It looks like Adios Arsenal, Senor Fibreglass is on the move...for a price and the tag reads ?40,000,000 to prise him from the 4 years that remain on his ?80,000 per week contract, and Arsenal will hold out for a club record transfer fee, after all Kayoko is spot on when pointing out ?Fabby? is happy and settled at the Emirates....which does not fully explain why Fabregas returned on Monday and told Wenger he felt his future lies with Barcelona....What could have prompted the dramatic change of heart?.... well the ?80,000,000 Real Madrid paid for Ronaldo certainly prompted Fabby at 23 to feel he is an undervalued asset at Arsenal also Barcelona is keen to dispense with the services of ?180,000 per week flop Zlatan Ibrahimovic and is keen to do a swap deal, but Arsenal will never pay Ibrahimovic?s inflated wages, so the swap is probably a non starter, but the prevailing economic conditions will see Arsenal instead move on value for money signings an example would be Melo from Juventus....

I believe Fabregas has spotted a opportunity going begging to return to Barcelona where at 16 he was a integral part of a youth team that nurtured fond memories, and with possible vastly improved financial prospects on offer Fabregas has made his move, with the world cup looming in South Africa, like a vast shop window to showcase skills Fabregas has in abundance, never has there been a better strategy to effect change ....

One day Jose M will disappear up his own backside head first, it is a racing certainty the ?special one? will coach Real Madrid, Inter are poised to make a offer to Rafa Benitez to move to Italy, as soon as Jose M get his act together....

Holland with Sneijder, Van Persie and Robben are amongst the favourites to reach the final but I do agree Mr K their ability to defend is suspect, Boulahrouz, Braafheid, Van Bronckhorst and Heitinga have wooden legs and a tendency to succumb to prolong bouts of ball gazing, and Germany like England will provide the world cup with some hilarious ?on golden pond? moments.....

FiFa have promised round the clock security for the tournament, so unless Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden decide to shave of their face foliage they won?t make it through passport control..... Besides I hear that the African Boer Goat population numbering over 200,000 are particularly nervous after hearing that Al Qaeda activists wear robes... normally a fully grown Boer Goat can hear a zipper from a mile away ...
