Uncle Mike said:That's the point: To insult him. He deserves it.viper_001 said:8 years, Mike. 1 Third of his life he spent here without winning anything. Would be an insult to all he's done to compare him to those moneygrabbing clowns who only had 1 good season with us then left for the highest wage packet.
He had these choices:
1. Tell Barcelona, "Back off, I'm with Arsenal for the length of my contract."
2. Tell Wenger, "I just spent a World Cup with a lot of these guys. Let me go back. You can use the money to get 3 players who can contribute what I can." In other words, end this a year ago before it got ugly.
3. Tell Wenger, "I'm going back to Barcelona, and if you don't let me, I'm gonna use my Barcelona mates to undermine you in the media and make you look like a fool until you sell me for a lot less than you think I'm worth. I don't care if it takes one year, or the entire length of the contract until they can sign me on a free. I can do this because I'm Barcelona 'til I die -- no matter what those mugs in the stands sing about me being 'Arsenal through and through' and letting me shag their wives."
1. would have been the right thing to do. 2. would have been unpleasant, but there still would have been honor to it. Instead, he chose 3.
He is worth the insults.

And how would that have functionally been different from what he actually did? It wouldn't have been. It would have been better if he had: Because then, he would have been enough of a man to do his own dirty work, instead of letting those lizards Puyol and Xavi do it for him. It was not just disloyal, it was cowardly as hell.Mastadon said:B@ll@cks. He could have sent in a transfer request to push a move through at any time.
Bullshit and a half. The club didn't let him down. The club MADE him. Who can blame him? Anybody who understands that he would be just another Barca benchwarmer had he stayed -- which he may yet turn out to be.Mastadon said:This season, with the club once again showing no ambition during the summer, he decided to go back home and who can blame him? He gave his all when he was with us but was let down by the club many times.
Magical? Was he magical when he kept getting hurt? Was he magical when he didn't show up during the CL Semis against United? Was he ****ing magical when he did that backheel on his home field (Camp Nou)?Mastadon said:I hate seeing him in a Barca jersey but I know he loves Arsenal and he had to do what was best for his career and as a catalonian he had to play for Barca. He is one of the best players we have ever had and has been magical for us during his time here. I wish him all the best at Barca and hope that I will be able to see him in an Arsenal shirt again.
Fabregas has as much right to refer to Arsenal as "we" as Kim Philby had to refer to Britain as "we."OohtobeaGoonerGal said:Uncle Mike, you are someone who will underrate this. His quotes about our win over Udinese and saying "we" got a very bittersweet reaction out of me. He will never forget what we done for him. However, it was still ultimately not enough.

Thank you. This is the point that the Cesc fanboys (and fangirls) are refusing to grasp.McIntyre said:GDeep said:I hope Barca win everything this year, I will be supporting them.
Are you kidding me? After all that those Barca c*nts put us through? And given that we're in one competition with them I truly hope you didn't mean EVERYTHING! Are you sure you're an Arsenal fan?
Why dont you go off and support them then, I'll even delete your A-M account for you.GDeep said:I hope Barca win everything this year, I will be supporting them.
