Cesc Fabregas

Fuck me how was that 15 years ago?!

Yip, my coverage didn’t even show the goal live because of the replays.

It was strange to see the scoreline saying 2-0 once replays ended.

:bergkamp2: oh what could have been…

I’d love to see the look on spud fan faces in that moment.

I’m still furious with Cesc and probably always will be but this is one of my favorite Arsenal moments ever.

I was lower tier in the clock end. We were still celebrating the first goal when we heard a big roar turned around and fabregas was one on one. It was lucky it was close to half time took me 15mins to get my breath back.

When we used to chuck on forwards to chase a goal was worse.

That’s my exact same mindset and I used to hate that with Wenger.

Actually even when you look at Mourinho, or some other great defensive managers, often they wont try to close down a game by adding numbers in the back line, but Wenger always used to do that.

Arteta also does that too often.

He just yesterday masterminded a win for Lake Como away to Fiorentina and they are sitting 13th in the league with a 5 point gap from relegation.

Hear me out when Arteta eventually leaves. Get Cesc in if he’s still progressing in his managerial career.

I would absolutely love it

Good chance Chelsea get him. They are always looking for a new manager.

I wonder how having a stake in Como plays a factor here though.

Either way, Como have big goals, been really active in the last two windows and tried to make a play for Rashford too.
Think he’s in a great spot now without too much pressure. The team they’ve assembled should be good to survive this season and continue building from there.

Should be challenging for a European spot in the next two years.

Feel for Conte because he dragged this team to the top of the table and now he’s being asked to continue working without the defensive reinforcement he asked for and the Kvara replacement…

Inter’s gonna do it again.

Some of that sounded oddly familiar.
