Hello there. Over in the The Short Fuse (SBN's Arsenal Blog), there is a ongoing argument. It started with the question of whether Cesc Fabregas could be considered disloyal when he left Arsenal for Barcelona. We've been there you've been there, that's not where I'm trying to go.
Where I AM trying to go with this is that there was one poster (only ONE, mind you, in case you're thinking we're a bunch of Cesc haters) who claimed that Cesc Fabregas said on an Barca TV interview that he was primarily interested in joining Barcelona for the trophies (rather than his more commonly stated reason of being a Barca lifer). Several of us asked him for a source of proof, but he failed to provide one and simply said that it was a Catalan interview that none of us would understand. I asked him for proof anyway, and again he did not respond. He went on to say there were "many" Barcelona fans who consider Cesc Fabregas to be a glory hunter.
What I want to know from Barca fans is this: Are there questions about Fabregas's loyalty to Barcelona? Have you guys ever heard (even if it's just in a rumor mill) that Cesc provided an interview in which he said he was mostly in it for the trophies? Is there a significant group of Barcelona fans who consider Cesc to be a glory hunter? Please be truthful (as I know you will be).
Thanks you for your time. I'm getting the feeling this poster was just making stuff up, but I can only feel comfortable if I hear it from a more reliable source.
