Can't see palace coughing up Brentford's required £15m at the first time of asking when they already have benteke. An agent has probably tried to put this story into the public domain to force us to make our decision
Not sure Hogan would be keen to sign anyway if he's read SSN's comments that there's disagreement within the club as to whether we should sign him or not. He may think it's Bilic who doesn't want him.
No one is doubting Fabregas' ability (although I think he is a long way past his best.)
It is his attitude when he plays that I loathe - his sly digs and kicks at the opposition, his gamesmanship, which is to say, cheating, simulating injury etc.
I don't like his 'values' and I don't want him at the club regardless of how many country miles he might be better than other players.
Since he's been at Chelsea whenever there is any kind of ;handbags on the pitch he is at the centre of it. He's almost never the one getting booked or sent off, but he's always in the middle prodding at people and starting stuff.
It's a shame because, when he was at Arsenal, I thought he was fantastic and seemed to play with a good attitude too.
Fabregas has the killer pass that we maybe lack, but he's only really effective at this point of his career in an advanced midfield 3 and while Lanzini stats don't compare to Cecs think his overall game and his potential to improve he's my preferred option
Another thing is that the team would have a worrying lack of pace with Cesc in the team, but if the right deal can come in I wouldn't say no
Have to disagree with you Nick. He's played pretty well all season and bossed the game at Boro and played well against Palace. He's not a Payet so unfair to burden him as his replacement.
I was just going to make my tea but having read the previous comments - Never a dull moment. Brick walls. Blind alleys - I feel I should go and listen to my old Rod Stewart and the Faces albums instead..

Not so long ago we had Faye, Diop and Alou Diarra yet 'nah thanks' to Cesc Fabregas?

At all his clubs look at the quality of player he has had all around him.
You'd probably think even I was a decent shout if managed a run of games alongside Messi, Iniesta, etc
How would he fare linking up with, say Calleri?

For You Tube you can just paste the link.
Sites like streamable aren't embeddable.
Seems to go against a lot of Twitter opinion, which seems to suggest we're no longer interested.
But then who knows. I guess the laws of averages dictate The Sun will get something right eventually
