In fact, I'm surprised he actually let him do it. Strange but his form after the first 20 games dipped last season, he hasn't even got going this season. Maybe he's burnt out already? in Wengers words, I didn’t see it. In fact, I’m surprised he actually let him do it.

Last season, at the peak of his forms, we got The Cesc Fabregas Show on Sky. Anyone else see it? It was a stinker. A proper stinker. It was such a blatant and awful stunt by his agent and Nike (the show's sponsors, no less) to give him a global branding like Beckham's. It was essentially the player revelling in his own fame and Arsenal fans patting themselves on the back for having one surviving talent in the team since Henry's departure. I really can't see a repeat of it any time soon with his side's current plight, even having made captain. One player you touched on who really hit a nerve for me is Cesc Fabregas.

I watched a program the other day where girls (I won’t use the words I was shouting at the TV) look for footballers and the rich and famous, they hang out the training grounds or they look for expensive cars then leave their phone numbers on the players windscreen with a little message. These parasites live in Mayfair and have design gear & cars all paid for by rich blokes. All they have to do do shag a footballer then they become famous, Rebecca loos for example. The word dignity does not compute with these horrible sad individuals, it’s a sad reflection on society. Couldn’t agree more, the WAG culture has been really bad for our game.

Now I understand why Victoria Adams and David backham are a celeb couple, both were famous in their own right, but the way that half fit birds are now getting engaged to any player they can find then using it as a bid for stardom is tragic. First we had WAGS boutique on the telly, with women linked to players as high profile as Mark Bircham and Justin Hoyte, and now we have somebody in a jungle claiming to be famous because she shares a bed with Joe Cole. At least footballers, in general, earn their fame and status in an increasingly popular game, these women are quite quite pathetic....
