Cesc Fabregas is worth more like £50 million

Posted by on August 16, 2009 | 16 Comments


After watching Cesc Fabregas’ incredible performance for Arsenal yesterday, it made me laugh.

All summer long, Barcelona have been linked with a move for the Spanish midfielder, with the majority of papers claiming that a deal could be done for £30 million. Now, given the fact that Real Madrid signed Kaka for £58 million this summer, I personally think it would be insulting for Barca to bid just £30 million for Fabregas.

His performance yesterday reminded us all, just what a quality player he is. His ability to pick a pass is exceptional and I for one, feel there is no one better at that in the Premier League. In my opinion, without Fabregas, Arsenal would really struggle.

There is no doubt that Fabregas will eventually leave the Emirates, however I for one hope it’s not for at least another two years. When he does eventually leave, it would be a real shame if it was for anything less than £50 million. What do you think? Comments below please.

    If Barcelone want Cesc, that won’t be problem. But they have to be willing to surrender Messi, Xavi and Iniesta in the deal.
    Let them have Fabrgas and allow the other three to move in the opposite direction. Barcelona’s manager is becoming increasingly cocky.Someone should tell Guardiola to show some respect to Arsenal. We are equally a big club.

    i just as most gunners believe that cesc will one day leave the Grove for his childhood fantasy Barca but dat should take place not until he is past 25 or more than that. before dat it makes no sense to go der as their team already has xavi a player who is of same calibare as cesc and who is around his 30s. cesc is 22 and has around 5 yrs on his contract and can play for most of that part here.

    going by todays crazy valuation he is worth around 50mil give or take, but about 4yrs from now who knows. if he only adds a bit of GOALS and gets dat defensive tackle a La’Gerard he can be termed as the most valuable in the entire world.

    hey but i wud simply LOVE if he does a ADAMS with us……. :)

    Messi plus 50million should be okay. Cesc is a more disciplined player than ronaldo who was sold for 80m.

    The young star at the moment is worthy 100m, in 2yrs he will be worthy 120m simple as that.

    This brilliant Fab should be gooner legend, no sale and no 2 let him join any club at any price. The same applies to WENGER GOONER.

    Come on guys, to even suggest he leaves is to ensure that he will. He is a midfield player. Remember that. He does defensive as well as offensive duties. People do not count the fact that Messi is an attacker, the whole team passes to him, and being the quality player that he is, he does make goalsin return but his primary aim is to score goals. As a captain, Fabregas has to be mentally pressured about how his goalkeeper is doing, how his defenders are on confidence, how his attackers are feeling, whether his midfielders are believing enough or not!!! For god’s sake, if football was just a game of skill, every street footballer from Brazil to Bangladesh would make it big. It is much more than that. it is committment, love, passion, mental strength, desire and what not. To be what Fabregas is at 22 as a captain and a well loved figure at his club, would cost you a zillion, forget fuc**** 80 million paid for a moronic dystopic player, who for all his skills, lacks what is called genuine respect for the fans, for those very people who made their clubs and loved teams exist and be where they are today, i say bugger off. I am not a fan of Fabregas or henry or any player, I am a true supporter of THE AND ONLY ARSENAL FOOTBALL CLUB, of beautiful football, not bought but made lovingly, creatively and with passion, like any homelover makes his house with his sweat and blood. Love Arsenal, love football, and lets hope for the best. For their is belief in hope and hope is what we have in the end.

    Cesc is a great player, but somehow I feel that Wilshire is more of a danger to teams as he can get past players easily and is an excellent passer of the ball. Mind you, like Helb said every player improves under Arsene Wenger. So watch out for Cecs from from the academy

    Let ‘s make it simple they just swapped eto and 40million for ibrahimovic. Cesc is spanish an international and so we need to be asking for 50+ if he ever goes…i know he want’s to one day and you cant stop him….good luck to him it’s his home town after all.

    50m? too cheap in my opinion. he should be at least 100m euros. especially he still 22 and have a lot more to improve. i don’t think fabregas would leave in 2 years. wenger have history to hang on a player until he feels the player past his best and there is a replacement ready to take his place. so i think fabregas would stay with arsenal for another 4 or 5 seasons.

    Money can’t pay for Fabregas he is way to classy for any one. Worth alot more that Ronaldo’s £80million
