Fabregas: Leaving Arsenal was the hardest thing I ever did

Cesc Fabregas was in the transfer-lime light throughout the summer. Premier League champions Manchester United chased the Spain international till the very end and went public about their desire (including the bids) to sign him. Whether there was any hint from the player is unknown, but in the end the deal didn’t materialize and Fabregas remained at the Catalan club.

Expensive? Ronaldo and Bale fees nearly equal entire Barcelona squad

It irks to think that Ronaldo and Bale have jointly cost Real Madrid a figure close enough to buy the entire Barcelona squad. It really irks. La Liga is a two-horse race between Real Madrid and Barcelona. We all know that. The mode of operation of both the clubs are completely different. We also know that. Real Madrid is the world’s most glamorous club and are sitting cozy at the pinnacle of the money league table since times immemorial. Yes, we do know that too.
