If reports are true, MU have offered Cesc generous terms to join, but he wants to move to London (or the missus). With Arsenal not interested it only leaves Chelsea, so he wants that move. Chelsea would prefer other players, but Cesc seems an easy deal. If Oscar leaves which is likely, then Cesc will likely move to Chelsea. Perhaps we should offer a little bit more money to Cesc? Money talks.

Given some of his previous comments about Mourinho and Chelski I find it hard to believe he would move there under any circumstances.

I still think Arsenal will move for him but if he's willing to compromise his integrity and move to Chelski then I wouldn't want him anyway.

Does any of that really matter though R7? He gets to stay in London, he gets a higher salary than what he would get at Arsenal and Arsenal telling him they aren't interested, means he can move to Chelsea without any guilt at all. AW will be the villain to the Arsenal fans, not Cesc. If I am not mistaken, I'm sure they still have an house in London too. Our only hope is that Chelsea get one of their primary targets instead, but I won't be happy watching Pogba in blue either.

I don't think he will join Chelsea, his best position IMO is not in an attacking three behind the striker but just infront of the defense where he can see a pass and has ore time on the ball.

Chelsea seemingly have interest elsewhere. City not likely to go for him since they will soon get Fernando. Arsenal not interested. We are the only genuinely interested party from the premier league. So Unless he moves to Italy, Germany or another Spanish club, I think he will end up with us.

Saying all of that one of the players Chelsea are interested in is Koke who also has Barca chasing after his signature. But I don't think Chelsea will let go of one of their main targets and settle for Fabregas which the case may be if Barca do indeed win the race for his signature. One transfer could spark a series of transfers into life.

My understanding which is based purely on what I've been reading in the papers, probably all bullocks is that Mourinho doesn't want Fabregas but the club wants him. Am not sure how much sense that makes but were it to happen then Fabregas risks being another Mata

I don't buy that Syd. It's been widely reported that he wanted a move to us last summer, but obviously Barca wanted to paint a different picture.
Perhaps no CL this season will hurt us a bit, but we're still Manchester United ad I genuinely think Fabregas prefers a move to us. I don't thin DDG would have said anything if he wasn't confident Fabregas wanted to come to us.
The ABU media are just doing there usual of making stories where such and such snub us fo whatever. In the last few days I've seen both "he wants to live in London again" and "Barca don't want to sell to Chelsea specifically" from the same sites so it really reaks of the anyone but United sentiment that's so common these days.
My bigger worry is that LVG doesn't want him or Kroos.

Prodigal, MU will want Cesc or Kroos. It's whether we can get them.

According to a paper, Fabregas had a medical with Chelsea last week and was flown in by private jet, Chelsea and Barce are discussing a fee which is yet to be agreed.
