My Favourite Player of All Time: ● Fabregas was 17 years old during virtually the entirety of his breakthrough season of 04/05 and made 33 league appearances (24 starts) in a side just off the back of winning the previous seasons league without losing a game, finished 2nd in that current campaign and won the FA Cup. Just let that sink in. Absolutely frightening 😲. ● Youngest Arsenal goalscorer: (16 years 212 days v Wolves Dec 2003) Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in League: (17 years 113 days v Blackburn Aug 2004) Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in Europe: (17 years 217 days v Rosenborg Dec 2004) ● Only he and Evan Ferguson have 10+ goals/assists to there names as 18 year olds in the Premier League era who weren't from England. Had to get that one in as an Irishman 😄. ● Statistics show that in the five years prior to Fàbregas's departure from Arsenal, Fàbregas created 466 goal-scoring chances, made 86 assists and scored 48 goals, all three statistics topping those of new teammates Xavi and Andrés Iniesta, despite both having made more appearances in the same period. ● 09/10 League Season: Apps: 27 Goals: 15 Assists: 15 Who knows what numbers he would have finished with that season if he'd avoided a few niggling injuries during the first half of that campaign and not fractured his leg to Barca in March and been ruled out for the remainder of the season. I've no doubt that he would have comfortably broken the record of 20 assists in a PL season and in all likelihood would have 20+ League goals to his name alongside it. All from CM at 22 years of age in his second season as club captain as well it's worth noting. ● All time leader in history of assists for Spanish national team. ● Most assists as a CM in the 21st century ahead of the likes of Lampard, Gerrard, Iniesta & Xavi. ● Only player in PL era to record 10+ assists in 6 separate seasons. ● 2nd All Time Leader in assists in PL history to Ryan Giggs who spent 9 and a half more seasons than him in the PL . ● Made captain of Arsenal at the tender age of 21 as well. He was absolute magic.
My favourite player growing up to he really pushed a average arsenal side for years was heartbroken when he left but would never fault him for going home to barca
@@dbs7932My only problem is that he should have gone back to Barca when Xavi or Iniesta was about retiring when he would have started at Barcelona not a bench surplus
As a Chelsea fan I saw him coming through Arsenal ranks and was very surprised he moved to Barca. I knew instantly when Arsenal turned down the chance to re-sign him that Chelsea had bagged themselves a ridiculous deal at roughly £30m Honestly one of the best midfielders I ever got to see play for the blues, his creativity is unrivalled in my opinion, and he was the missing piece after Mata left for Utd. Had the pleasure of seeing him score and assist live at the Bridge. I've been intrigued by this Como move/project and wish him all the best. Got a feeling that his attitude, multilingual ability and his football intelligence will make him an excellent manager. Best of luck Cesc!!
wheres his chelsea achievemtns…. Classic assnql fans being self centrered
Forgot about the two PL titles he won 🤔
Thanks Mr Hartono..greetings from Indonesia..Amazing club..Como 1907❤
Como is actually gorgeous, been there once on a road trip to Milan and it is so peaceful and natural
Bless your heart
It’s like Beverly Hills a rich people town
I am a Como Football fan, and I am a citizen of the city of Como. I like Cesc, I like him as a person and a coach, many have accepted this change, hoping that our team can grow together with Cesc and return to a great team like it once was. Forza Como and Forza Cesc 💙 C'mon Como!!
I visited the summer of last year and walked around for a few days. It is a beautiful city. Unfortunately I went during a heat wave so the lake was very low, but that was beautiful too. Scenic
What you mean with great team @ludmillo
Semoga dengan diakusisi pengusaha Indonesia🇲🇨🇲🇨, COMO semakin berkembang dan menjadi vlub sepak bola terbaik di Eropa bahkan dunia...FORZA COMO
@@SardissimoITA Como berkembang sangat pesat, dari Seri C promosi ke Seri B dalam waktu singkat, di seri B dalam dua tahun, Como berada dipapan atas klasemen (2nd), punya kesempatan besar promosi ke Seri A, betapa sangat bagus team Como ini? Finansial bagus, punya akademi sepak bola yang menawarkan memiliki nilai lebih... Saya yakin dalam 5 tahun ke depan, Como bisa jadi klub besar di Italia...
