Cesc Fabregas

The one touch pass against Burnley was fantastic, however, the one pass that always sticks out to me was Arsenal at home - Cesc lofted a long ball over 2 Arsenal defenders, with perfect weight for Diego to chest it down and lob the keeper.

You might remember this play from the 2016-17 season - this pass won the match for Chelsea

That one was quite nasty as well.  Threading the needle.  The angle from behind is crazy, too.  The ball moves like 10+ yards with the bend from right to left.

 
The first 50-100 posts on a thread i started very tentatively are amazing, mainly in the hatred we had for him before he joined :Laie_36:

Had a wee look back there myself. Rumour started in July 2013 and signed in June 2014. 46 pages of will he, won’t he. It’s happening, no it’s not. He’s going to Utd, no he going to Arsenal. 

Glad he came here.

 
My favourite cescassist was the one on his debut away at Burnley for schurrle. Unbeleivable touch and vision.

That was probably the most excited I have been for a season in long time. Mourinho back, Costa, and Fabregas in. 

So much negativity these days about the board, signings, current players, youth integration etc. 
Fabregas, terrific pass... Costaaa.... 1-1!

That piece of football is sheer poetry, not many i have ever seen could do that break that sequence down

1. Dave breaks with the ball

2. Dave passes it, with Cesc checking where costa is

3. Cesc receives the pass

4. Cesc controls, again checks Costas position

5. Sends a 50-60yd pass to a moving fwd Costa

6. Pass Delivered right onto Costas chest (much appreciation for Costa moving into that position)

7. Excellent control and skill to finish sublimely

Cesc at his very very best, Cheers @big blue

It’s a shame Costa couldn’t stay. There probably would have been several more beautiful assists by Fab.

I think Fabregas really missed playing with a top striker since Costa left. He supplied Morata a lot of great balls but... yeah.

Best thing about it for me? Listen - not to the commentary, but to the crowd. Blue blood. Magic.

One of my all time favourite Chelsea moments.

 
Sounds like he will be unveiled as a Monaco player later today, multiple reports out there that he has completed his medical
