Wenger dismisses new Fabregas rumours

Asked about the new rumours linking Arsenal midfielder and Spain international Cesc Fabregas (22) with a move to Barcelona (read more here), Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger has rejected at a press conference all reports about a deal for this or next summer:

"I believe that apart from giving some articles to the newspapers all the rest is rubbish. It doesn't help football, it doesn't help people to focus on their job and it is sometimes destabilising.

The way Spanish clubs are run is more political than sport-orientated. How much does that harm other clubs? It is difficult to measure. But it doesn't help other clubs when somebody who has, for example, no chance to be elected next year as president, can announce any name. What can you do against him? Nothing. Does that help other clubs? Certainly not. The only thing I can say that the day I will agree to sell a player one year in advance, I will not be in this job any more."

Well, IMO it was media who have been circulating all of the rumors around the world. Barca did have an interest in Cesc, because Cesc may have the ability to do jobs for us. So why he say bad things to us? Pep has stated clearly that we are backing down. So what is the problem?

Its not like Arsenal have never been interested in our players. He already stole 2 of our cantera products.

cesc must have put pressure to wenger ,you can see it in wenger's reaction.he is too afraid of losing cesc this year cause without him he has no chance of getting the 4th spot instead of man city and spurs.

also you can see who is running the show in arsenal,wenger handles all the transfers himself not his board,thats how we should have been,entrust pep with the budget and let him make the decitions,txiki should work for pep not the other way around.....

also if wenger says there is no deal for next year with such confidence that means i was right in the other thread,b4l soz m8:P

he steals 16 yo kids from other clubs and says they distabilise football.

its disappointing to hear that from an intelligent coach.

m8 you know that our youth too is made of buying 12-16 year old players.....

some may argue that the raise of a footballer is at his first years 8-16 but some will say 16-21 are the years that make a player,either way we are not better than arsenal,and its all business in the end.arsenal and barcelona are great examples for clubs,they give youth players a first team try and buy players only to fill the gaps,if other teams would do the same then there would be better youth academies and football would be a better lvl than it is now

that being said i hate wenger now,he should learn his place,arsenal isnt as big club as barca and when he jokes about getting messi he makes a joke on himself

I have changed my mind on Cesc i actually would like to see him in Barca. Hope he comes next year. Why are people calling Wenger Voyer or Pervert ??
