He became a first team player at Arsenal in the following season and was part of the FA Cup winning team via the penalty shootout win over Manchester United in the final. Cesc Fabregas went on to captain Arsenal after the departures of Patrick Vieira and Thierry Henry. Read More

index

 

Chelsea fans are very excited with the seeming acquisition of Timo Werner from the German Bundesliga side RB Leipzig. The fans are already hopeful of a Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas type of partnership that would light up the Premier League.

index

Despite funds being hardly available and even when it were, the players Mikel Arteta really wanted to sign just seemed out of reach, Pablo Mari was brought in from Brazilian side Flamengo and the Spaniard now says his number one wish is to follow in the footsteps of his countrymen Santi Carzola and Cesc Fabregas that have in the past marshalled the midfield of the Gunners and if possible, surpass them.

WHY IS ARSENE WENGER TRYING TO CLIMB BACK ON THE STAGE?

index

The most important part of being a legend is learning when to quit: on a high note while leaving the crowd wanting more.

This week saw Cesc Fabregas and Thierry Henry urging Arsene Wenger to return to the sidelines while cheering him up after picking up an award nobody in the footballing world cares about. One can only hope the old man does not fall for the bait.

Although the French man didn’t get to pull a Sir Alex Ferguson exit – winning the English Premier League in his last season – his legend still remains intact because it is actually hard to remember how he quit but his achievement at Highbury and later the Emirates remains forever etched into the mind of football faithful.

Having spent much time making the rumour rounds whenever a club owner decides to do what they do best: never give a benefit of doubt to the manager they hired to clear their doubt, Arsene Wenger’s name pops up on all sports tabloids from London to New York all the way to the jumbled newspapers on the streets of Lagos.

There’s no gain saying that the earlier he officially retires and takes up a role with FIFA where he gets to wear $9000 suits and pretend to talk about “issues affecting world soccer” with the rest of his colleagues wearing $9000 suits and pretending to talk about issues affecting world soccer, the better.

Arsenal are not going to have him back. Going to another club means doing the one thing he hasn’t done in decades: start from scratch and have club owners crawl all over you because you haven’t won their trust.

Club owners of nowadays are even more impatient and for a man that loves building in patience, he’s better off staying away from that kind of marriage.
