Fabregas played well for Barça prior to Neymar's arrival as either a false nine or in a more traditional midfielder role. Now, with Alexis and Pedro relegated to the bench and Iniesta always being the better player, there's really no place for Fabregas.

Neymar's value has plummeted despite a fairly decent season. I remember reading that his value would have been even more astronomical if he would have stayed at Santos up until the World Cup where he would be the first great Brazilian playing for a Brazilian club during a World Cup (let alone Brazil's World Cup) since Pele and Garrincha.

I would love either Alexis or Pedro.

Did it really? If Barca gave him back to his dad tomorrow, I think someone else still pays big for him.

ETA: Raul is apparently signing for the Cosmos. Going to buy my tickets now.

i don't mean fab is bad, but yeah with iniesta and xavi, fab doesn't have many options to start without injury

he was a centerpiece for arsenal, too
