"One of the biggest Summer signings this year could be at Old Trafford where Man United's pursuit of Cesc Fabregas is very much ON. In the last few hours David Moyes has been quoted as saying the transfer is 'ongoing'." Word for word Kirsty Gallagher just said that on SSN. I'd understand if it was a slow news day and there was nothing to report but there is actually quite a lot. Sky have proved this Summer to be nothing more than a mouthpiece for United.
The Daily Mail are reporting that Cesc has told friends in football that he wants to play for Man United. All I will say is thank **** it is the Mail reporting it.
Fabregas going to Utd would really be a kick in the teeth. RVP was bad enough but if our wonderboy ends up at Utd playing against us i'd be devestated. If he becomes available i hope we do everything in our power to sign him. Fabregas and Suarez would take us straight back up to title contenders.
We should start a "Come Home El Capitan - You have Arsenal DNA" - just all act like its alreay happening - spam the hell out of his twitter and get the nostalgia boiling over - get him to remember the passion the clubs fans had for him and the hatred of Utd!
Cesc going to United would be a huge reason never to trust the words of a footballer ever again. Saying that, more fool us for trusting glory-hunting money grabbers in the first place I suppose.
Cesc isn't worth the fuss. If Man Utd want to spend well in excess of £30m on him then just be grateful they haven't used the money to strengthen where they actually need to.

Cesc would improve any team in the world and given his history if anyone is going to benefit from his ability id much rather it was us than Utd. The possibility of Fabregas, Cazorla, Wilshere, Suarez, Arteta - all in the same team is mouth watering... We would be back to the passing team that is good to watch. Back to being exciting and dominating posession.
I'll feel worse about Fabregas going to Utd than when he left Arsenal for Barca - DONT DO IT CESC - NORTH LONDON IS YOUR HOME!
We were interested in Fellaini but the rumours died out after he supposedly said he wanted 100k+ wages and apparently we said he wasnt worth that.
For me - if both have a chance of being signed, then we should go all out to sign Suarez and Fabregas - £65-75mil would probably get both? We would have a mouth watering first team and some great depth throughout the squad.