Your hope for Como will materialize bro, dont worry. Hartono family had been well known for their love in Badminton in Indonesia since ages, they build club that generating Badminton World Champion, All England, Thomas Cup, etc even upto Olympic medal champion for Badminton. They love to nurture the talent, and invest to a player if possible, exactly like they did now in Como (putting Denis Wise, Infrastructure, and so on)
We visited the club for their last match & they genuinely have passionate fans. Really hope they can sneak promotion to Serie A this year!
love you thogden- Merry Christmas!
SNEAK? They are bloody third
take anyones gloves at that game?
Has a Football italia C4 lover I want Parma back up and Venezia second but would be happy for Como to make it through the play offs v Palermo
Thanks Djarum, considering what they did with Indonesian badminton, Hartonos' are serious in sports. Dennis Wise works with Garuda select had been great as well. Hope they succeed from Indonesia.
Merry Christmas to everyone
Merry Christmas 🎅
That’s got nothing to do with this video. I’m triggered, I’ve come to see my hero’s talk about a small Italian football club. Not to be wished a Merry Christmas. What has this world come to.
Do one
Merry Christmas ❤
Merry Christmas 🤶 😊
Como is really going hard with their Cesc promo. I love how Arteta got both him and Wilshere back at Arsenal but I didn't know Cesc already had the Como jib while coaching the Arsenal academy
Looks like the stadium is literally positioned along the banks of the Lago Como! A fan couldn't have asked for better. If the football is drab, just turn your neck the other way and enjoy the stellar, scenic beauty! Merry Xmas 🎉🎉🎉
Check out the docu series Como 1907. There’s an interesting conflict between the blue collar people that live in Como and all the luxury resorts and homes that surround the area
@@sdot5389 hmm.
Massive respect to him. He's started at the right level and has a bright footballing brain. Hope he does well and progresses his career step by step!
They do it the right way. Retire and begin coaching career at smaller clubs. Meanwhile England have Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney getting jobs for their name and ruining good teams.
Hyperbole
Fact.
He is right tbf. @@matt92550
nah its facts@@matt92550
That is why English coaches are widely regarded as the worst in the world because they get jobs purely on their playing career and who they know and not their coaching ability. That is why there are so few black coaches in England because it purely about connections in England.
As an Arsenal die hard( 100%) i am so proud of 2 of our best ever Thiery the legend and Cesc the midfield maestro and i strongly believe that by the time Mikel moves on ( hopefully not less than 5 to 6yrs) Cesc will one day become Our Manager ( Arsenal forever) congrats Thiery and Cesc
My 2 FAV O.A.T too.
Cesc's understanding of football plus his passion for it will soon make him one if the elite managers at top level.
London, Barcelona, Monaco, Como - the lads lived well
Really strategic bastards. That stadium location mahn. Good for them though.
It's prime real estate.
Great report!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the bit about tactics and philosophy. 🎉
Great content. Cesc seems so humble
Bravo Arsene Wenger, from your players, the following resumed coaching: Arteta, Wilshere, Henry, Fabregas, Freddy et al.
Cesc will do well in management if clubs are patient with him. He understands midfield play perfectly so it's about building the right squad for his style of football.
i Live about 25 minutes from Lake Como and it's beautiful. Close to Milanello
My tie is from Lake Como. I love the place. I went on holibobs a long time ago there. Good luck to the legends.
Edu, Mikel, and Arsenal knew they would be challenged in the first 2 years, and there was covid, too. He told them how long it might take to set up the culture with young players. Mikel is different if you're different, you're different.
With the way Fabregas played football there was a player with brains that will make a decent manager in the future... It is good to see him learn more and would love to see him in a bigger stage.
Wow. Sky actually still produce good content 👍 enjoyed this one
Arsenal and como should arrange a pre season friendly ahead of next season 🤝
Was there to watch Gillingham win 1-0 in a pre season friendly. Had a brilliant Time. Really nice place como too.
Well looks like Como FC is my new fave club in Europe. Best of luck guys, Forza Como!

@@goodgamewellplayed1165no, he’s a multi-billionaire
Ozil?

