence has spoke volumes but he signed that document – its not Arsenal’s fault.
The way Arsenal have dealt with Barcelona makes me proud. The class in the carefully worded statement they released was something we have gotten used to now – we do set an example as to how teams should deal with transfers.

i fink baca shuld jst go & die wv dia 4ken money. infact, they dnt evn has d money, they paid dia playrs & spanish media to be talking nonsence abt our FABREPASS, i love d way wenger is dealing wv them dis time arround bcos silence is d best answer 4 a fool like baca. y must they be using dt stupid style to tap up our players every now & then. IN ASENE WE TRUST.
its not entirely xavi’s, messi’s etc fault. The media, mainly spanish, keep asking them about the possibility of cesc joining barca. And they just tell the truth, they would love to have him.
Barca shld learn a lesson.Thy sld actually give up.i wish wenger cld mentain his ward.Fab sld nt leave ars.at this time. we need him.
Fab is the person we can not afford to loose at this time.Wenger must not accept any thing like barca’s money.
ofc its not the players fault, they just play the game. they could have shut up if they wanted but they all know cesc is class and they are his mates so they want him to join barca.
But as the author points out, he signed a deal and got the chance here. he can love barca, his heart can be at barca, he can dream of barca but he plays for Arsenal. We pay him and he gives his all for us unless Wenger wants it different. This is not down to barca or cesc as alot of people think. its purly down to arsenal.
people coudl argue we should let him go “cos hes heart is not init” until they get blue in their faces. I dont care.
Frankly i dont care where cescs heart is, aslong as he can do the job for us and bring us some trophies!
Love barca, live arsenal.
Roll on facing Barcelona again in the Champions’ League.
Fiberglass should put all his big ideas of a possible transfer aside and think on focusing on Arsenal and end our trophy less drought. I am even surprised he still has not got it! If he gets to Barca he’s gonna be warming the bench we need him more than Barca so all those stubborn attitude aside and think of a good season with the gunners mate!! Next press conference declare your legions mate and don’t say your not sure about your future, Gunners for life!!
Barca shuld go to hell
Barca hv embarras themselves n hv lost their reputation in this Cesc case. They shld go to hell 4 all I care.
“wenger tells barca he won’t sell” no shit Sherlock!!
Wenger should be saying go home and save some money because you have none and make us feel awfully superior.Your club has no class,respect or money.You are indeed paupers………………..but hey keep dreaming.
@reece ok, agreed media asks Barca players about Cesc but there is a way to deal with it if you wish and that has been shown by none other than Coach Pep..he simply refused to comment on the situation..why can’t those guys do it?
why dont the one person who this whole issue is about (cesc), come out publicly and say what is on his mind. if he wants to leave or stay,then our club can do what it needs to do,to move forward. not the w*****s at barca.
DNA my arse, what the fuck has barca ever done for cesc. his blood is RED OF ARSENAL.
Fabregas has come out and said what is on his mind he said “all i am thinking about is winning the world cup for spain” It’s everyone else that is making this an issue. Now he has won the world cup, he will tell Wenger again he wants to leave, Wenger will say then you will have to put in a transfer request, i doubt he wiull do that as he will lose all his bonus and loyalty rights so that could then be the end of it. If however, he puts in a written transfer request the club will then either accept or decline it, my guess is then they will accept it a set the price. That is how Arsenal work and it has stood us in good stead for many years and will for many more. We have lost better and more important players than Cesc but still we compete at the highest level.
Arite heres a thought..maybe the reason cesc never said anything is the same as why arsenal never said anything (exept that impressive little letter saying hes not for sale). The one common denominator in this whole transfer saga is that cesc and arsenal never really said anything about his future…just a thought
Before the World Cup Barca couldn’t afford Fabregas….since Spains victory over Holland his price has just increased by £10 million. Ha ha!!!
I like wenger decision. Gooners 4 life
