Cesc Fàbregas: "I wouldn't have gone to Manchester United for double or even triple the amount of money that I earn now."

It's easy to say that now, appeases the Barca faithful. But I can't believe that he wasn't interested at all with all the interest we showed.

He doesn't feature in Barca's first 11 when the big games come, and we'll see if he gets in the starting 11 for Spain at the World Cup next year.

I'm not bitter, I think he's absolutely class, and I would play him now. Maybe drop Xavi into Biscuit's role? I'd certainly play him as an inverted winger rather than sit him on the bench!

Wonder what might of been if we'd bid £40+ million plus some add ons over time?

Easy for him to say that now. If that's how he feels fair enough, but why didn't he come out and say that after our first bid. I admire players who are loyal to their clubs, but you have to question their sincerity when they do their talking after the event. At least he has tried to show his loyalty though. Are you listening Mr Rooney?

Fabregas was never ever ever ever going to sign for united, he dislikes moyes after moyes tried to shaft him with the F.A. also unlike rvp fabregas does love arsenal and wouldn't play in the EPL unless it was with arsenal, some Man United fans may find it imposible to comprehend a player doesn't want to come to you, but hey-ho there you go

I posted a long time ago that fabregas wouldn't come and was stringing us along as he hates us, I said at the time did anyone remember him throwing pizza at the greatest manager that ever lived! He wanted to mess up our transfer plans for this window and thank to a mixture of niaevity and incompetence from deadwood, he got his wish.

Tookers, many players use MU's name to get a better contract with their club, but I think Cesc wanted playing assurances from Barcelona in a World Cup year. He used MU as a way of getting assurances. His agent knew we were interested in strengthening that position so we were the perfect club to use for his benefit. SAF and Gill would have figured this out much quicker than Moyes and Ed did. I guess when you have an agent saying his client wants to join, so make bids for him, Moyes must have thought Christmas has come early. 002 did give us hints like "why would Cesc want to leave Barcelona?" If 002 knew what was going on then surely our CEO should have figured it out earlier?

I think a lot of people on this site worked it out pretty early

Those comments are being taken completely out of context. He is merely showing his huge allegiance to Barca. He at no point shows evidence of 'hate'
