@Wrighty4 Man, thanks for that . Just looked this up
He was so clinical. Such a shame he got that injury!

Fabregas has laser pointed in his face as he misses penalty for Spain... while Chelsea boss Mourinho watches on in Kiev
Cesc Fabregas missed his fourth penalty in as many attempts at international level as Spain beat Ukraine 1-0 in their final Euro 2016 qualifier. Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho watched on in Kiev as the midfielder, who was having a laser pointed in his face as he stepped up to the spot, was captaining his country on his 100th appearance.

cesc made a bad decision moving to chelsea over arsenal the way chelsea play is making cesc look more rubbish I've no doubt that if he had came back to us he would be the best cm in the league rn, Arsène is the only manager that brings out the best in cesc@redanddread agreed, it's just the speed of the transformation. He was never the quickest player but now he looks as slow as Arteta. I wanted us to sell Santi or Wilshere and buy Cesc back but right now I'm glad we didn't, maybe he'll turn it around soon.
I bet you he is regretting that decision he took in 2011. His form ? the system Chelsea play. He operates best with ball playing midfielders around him playing a string of passes and finally sending a through ball.
Mourinho is hell bent on him longing it and hoping one of hazard, pedro, oscar or costa latch onto it for an assist. I feel bad for him sometimes, meant to be part of a orchestra, ended up playing for those lot and I can't even classify them into a genre.
Look at his performances for us that last season, and his first season for Barca, absolute magic. I remember the comment that he was actually worth 60 million and not the 35 million paid.
He regrets his decision, I have no doubt about that. They may find their way back to the title, who knows. But he will never be a king, like he was here.
Call m dramatic, **** it. This is what he reminds me of.

I'm no longer a fan but that's ridiculous.
Why has Cesc's form dropped so dramatically? It's only 10 months ago he was the most creative force in the PL, he nearly broke the assists record. And now he's averaging 78 percent pass accuracy per game. Are teams targeting him more knowing he's looking to play through balls from deep?
Every single Chelsea player's form has dropped dramatically, it's just that the media and some Chelsea fans are using Cesc as a conveniently scapegoat while trying to sidestep criticizing Hazard/Costa/Matic. Who's form had dropped far more than Cesc did. People are in denial if they think the sacking of Mourinho is avoidable because he's obviously doing something that's making the Chelsea players not want to give a damn.
He really wasn't that good in that first Barca season, in fact he struggled compared to the others around him in what was a very poor year for Barca.
With us I think he peaked in terms of performance around 2008/09. Still think he'd have been world class if we kept him but around the back end of last year he looked dodgy, now it's almost sad if it wasn't so funny.
Yeah, I remember thinking it was a poor career choice from him considering Xavi and Iniesta were the 2nd and 3rd best players in the world, if not number 1 and 2. His decline is undeniably linked to his departure from Arsenal. Our system was built for him - we played to all his strengths and in turn he made us a better team. No other team will offer him that again, unless of course he wants to go to Stoke.He was constantly being benched and second guessed by probably the best midfield to grace a football pitch. He was short sighted and did not look at it practically or from a footballing sense, going back to Barca in 2011. Decided with his heart and sadly paid for it.
