Fabregas v Villa http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2014/9/29/6865309/cesc-fabregas-midfield-analysis
Obi Mikel Kenobi is having a good season. I do not miss Rami when Mikel comes on. He has better passing and tackling and more composure than Ramirez. Rami wins in focus though.Our original refitted deep midfielder is benefiting from Matic next to him and these guys have trained together longer than we remember from Matic's first spell at the club.
Cesc: "I haven’t played [deep in midfield] since my Arsenal years, since 2008/2009, so for me to go back deep and experience again this position [this season], it took me a while. I was always pressing the ball and going forward because this is the Barcelona way and they always want you to press high. Some times I was leaving many holes behind me but I had to change that. Man City was the first game when I did it a little bit better and the last couple of games I am getting used to it and feeling more comfortable. Matic is a really great football player, defensively with the ball I am very impressed by him and hopefully we will grow up together more and more." http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2014/10/6/6918093/cesc-fabregas-midfield-positioning
