If he went to Braca, he would go with my blessing.

I agree. I think Mikel has always been upfront about wanting to end up back in Spain some day. If he goes, I'd thank him for his great service to Everton & wish him all the very best...I'd be gutted though..

I hope if he does go it's just after the first home game of the season, you know, so we can give him a good send off. I think a collective spunk blast would do the trick nicely. Shotgun getting a ticket near the tunnel, so he'd hear me crying and screaming 'I love you' as I jizz myself into oblivion.

I reiterate. This thread is now rendered pointless.
 
Can someone explain to me this point that Barca are apparently using Arteta to force Arsenal's hand with Fabregas? It makes no sense. Think about it if they had been courting Arteta all pre-season and now got linked with Fabregas Moyesey will feel nothing but relief at the chance of keeping Arteta. Wenger doesnt want to sell, he will be made up if Barca give up and go after anyone else.

For me if there is any truth in it (which i doubt) and Barca want him he will be gone. They are probably the only club which moyes wouldnt get in his way and i wouldnt be surprised to see a knockdown price as well. Besides this tho it has come from a daily rag in Spain, until i we hear anything official coming out of Barca there is nothing to worry about....27 days to go until the end of this fooking xfer window, i've never wished my life away so much!

The idea is that it will put pressure Fabregas to try and force a movie early rather than wait out his three year contract. Right now, he thinks if he doesn't go this year, he'll go later. So Barca act like they've given up and then Cesc puts in a transfer request and forces wenger's hand.

They did something similar with McManaman and Rivaldo. Saying look we can sign this other guy instead if you don't get your act together and join us.

I am sorry mate but this is really thin. Alot of 2 + 2 = 5467755 if you ask me. Firstly this hasnt come fro Barca, its from a daily rag so its not realistic to think Fabregas will act on speculation. Secondly why would Fabregas suddenly put a request in at the thought of them getting Arteta. Hs situation is simple, he goes this year of the club allow it or he goes next year when his contract is run down some more and Arsenal arent in as strong a position. If he goes next year and they get Arteta now he will simply displace mikel in the pecking order because he is younger and slightly better. Seriously, if this is a ploy to force the Fabregas transfer its the weakest ploy i've ever heard

I agree. I don't believe it is a Barcelona ploy to get Fabregas at all.

But you asked for an explanation as to what people meant and I gave you one.

Fair enough mate, i just think some people believe what they want as long as it fits in with what they hope happens.

Nothing really specifically on these two, but hey.

The story is also on goal.com, same quotes. But wow - I have to say, "hopeful" inspires zero confidence in me. Does that mean he's actually *doing* something about Arteta/Pienaar? This reads to me as wishy washy and just waiting around for the players to suddenly realize Everton is the only place for them. It does not come across as business savvy at all. Just my opinion.

EDIT: I'm new. Is he normally this wishy washy?
 

Will make no difference to them in making their minds up. But firstly an offer has to be made to the club to really start stirring matters up. AS yet no offer has been made for either. Altho' in the rumour mill again makes mention of Wenger if Fab leaves for Barca.

For me Arteta is worth far more than what we got for Le$cott.

We won't get anything like that money , though .

He's 28 . Is in the last 2 years of his deal , is NOT an International , yet is worth 3 times as much as Babar TO US .
 
Just did a quick research of spanish press - Arteta barely mentioned, it's all about Mascherano, Javi Martinez, Mata and Ozil. So far, so good.
