We don't need Fabregas.

Would you prefer Cesc over a DM and/or a Center Forward?

It all depends on the calibre of the striker. If we signed Cavani, then no to Fabregas.
If no Cavani, some random youth player from Southampton, and some average RB from Newcastle, then Hell yes we need Fabregas, regardless of how many players we already have in his position.

I couldn't care less if Flamini Rosicky and Diaby played no more than 1 minute for the entire 2014/15 season if Cesc signed. I want the best team possible. We'll see if Wenger moves for a striker which I doubt he will. Even if he does, it won't be sufficient enough in outdoing all the top teams in this league.

See what? You talked about us signing a right back as if we did it INSTEAD of signing Fabregas. We signed Ozil and Sanchez (to a lesser extent) instead of Fabregas. If we don't sign the players we need (a DM and a CF) then it's completely all on Wenger, but it has nothing to do with Cesc. It's pretty ridiculous to moan about us not signing him as if he would mask not bringing in the players we need.

See what? Nobody's going to be surprised when Fabregas starts tearing shit up with Chelsea, but that's not the point. Buying the best players possible does not mean you're going to get the best team possible, that's the point here. If you're too stupid to realise that then you have no business telling anybody who they should buy.

I'd agree if we signed a top RB, a top Striker and a top DM to make this team solid as fuck.

But we've just spent £16m, SIXTEEN FUCKING MILLION on some random kid.

Cesc for 9m more. I know If I were in charge Chambers wouldn't have been signed, and Cesc would have.

We'd be 9m worse off in my fantasy than in real life, but so much better off as a team.

How does that work? Firstly, we haven't paid 16mil yet. We pay that if he reaches certain goals at the club. However, he is a player that could potentially be a very good servant for the club over the next 10+ years, in positions we lack depth in.

As for Cesc, we would be paying nearly 15mil more for a player that we have zero need for, It doesn't matter how good he is.

"We have zero need for" We both have different opinions on what's needed and what's not needed.
I seen time and time again, year on year Wenger push players to the limits, with almost certain injuries happening because of it. We saw last season Ozil is mentally weak as fuck, so when he's off the ball, who will slot into the number 10 role and be as effective as him? Oxlade? Rosicky? Cazorla? We'd like to hope so, Cesc is guaranteed to come into that position, and play like he never left.

What makes it even worse is us rejecting him means he went to Chelsea. I'd push even harder for him for that reason alone. We'll fit him in somehow, the season is long and draining. A player like Oxlade or Rosicky isn't going to get us past a big European side, Cesc can. He's done it. He's proved himself.

One of the biggest cockups in Wengers era.

Raiders is such a Cesc fanboy. You know we can't just be throwing 25mil around for a player that will step in for Ozil from time to time?

Why do I keep hearing this argument that Cesc can slot in for Oezil if he's not on form? It's bollocks. First of all, Cesc is too fucking good to be considered a player that could "cover" another player. Second of all, if you bought Cesc he would play 10 and probably Oezil on the left, where he isn't as effective, he probably gets pissed off and will be gone within a couple of seasons.

So basically, it's a shit idea. Fair enough you don't want Chambers. Spend the money more wisely on a position you need players in rather than trying to cram as many 10s into the side as possible. We tried that at United, look what happened.

But we can spend £26m on Debuchy and Chambers :laughcry:

We've just spent £26m, and we have taken a sideways step. I don't see it as an improvement over last season.
