There is no contradiction - the article is FALSE - no Arsenal insider said we would sell Cesc for £40m, because, as it stands there is NO PRICE for selling Cesc at the moment - he is simply NOT FOR SALE. Now if an OFFER is made, we might consider it and Cesc could in theory be sold.

Can he be sold for £40m? Yes it's possible, just like it's possible (even if unlikely) that Emirates stadium will be moved to Blackburn for their games next season.

Look, while some of these articles are indeed FALSE, I would indulge you to pay a closer attention to them. Never say never.
Well, we shall see if Cesc remains at the Emirati (that is if you dont move to Ewood Park ).

allboyz:
Cesc will go NOWHERE this summer . . .

i thing i think FAB4 wants is that . . .he wants to be Arsenal's captain when we win a EPL/UCL . . .he wants to lift the trophy with the Gunners

At what age? 84? 

A plot by Inter to get them for a lower price.

[quote author=kay_pumpin link=topic=268431.msg4142447#msg4142447 date=1246881962]Dude should just give it a rest please, he's gone to la liga and should live EPL alone.
What is it with "some players can't match your skill and will rather break your bone" and "referees protect players better in La liga" ish . . . . .
The media is giving Ron and Tevez too much attention,they should shut up or write a book

BTW,Will DayoK love CR now that he's not in EPL [/quote]

debosky:
It's not ruled out, but HIGHLY unlikely - Why would Barca buy Cesc right now? Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets are all there. . .

Real would make some sense, but then again, too complicated.

This is tabloid guff and nothing more - Henry left as Captain, but astute observers knew he was gone when he was 'injured' from March till May but no one knew what the injury was. Note Henry had already been captain for TWO seasons before leaving.

While nothing is impossible, this comment about arsenal being willing to sell for £40m is nothing but a lie.

Pardon my probing but are you not contradicting yourself?
If it is not ruled out then it is not a lie or do you mean the price is wrong or that he WILL NOT be sold?
If you maintain that there is a "possibility" then he CAN be sold even at 40 mil.

Ron's parting shot at Prem

CRISTIANO RONALDO last night fired a parting shot at the Premier League by claiming La Liga has more quality.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4142336#msg4142336 date=1246880742]I was talking about the final not the overall strength of the team.
To be honest, the final was the only game i saw in the whole tournament one morning on British Eurosport cos i completely forgot about the whole schitzo.[/quote]Now I see where you are coming from but ain't no point saying Chile took France apart. That was not the case.
However, it is true Chile won and as such they were the better team on that day based on your theory (i.e they outscored their opponent) .  

[quote author=kay_pumpin link=topic=268431.msg4142359#msg4142359 date=1246880991]Compared to the other big 3,Arsenal's folly at the back is preposterous.This shouldn't be up for argument at all.[/quote]To quote Brashy, Yes Boss. 

debosky:
@ FBS

Arsene will not sell Cesc this season. If he does, he will certainly get more than £40m. If Ade was not sold for £25m last season, why sell Cesc when he's JUST been made Captain? It won't happen.

People will soon speculate that we will sell the Emirates to Chelski if they sell Cashley to Leyton Orient.

@Debosky,a good joke that one. 
But on a serious note. That Cesc is captain don't mean he cannot be sold. Was Titi not your captain before he left for BArca?
Did SAF not say over his dead body and would not even sell a virus to RM? Tell me, where is CR7 today?

Not that I care if he is sold or not, but DON'T ever rule such a scenario out.

[quote author=kay_pumpin link=topic=268431.msg4142307#msg4142307 date=1246880470]Arsenal's problem has never been that of scoring BUT conceeding cheeky goals.
Not just last season but since the trophyless streak started.[/quote]tell me which team ain't guilty of that?

@debo,
I thnk he mentioned this, no?
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4142224#msg4142224 date=1246879583]Arsenal rarely fails to put up a majestic display everytime they play but they have not won the league in half-a-decade.
Football is about working as a team and outscoring your opponents.
100% possession, 100 shots on target, 500 corner kicks and 800 free-kicks don't mean nowt.
The name of the game is SCORING GOALS and that is where Arsenal have come short.[/quote]

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4142224#msg4142224 date=1246879583]It depends on what you mean by the better team.
There is a better team OVERALL and a better team on the day.
When United lost to Fulham. . . . .Fulham were the better team on that DAY without a doubt. . . . .
In the USA V Spain game, USA were the better team on the night. . . . .they defended well and they outsmarted SPAIN.[/quote]Ha. Now you see my point. On the day and overall.
France IMHO were the better team overall but Chile on that day.
Thats how I see it.

The only disappointing player as I see it was the guy playing RB. None of his passes reached its target. But as a whole, I love the French team.

Not that Brazil cannot play that style (infact they still do, especially when 3 or 4 goals up ) but look at what happened. Egypt hit right back.Now had Pharaoh's children won, would you say they are better than Brazil?

