Gazza_8 233 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Arsenal have agreed to sell Fabregas to Barca according to Guardiola. Excellent piece of business by Wenger. Kidnap him for nothing and then sell him on 7 or 8 years later for �£35m-40m. Thanks for the memories Cesc but you're just as well leaving as your heart wasn't in it anymore. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) I get fed up of Barca and Real during the summers with their tapping of players. Henry, Fabregas and Ronaldo for last 6 years has been poor even if the players want to go. Another excellent piece of 'business' by Wenger but after I backed them to win the league last season Im doubting a top 4 finish for Arsenal this year. Still no keeper although Szczesny looked decent last season and they still need a top partner for Vermaelen. Djourou, Squillachi and Koscienly are decent back up but nothing compared to Chelsea, Man U or Man Citys defence. Seems Nasri wants to go also, but the papers are saying Ribery is close to joining them which would be a boost. I thought losing Clichy was a loss but Arsenal have a cracking history of LBs (Samson, Winterburn, Silvinho, Even Van Bronkhorst played there, A Cole) and Kieron Gibbs is potentially the next top one.

Gazza_8 233 Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Kieran Gibbs is pish. I would keep him as a backup player but I don't think he's good enough for the 1st team. He looks nervous and often makes mistakes. Vermaelen could play LB but that would leave a huge gap in the central defence area. If Fabregas does go hopefully some of the money will be used to bring in Gary Cahill from Bolton. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
