Official: Cesc Fabregas Leaves For Monaco

Learned to be wary of big name signings by now, but on paper ... Wow. Couldn't get a better player- prime of career, comfortable across the midfield, technically excellent, home grown.

Particularly enjoying the notion that this won't work or doesn't make sense because he isn't a 'Mourinho player'. Maybe Arsenal fans just had Mourinho wrong the whole time- he likes their players just as much as they do!

Fab signing for the club and a wonderful addition to midfield.

Welcome to Chelsea Cesc Fabregas.

Burning Arsenal shirts and a sulking Piers Morgan are really adding to the fun.

Glorious.

A wonderful player playing at a wonderful club.

[DannyLB]

Absolutely delighted.

Now Arsenal fans can experience the horrible feeling many of is felt seeing Mata in a United shirt. The sale of Mata was the correct decision but it still hurt a great deal.

Fantastic signing, a genuine world class midfielder. Welcome to the club Cesc.

To be honest, I think Arsenal fans are much more hurt

If we are reverting back to 4-3-3 where does that leave oscar?

And they said homegrown talent is overpriced. :)

Top signing, no doubt. Don't get injured in the World cup.

Who would have thought that Cesc Fabregas would be our first signing of the summer?

Over the moon with this signing. Need creativity in the centre of the park for years, and we have Matic and Fabregas. Superb business by Chelsea, congrats.
