20 thoughts on “Fabregas v Ronaldo – Steal and Perfect Assist!”

  1. ☆ My Favourite Player of All Time:

    ● Fabregas was 17 years old during virtually the entirety of his breakthrough season of 04/05 and made 33 league appearances (24 starts) in a side just off the back of winning the previous seasons league without losing a game, finished 2nd in that current campaign and won the FA Cup. Just let that sink in. Absolutely frightening 😲.

    ● Youngest Arsenal goalscorer:
    (16 years 212 days v Wolves Dec 2003)

    Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in League:
    (17 years 113 days v Blackburn Aug 2004)

    Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in Europe:
    (17 years 217 days v Rosenborg Dec 2004)

    ● Only he and Evan Ferguson have 10+ goals/assists to their names as 18 year olds in the Premier League era who weren't from England. Had to get that one in as an Irishman 😄.

    ● Statistics show that in the five years prior to Fàbregas's departure from Arsenal, Fàbregas created 466 goal-scoring chances, made 86 assists and scored 48 goals, all three statistics topping those of new teammates Xavi and Andrés Iniesta, despite both having made more appearances in the same period.

    ● 09/10 League Season: Apps: 27
                                                  Goals: 15
                                                  Assists: 15

    Who knows what numbers he would have finished with that season if he'd avoided a few niggling injuries during the first half of that campaign and not fractured his leg to Barca in March and been ruled out for the remainder of the season. I've no doubt that he would have comfortably broken the record of 20 assists in a PL season and, in all likelihood, would have 20+ League goals to his name alongside it. All from CM at 22 years of age in his second season as club captain as well, it's worth noting.

    ● All-time leader in history of assists for Spanish national team.     

    ● Most assists as a CM in the 21st century ahead of the likes of Lampard, Gerrard, Iniesta & Xavi.

    ● Only Cesc & KDB have recorded 10+ assists in 6 separate seasons in PL era.                             

    ● 3rd All Time Leader in assists in PL history, behind only Ryan Giggs, who spent 10.5 more seasons than him in the PL & KDB, who both played in far more dominant sides than Cesc ever did. It's also worth noting that 70 of Cesc's 111 assists in the Prem came from the age of 17-23. He could have easily broken the record if he'd spent his entire career in England.

    ● Made captain of Arsenal at the tender age of 21 as well. He was absolute magic.

  2. Incredible steal by Fabregas on Ronaldo. He robbed the best player in the world. This was a special moment at Old Trafford. What a goal by Adebayor. Lovely finish. The pass through from Fabregas was quality

  3. Dude would have become one of the best if he never left Arsenal. That team was built to suit his style of play.
    Wenger confidently told him to play anywhere he feels he can be dangerous to the opponent…..zero restrictions….just flow ❤
