4 - Cesc Fabregas

[R10(FCB)]

To often news form ********* isn't true...example, this summer every hour, according to *********, Ronaldinho was in another club. At 15.00h the news was "Ronaldinho goes to Manchester city" at 16.00h same day news on ********* is "Ronaldinho goes to AC Milan" and at 18.00h news is "Ronaldinho stays in Barcelona".... So i don't believe to ********* news anymore.

[Gnegneri]

But the shitty thing is that everyone keeps on quoting and copy/pasting ********* stories.

[maz]

I cant stand *********. I went on it once to read an article about lampard and after that i never went on there again. In fact if someone posts an article on here i always skip to see what source its from and if its ********* i dont even bother reading it!

[Bojan]

I read that site once a month maybe. They do translate news but most of the time they just copy from other sources or simply fabricate something. Not to mention their "experts" texts. They got people talking though and I think thats all they care about anyhow.

[Zqa-]

Their "experts" texts are pretty funny though. They are so pro-Serie A, it's pretty funny.

[Warik]

You just need to go on there now to see how bad it is. A story about Mourinho judging from the picture with the title "U can't say no"

U might not be able to say no but YOU certainly can. You know journalism is going down the pan when people start writing articles in text speak.

I think he will end up in Madrid, I just have that feeling because of what he says and he's crazy to leave Arsenal... And right now, Madrid are the only team willing to give him a huge load of money and a sure place in their starting eleven...

[Zqa-]

I don't think he will. I think he will leave for us in 1-2 years. He's a catalan and a barcelonaist.

[gazza]

Don't quote me on this but im sure he signed a long term contract at Arsenal last year ( seven years ).
Now 37 million ain't gonna pay of his contract and the fee Arsenal would want.
Leave him there till he gets bored of not winning anything with them, then tempt them .

[Bojan]

I thought he got bored by now :smile:

[shadows]

I always felt it would set a bad example to the La Masia players if we keep on buying our youth products for huge money..Everyone wud get de feeling that if they go and become successful abroad they will get more money and can one day play in de first team of Barca..

This is true. And we probably offer them great contracts for them to return. However the reason the likes of piqué and cesc left isnt down to us. Its the way it is in spain. And since they are the type of players fcb thrives itself on, it makes sense we want them back in our first team squad. Because thats the exact reason we developed them anyway..to play in our first team squad.

The only thing we need to do it start initiating them into the first squad at a younger age. Give them a taster.

Yea it is true..But getting our youth team player back for 30-40 mn is just ridiculous..we might as well go for the Hernanes bid that ESPN STar are reporting as being reignited!!

[alexjanosik]

Rijkaard did bring in Messi,Gio and Bojan.Pep has brought in Busquets and Pedro.So it is not as if we have not been giving youth players chances.Over the past few years we have done a good job of bringing in youth players.
I am just glad that Rijkaard had the confidence to bring in Messi at such a young age.

and iniesta as well. He gave him much more minutes than most other coaches would have.
