i find it weird that the english spend so much time reading tabloids. it's all time that you'll never get back and it increases your knowledge by basically zero. hardly any of them do real journalism - the internet has made that unprofitable. people would rather read fake news for free.

at least this place is entertaining sometimes!

The Mirror is relatively decent. Plus the tabloid press carries alot of stories that you don't get in the broadsheets; ignore the sensationalism and they play an important role in broadening your depth of knowledge.

."I've always said that I'm happy at Barca. Whoever says that I'm leaving doesn't know me and has never spoken with me," he said.
"Nor with my agent, because he knows that I don't want him to talk with other people about me. I'm very private and I don't even talk about these things with my family.
"If someone says anything that isn't that I want to play at Barca, it's completely absurd."

Is that the second or third denial?
He does sound convincing though.

This rumour is a pipe dream. More chance of Rooster or Higgs Boson coming here than Fabregas. The guy is obviously insulted by the link. Look at the defensive tone of these denials. He really wants to prove himself at Barca.

Bold Tone

Now he knows how we felt when Barca played this game on us.
Wouldn't put it past them to be behind these rumours again.

y va marquer

You think Barca are putting it around that they are willing to part with Cesc?
Hmmm. Hadn't thought about that but I wouldn't think it beyond them to do so.

Bold Tone

Not very likely, i admit, as the risk of blowback to them is far too great but at least Karma is making him deal with the kind of shit he/they put us through summer after summer.

Qwiss

Yep I'm delighted he's failing over there.

Rex

Yep, huge fiasco.

Claudius

yup, Fabregas has been a massive failure at Barcelona
in La Liga this season, he was only
2nd highest scorer
3rd highest assist-maker

pretty rubbish.

Mirth

He's clearly struggling to find a role in the team and getting stick for it, whatever his stats.

Patters

Some cracking hat-tricks against FC Real Pedro.

goon

He's one of the best midfielders on the planet, of course he'll score and assist. That's not how you define whether or not he's been a success.

y va marquer

Fabregas himself doesn't think he's been a success, he knows it's still a big challenge to become as respected and revered as the other top players at Barca.

Irishgunner

He certainly hasn't failed, but I don't think that he's been a success either (yet).

Reasons why Barcelona will let Cesc go:

Although he's an outstanding example, they have a pipeline of similar players, and have current stars ahead of him
Expectations on him cause friction within and without squad, but it's still unclear if he'll have a central role in the season to come
He was a Guardiola signing and worships Guardiola, who is now gone
He's arguably more direct in style than their preferred modus operandi - not a natural fit for a team suffering from Messidependencia ...
Neymar was seriously pricy, and which departure other than Fabregas's would be any sort of quid pro quo?
Dressing room politics (speculation)

Reasons why Barcelona will not let Cesc go:

He's Catalan and idolises Barca
He has a long term contract
He's a fucking good player
The players ahead of him are slowly reaching a use by date
The players behind him aren't as good
Despite not having a central role, he still manages to be incredibly productive whenever he plays at any level

Guessing the "will nots" still outweigh the "wills" from Barcelona's side ...

banduan

Let go:

Barca fans don't actually like him that much.

Burnwinter

Keep:

Barca fans are a bunch of stupid fuckers who will adore him the moment he starts games
