I firmly believe that Chelsea is the best choice. They match my footballing ambitions with their hunger and desire to win trophies…
— Cesc Fàbregas Soler (@cesc4official) June 12, 2014
He said: ‘Firstly I would like to thank everyone at FC Barcelona where I enjoyed three wonderful years. It was my childhood club and I will always be proud and honoured that I had a chance to play for such a great team.
‘I do feel that I have unfinished business in the Premier League and now is the right time to return.
‘I considered all the other offers very carefully and I firmly believe that Chelsea is the best choice. They match my footballing ambitions with their hunger and desire to win trophies. They have an amazing squad of players and an incredible manager. I am fully committed to this team and I can’t wait to start playing.’
Arsenal didn’t want him back so Jose signed him. Enjoy trolling your Arsenal friends today. KEEP CALM AND TRUST JOSE!!!

Signing of the summer?Feebacks!!!
Perfect signing or bad signing?
We are winning next season!!.Welldone Chelsea!
After the signing of makalele & lampard,this stands 2 be the best signing cfc has made in 10yrs.right now am the happiest man on earth.i go 4 fab/matic as the best pivot 4 cfc.we hav bought the key 2 unlock the defenc of teams that pack the bus against us.i ve alwaz wishd 4 fab 2 play 4 cfc.up jose u are the best as far as i know.
I agree 100perccent with zyte. Fab is a good biz. For us. Let’s see him in blue next season
I do believe we have a new name combo here…Fab-Matic!!
Gr8 signing. Sell Ramires and buy Modric and our midfield becomes awesome..
@ miles.i was so hapy.since dis rumor came up,i couldnt hold my breath cos i was seriously prayn dat dis deal wil go 4 us cost i also heard dat m.city was involvd.but finaly it has hapned.jose realy knew wat he want.i cant wait 4 epl 2 start.waitn 4 d completion of costa’s deal.even tores wil score more goal.jose is the man & cfc blue is the colour dat suits every ambitious man.ktbffh.
Fab in Chelsea at last ? Can anyone remember when he wanted to fight Lamps in the FA Cup Semi Finals in 2007? So He would later after 7yrs come to replace that Lamps, Wow! Football is just awesome, so Interesting….. I just can’t wait to see this Fantastic Fab playing in Blue next season….. Arsenal Fans are all Stinkers for calling Him a traitor because he signed for us, Barca want to sell Arsenal dont want to buy and they dont want him to sign for us what should he do Retire at 27?….. This Lad has come to shine and be a part of great History we about to start making and make them cry with sublime performances…… KTBFFH!!!
i fink nw chelsea we dnt hav ani excuse if we dnt win treble nxt season…wid COSTA, FAB, HAZARD, OSCAR, SCHURLLE, MATIC, WILLIAN, TORRES, SALAH, RAMIREZ, wat else…? LONG LIV DA BLUEZ!!!
Fab- Matic combo. Costa is next.
I’ll be ready to pouce on all those pro-mourinhos who’ll ready to come up with excuses to defend mou should we go trophyless next season
Wow. Great fan. Waiting for us to go trophyless just to “pounce” on us and proove your point. Congrats.
Exactly the rubbish attitude of some chelsea fans. Just support ur team. Yu want chelsea to go trophyless so that yu will say it is mou’s fault. Probably bcos he sold mata. Grow up. R yu supporting chelsea or not? Mou has no excuse for failure we all agree but don’t take it as far as saying we shd go trophyless. We are chelsea. Win, lose or draw. Fabregas wld make our team stronger whether yu want to believe or not. We cld not break down small teams that parked the bus last season, fab is who we need. On paper, mou got this one spot on.
Great ONE. Good signing. There is now doubt Fab is a great player, and I am happy we have him. Costa next! Blue is the colour.
@ anonymous.how can a fan be indirectly wishing his own team 2 go trophyles just 2 prove a point.hmmh!!.unbelieveble.lets bury sentiments & cheer jose & boy 2 a trophy ladden 2014/2015 season.
Just on the building rumours of a Real Madrid wanting Ramires for a swap with Khedira. I would keep Ramires everytime over a injury-prone Khedira.
Good signing. Ramir should not be sold. Only if Madrid want to exchange with Modrich!
“should we go trophyless” is a conditional statement…no room for excuses next season with all these players we’ve bought….
After we have Fab, I don’t think we have finished our shopping. We still need 2-3 more world class strikers as we have only Diego Costa in the frontline. Seems Torres, Eto and Ba will go and Lukaku will be sold. And we have to find a world class LB, hope Mou to take action on getting Daly Blind instead of Fil Luis.
we dont need to buy LB. We have Van anlot and Bentrand.both world clas…LUKaku and torres wil stay..mikel sold and Bamford promoted
VanAnholt and Bertrand are world class ?? Dont kidding. Did they fly to Brazil now playing the world cup. We need a real world class LB camparing with A Cole 8 years ago.
i doubt Fabregas will be playing at the pivot if we get Toni Kroos as romoured this morning, this is going to be a world class Chelsea team, we should really be getting a Left Back also, Shaw has potential but is way too expensive, a CB wouldnt be a necessity if we got a LB as Ivanovic can double up as a RB and CB. Jose please keep Lukaku and give some of the youngsters a chance in the cup games such as the FA cup and League cup early stages.
