I really like Fabregas. He's the pulse of the current Arsenal team much like Henry, Viera and Bergkamp were before him. He has a complete game (including goal scoring) and shows genuine leadership in the middle of the pitch. No team wouldn't want him in their side. Apart from maybe Barcelona, ironically, who already have Xavi and Iniesta (although in modern times, it never hurts to have depth in your squad). Talking of which, I was made to eat my "stomach for the fight" words after watching the gunners defeat Barcelona in a thrilling come-from-behind victory in midweek. As last year, not sure they'll be that lucky in the return leg but with an early away goal, anything can happen...
Back to the hum-drum of the FA Cup today against a team two divisions below Arsenal that'll be looking for an upset. Real football as many supporters would claim in this country (as opposed to the Las Vegas style glitz of the Champions League).