The name of the game is scoring goals (no disputes about that) but that you do not score as a team don't make you the worst team (e.g Arsenal).

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4142198#msg4142198 date=1246879285]Are Arsenal the best side in England going by this theory of yours?[/quote]No pun intended but Arsenal are a lost entity. Sorry to say. 
That theory does not apply to them.
Arsenal were not always the best side even when they were red hot.

But do you agree than the better team does not always win or do you mean to say because USA beat Spain then The US are now kings?

Emperoh:
And thats the difference btw the winner and loser, an experienced and inexperienced side.
Remember SA v Brazil Confed 2009?

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4142147#msg4142147 date=1246878693]I thunk Football is about taking chances, no?
Chelsea were better than Barcelona @ SB but lost because they didn't take their chances.
Chile played like MEN. . . . .They were playing the host country in a final so they soaked up the pressure and hit on the counter.[/quote]Again I'm not disputing this and you are right but NOT 100%. Why? because the better team does not always win. That is also football.
Chelsea also lost to Barca not only because they did not take their chances but also because that Overdose (or it is Overbo) is a d.ick with zero balls.

We'll sell Cesc , for £40m

ARSENAL have slapped a Ј40million price-tag on Cesc Fabregas as they brace themselves for a bid from Real Madrid or Barcelona.

A Gunners insider said: "Nobody at Arsenal wants to see Fabregas go but there comes a point when the money is too good to turn down.


"If Arsenal receive a bid in the region of Ј40m there will be an enormous pressure to sell."

me thinks this is the craziest summer ever.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=268431.msg4141997#msg4141997 date=1246876881]The Chileans were better with counter-attacks and short samba passes.
I enjoyed watching em move the ball around with little triangles a la Barcelona.
It didn't surprise me they took France apart.[/quote]Well, it does depend on how you see it, me still think the Croissant Boyz were better.
The Chileans were rough IMHO just like the touts from Argentina (Whats up with Diego Buonanotte?).
And yes, they counter attacked very well but overall they were lost in the game. One single chance fell to Martinez and that was all that was needed.
France on the other hand played like their senior brothers. All fancy with no result.

I saw the lad play in the Toulon tournament when they were taken apart by Chile and he was very brilliant.
He needs at least 2 years to break into the first team of Man Utd but i would take him.[/quote]I would say France played better than Chile only that they (French team) had no clinical finisher and wasted a host of chances.
Chile scored their only chance.
But Obertan is good. He was very brilliant. I would take him W.I.E. (with immediate effect).

Lamps is Mr Chelsea but if JT wants to be a legend then he should pitch his behind with Chelsea.
Are we going to miss him, Yes I think so. . . though Lamps, I think can fill the void.
You never know what you can do until you are thrust into that vital position.

FBS how did you draw people's attention to your broiler layed eggs

Brashy, mehn I had to improvise. Picture me with a tray of eggs on my head and shouting: Fresh Eggs. Fresh [b]Broiler [/b]eggs.

But Thank God, that was some many years ago.

MrCrackles:
I can imagine!

yeah but its all good. I can tell my kids that their was a hard man.

dominique:
i bet you broke some

Nope. breaking some would have meant reduction in liquid cash.  

Did sell some eggs (in my area- just a for a day or 2) from our poultry back then . 

It was quite an experience.

Nigeria. na wa oooooooooo

dayokanu:
What reason are you thinking of other than the loud mouth. I have no issues with England if they accept their place in the world alongside Togo, Singapore and Switzerland

Trying to compare themselves to better countries irritate me

Then Germany should be alongside Iran, Afghanistan and South Africa. Is that what you mean?

But what from earlier post, one can deduce that your qualms is not with England but with the folks you support them.

dayokanu:
where are the Sharons, Tkb and co the English fans

Serena ! Yeah!
where is Ruddie? hahaha.
what are you going to do now? kai I no fit laugh. Serena don shame you.

Serena powers to Wimbledon title
Serena Williams ended her sister's recent dominance at Wimbledon with a straight-sets victory over Venus that gave her a third Wimbledon title.

The 27-year-old won 7-6 (7-3) 6-2 to regain the title she won in 2002 and 2003, and end five-time champion Venus's hopes of a third straight win.

dayokanu:
FBS,

Its about the coward English supporters who all vanished into thin air after their team shameful outing. All the fans vacated this thread this is something a true fan would never do

After the finals all of them never returned. The Germans put them in their place which is FARRRRR below Germany.

Soft spot for that idiotic nation?

@Dayokanu,
Frankly, I don't know of any English supporters on this thread. I know of those who support English football teams. Can we agree that these two are different?

And if I may ask, why the hate or dislike for England? If it is what I think then, Germany is no better.
Perhaps you can shed more light on this for me.
