Wishful thinking? It would be a stupid move for Fabregas. He's good, but behind Iniesta and Xavi he'd be a third string benchwarmer.

People have to start watching more than the EPL, as good as Fabregas is, hes not even close to the level of those 2 midfielders, they are arguably the best play-making midfielders in the world right now and Fabregas isnt. Will he be one day? Maybe, but it'll probably be more due to deterioration with age of the other 2 than anything else.

Case in point:

Hill-Wood also said he did not think a return to Barcelona was in Fabregas's best interest, because of the competition he would face from the likes of Andres Iniesta and Xavi.



"If you want my opinion, I'm not sure he would even get in their team," he stated.
