La Liga players are the most overated ever, it is ridiculus how bad the defenders for the msot part are in Spain, of course it is easy to shine then

That is why C Ronaldo has been so impressive (and that means alota comign from a Gooner) he has played liek this against english teams!

Cesc is one of the best central midfielders in the world, and he is far from his prime, it is scary how good he can become if he continus to develop

Did you watch the world cup? Spain was a better team when Cesc ran the show

Iniesta fucks about on the wings mostly in Barca (or did atleast as a teenager), like Messi, a central midfielder has far greater responsibilities, cesc managed those while still a teenager, ffs he looked like he was prepubescent even and still managed challanging dudes like Keane. Cesc isn't flashy, he doesn't have to be, so maybe for an uneducated viewer he isn't as good as Messi or Iniesta but people who know football realises waht a great midfielder he is!

Of course Messi shined, who the fuck would care about him when you have Ronnie, Eto'o and Deco to worry about? he has taken the leap forward now thou don't get me wrong



Cesc will return to Barca after 8-9 years but in those years Arsenal will have some silverware, and it is the club of his childhood I would not feel bad, he will get Arsenal a hefty transfer sum aswell
So true man and another thing about Fabregas is that he is always there to pick up the loose ball. Wenger will know the right time to sell him and will probably get a great deal out of it too.

I think Fabianski will eventually become good. Adebayor, Flamini, Toure and a lot of other players Wenger has brought in were virtually unknown at the time and didn't look like they'd get into the Arsenal first team...look at them now. Just give him time.

Fabianski is not an unknown though, he's been capped by poland.

So what? Alex Davani is capped for PNG, i bet you've never of him either. If you asked a casual football fan 12 months ago if they knew who Fabianski was, most of them wouldn't have had a clue.

Fabianski was a relative unknown. Also he's very young and plays in Goal, a position where experience is a major factor, and is something he's gaining all the time at Arsenal. Not every signing needs to hit the ground running, Arsenal fans have patience and belief in our manager, something I guess you haven't had at Spurs for years. If you don't know what I'm talking about then you should look at this. With a few exceptions the entire list is basically deadwood.

Serie A is also having big changes.

Juventus and Inter are making big changes to their teams.
Lazio is in a big turmoil and that team is probably going to change a lot. Milan is doing big changes too as their team is old as hell.

Serie A has been in a terrible state since the match fixing scandal. For the next few years the Premiership will dominate the Champions League and maybe for the forseeable future with the amount of money floating around at the moment.
