Reports today that Chelsea will look to offload Fabregas and part of his wages in January on loan. Only considered a bit-part, impact sub in Contes plans.
What do you reckon? Would he want to come here for 6 months?
I think he'd make an excellent addition to the team in Europe when (if) we qualify for the knock-out stages. He'd be pretty much guaranteed a wad of game time.

Where exactly would you play him without rearranging our whole approach though? In the number 10 role? In a midfield 2 with Drinkwater? And this is if he even wanted to come in the first place, which I'm 99% certain he wouldn't.
I can't see it myself.

I think that's quite pertinent though as, and I may be wrong, there is no-one in the squad who can do what Drinkwater can???

He is only 26, great player to get in in my humble opinion

Definitely worth targeting then. He was great for Southampton and I could imagine him doing a similar job here.

I think a midfield 2 of Schneiderlin and DD would be quite interesting and exciting to watch.

Robbing Hoody - Certainly he wouldn't be brought in to replace Drinkwater, who's one of the first names on the team sheet right now and seems to start every match regardless of travel or fitness. But the two players around him - either Amartey or King next to him or Okazaki in front of him recently - are the kind of players who are doing the dirty work rather than controlling and illuminating the game like Fabregas would want to. I can't imagine Fabregas would be content to (or arguably be able to) close down, defend and force opponents wide for long periods week after week.

Cescpit would balk at the prospect. He would be more suited to Swansea or The Spanners

He doesn't wanna leave London. Could see him at West Ham as they seem to have more money than sense. Kinda sad to see how his career panned out, at Arsenal he has it all and looked like he was going to become one of the world's greatest

Rubbish in the second half of the season at both Barca and Chelsea, therefore not the type of player we need IMO.

I really rate Fabregas but he only fits in certain systems and ours is not one of them.
Schneiderlin would be class but highly unlikely. He'd be more likely to go to a Spurs or Everton than us.
