A Cescond Season for you, Fab

In recent times there have been transfer speculations that have lingered and lingered. I remember Owen Hargreaves to Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid, Jon Obi Mikel to Manchester United/Chelsea, etc for most of these rumours, papers write quotes and speculations linking player and club, agent, parent, etc. It is more like part of modern day football. Well, the one that hits me the most right now is our El Capito and his flirtations with Barcelona. 

Same Movement, Same Positioning, Barca DNA

Its the Barca DNA.

Every summer, the transfer market kicks off with Cesc - Barcelona rumours of course after being heightened in the course of the season by various write ups and quotes and make believes by either friends or club owners or Barcelona players or the inability of Arsenal to win a major trophy all these years.

We accept he was trained by Barcelona, we accept he was childhood friends with Messi and who else? Pique, Pep was his model and mentor and all that. No doubt and yes that he’s got a Barcelona DNA. Thank you very much. So how come you let such talent leave? In an Interview with television network Gol TV, Cesc had this to say of why he left Barca;

"At Barça, they used to renew your contract every year and there were players like Leo, Piqué and others who they really believed in.
I was average, not good, not bad. I was there but I wasn't one of those they expected to have a big future. They believed more in others than in me. So I decided that the best thing was to move, to change."

 How come you would not honour the club that brought him into the limelight, gave him regular starts with renowned players like Patrick Vieria, Thierry Henry, Robert Pires and Dennis Bergkamp? Or the manager who resuscitated your so called talent with your DNA and nurtured him into what he is today.

Let’s even take a look at Barcelona today. Do they really need Cesc? I watched keenly how the Spain National Team fared at the last world cup in South Africa. Cesc had good doses of sitting time on the bench. Why? Because the same players who are inviting him to come win the world with them are also key members in the National Team; Xavi, Iniesta and Sergio! Honestly with what value Cesc is being placed by the rest of the world, I can’t imagine him displacing any one of them in that midfield. Listen, Cesc; these guys think you are average, not good, and not bad. Opting for Barcelona now means you sure are going to enjoy what the likes of Denilson, Eboue and Bendtner enjoy on the Arsenal Substitute’s bench. Imagine a Champions league finals and Cesc Fabregas is on the bench; interesting, if you ask me. All these rumours and speculations do well in unsettling a player. This is evident in Cesc’s displays last season. If you run away from a team you are captain of in search of greener pastures to win, then have you really won?

For this season, the Arsenal board has voiced that Cesc is not for sale; Barcelona thinks our captain is of the same worth as Andy Caroll. Wonderful! Cesc, wish you can see the handwriting on the wall because life at the camp Nou would not be an easy ride. Today’s news say Barca board pointing out that Cesc is doing all he can to get a move to Barcelona whereas only last week, he said he was happy at Arsenal.

We know you would return to Barca someday, but now just isn’t the right time.
