It's officially official, Fabregas has joined Barca - Thank fuck! No offence to Arsenal fans, but this transfer saga has bored me to tears.

Well as you can clearly see im an arsenal fan and im glad to see the back of him to be honest despite all his contributions to the club.This has been allowed to go on far too long and should have been concluded long ago.
Id get nasri out as well the club matters more than any one player that will always be the case the saga has left a bad taste in the mouth and the recent photo of nasri in the sun will have incensed many arsenal fans and im sure most now want him out as well.

Fabregas has signed a five-year contract with Barcelona.

At least Arsenal will have about £35million to spend.

Hércules were relegated last season but still beat Barcelona. Almería and Deportivo de La Coruña were relegated too but both got draws at home to Real Madrid. Deportivo de La Coruña also drew away to Barcelona.

Yeah but the Premier League in gereral is a much stronger league, I was just using La Liga as an example I could've said Ligue 1 or Serie A & Deportivo are one if not the most pointless team in Europe, you'll know this if you've seen them play.

Everyone is jizzing over Aguero's performance, and yes it was pretty damn good, but it was at home to Swansea! Let's see how he does on a raining day away to Stoke!

Yep, the mark of a world-class player is playing on a cold November night in Stoke. Until then ya World Cup Medals, and Ballon D'ors mean piss all!

I get what people mean when they say that but that cliche pops up everytime a half decent player comes to the Prem

Aguero was awesome though

I only say it because in the Premier League, defenders actually tackle, while in La Liga, they don't!

Still a quality quality player, but only the first game he's played!

You seem to be contradicting yourself there, dismissing the Spanish League because they don't tackle, then dismissing Swansea, a Premier League team who presumably do tackle. Also I'm pretty sure that Real Madrid and Barcelona defenders tackle, and Aguero consistently managed to perform against them in the Spanish League. Why not just say "He's a fantastic player who had a superb debut" and leave it at that.

On last night's basis, City are going to be pretty exciting to watch this season, especially if they stick with Adam Johnson and David Silva (who was also fantastic last night) on the wings. It was also interesting to note that Mario Balotelli played no part in the match, and looked to be in a right sulk when he was warming up on the touchline.

southhampton manager nigel adkins doesn't need age increasing software to know what he'll look like in about 75 years!
