Crucial players for a team: Arsenal (part 1)
Cesc Fabregas
Cesc Fabregas emerged from the Barcelona canter, along with Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique. But in reality it was only under the guidance of Arsene Wenger at Arsenal that he has develop into one
of world football's most adored players. Barcelona, and his previous colleagues, have accumulated a relentless campaign to persuade him to return to Camp Nou but Fabregas remains one of the Premier League's leading players at present.
A superb passer of the ball on the ground, possessor of impeccable vision and tactics to lead and create plays along the pace and tempo of Fabregas proves him as a true game winner. Possessing strong character and intellect to complement
his technical pace and becoming more powerful on front of goal, Fabregas is an all rounded player.
His highest achievement is thrusting the ball through for Andres Iniesta to score the winning goal in the World Cup final in 2010.
An FA Cup final conquest in 2005 sideways, Fabregas could have been famished of silverware in North London but he is already regarded as one of the club's modern-day achievers and has collected well over 200 appearances. The 2007-08 Young
Player of the Year, Fabregas was set up as Arsenal captain in November 2008 and has flourished in Arsenal's free-flowing arrangement as its original lynchpin.
Unlike the above mentioned Fabregas left his place of birth club Barcelona at the age of just 16 when joining Arsenal in 2003. This was to try his luck and was nothing less then a gamble that luckily paid off very fast.
After the club had became victorious in 2003-04, Wenger could not let it go without noticing the fabulous talents of Fabregas and his stunning emergence the following season. All this and fate persuaded his manager to advertise Captain
Patrick Vieira, such to have faith in the Spaniard who took the famous number four shirt.
Usually he is principally flawless but a lack of real pace is noticeable from Fabregas and can not ignored. But his pace and moves let one negative point be ignored as his charm and game highlight his worth on the ground.
This season has been no different for the player, he made a late come back after returning from the world cup, but has been back to his best ever since. His best display so far came against Braga, where he had a four star performance.
He scored two goals and set up another two. The following weekend however, he managed to pick up a hamstring injury against Sunderland.
Ever since then, he has been out of the side in hopes to recover to make it back to face Chelsea. His absence has been strongly felt by the Arsenal side, who have failed to beat Sunderland in the players absence and even went on to loose
to West Brom.
The team will be hoping that their star player and captain can make it back as soon as possible and help Arsenal get back to their winning ways.
Fabregas is only twenty three years old, but his maturity is well beyond his years. The player not only provides to the team on the pitch, but also helps the players mentally. He provides a sense of security and stability to the side,
which the rest of the squad has grown a custom too, over the years. It is safe to say, that there is no replacement for the player at the club and quite possibly never will be.