Wicked I have a fifa career with como on the verge of promotion to serie a hopefully they can do it for real
Two of my favourite Arsenal and Barca 🎉
💙🤍 Da Lariano (abitante intorno al lago di Como), sono orgoglioso di Cesc e del progetto e come allenatore e persona mi piace molto, è umile e silenzioso il giusto. Sarebbe bello vederlo in panchina con noi se facciamo il salto!💪 E' una situazione in continuo fermento e cambiamenti, anche noi siamo destabilizzati.... però è bello tutto ciò, sembra di essere tornati ai magici anni 80 della Serie A quando il Como se la giocava costantemente con le grandi in partite combattute, e il Sinigaglia straripava di gente....che immagini. Forza Como.
No one is talking about the impact that Osian Roberts has had on football. He was critical for the Welsh resurgence alongside Gary Speed and is having the same influence here.
Well done Cesc and Thierry!
It's great that Fabregas is starting from the bottom. That way, he'll learn quite a lot from management. Good luck to him.
That is true, unlike some after 1 season of lower division team and jump straight to top PL team.
@@glennchua9043 Lampard was so awesome, Chelsea brought him in twice lmao
Not quite the bottom. Como is now one of the most organized clubs in Italy. The current owners Đarum have made a long-term project to get to Serie A and stay there. that can only happen with a plan on and off the field. they have money, but they wanted long-term sustainability with quality people like Dennis Wise Henry, etc.
@@sangueblu8383It's bottom when it's outside the Serie A for me.
Mainly because he hasn't got his UEFA qualifications
Cesc is such a baller!
Best of luck me legend, Fabregas. I am sure you will be a great manager.
Good Luck! no doubt we will hear about them in future on a bigger stage as a club.
Festive drinking game: Take a shot every time someone says "project"
Cesc fabregas arsenal’s last born ❤so special to us
I am passionate about this team and these colors. You can still see football as it once was, passionate fans attached to their city, sometimes it seems like you are seeing old English football. Foza Como
He’s got the brain for it. Next Arsenal manager. Mikel is inspiring a new generation.
Fábregas has been a manager for about as long as Arteta lol what waffle
The beauty of the place
One of the all time intelligent one 2 touch baller
What a beautiful place, can see the attraction
Let’s go, Cesc. Buzzing for him. I know him and Dennis will get Como to Serie A
They are a few points away from getting promoted. Almost over the line.
Will they build a new stadium? I guess a 25.000 seater seems perfect.
I think their stadium location is just perfect. Full scale renovation is the best choice they have.
@@keluargacangkir the location is terrible. its way too far from the city
They've just hired Osian Roberts. Worth a read about his past. Morocco world cup run, Wales to the Euros semi finals, praise from Vieira and Henry when they did their coaching qualifications with him.
I have my concerns mainly because I saw Dennis wise standing inbetween them so Joe kannier be incoming soon
wow, awesome guy
Brilliant Christmas gift from sky sports🎉
My Favorite player
It's either after you retire yo do just like Arteta and be assistant coach for a good time until you switch to becoming a coach. Retiring and going straight as a coach don't always work out well. Rooney, lampard, Terry I believe it's too early for them. Look at xabi Alonso he took some time to learn before becoming a coach and was an assistant at some point now he winning with leverkusen.
The King of football scanning.
3:25 Dennis Wise looking tanned there
is this a part 1?
Let Cesc cook, he’ll soon be up there. You can see the hunger in him, almost reminds me of Arteta in a way
Both have similariites that they went Barcelona from Arsenal.
So? Are u saying that Arsenal small club?
@@Ibrahim-nf6yhWhy are you so triggered.... he didn't say anything wrong.
@@DshafinX Only club to win the league unbeaten? 😅
@@Ibrahim-nf6yhWhat ? You're making no sense.
There’s something unique about the Spaniards as club managers. Xavi Alonso, Pepe, Arteta, Unai
Xavi 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@alb7568 Xavi is a great manager leave him alone 😭
Dennis Wise is also the club president.
And Dennis Wise!
Menyala abangku 🔥🔥🔥🔥
0:07 what a view😍
London, Barcelona, Monaco and Como. Cesc had his head switched on.
Cesc on Fifa Manager mode.
Merry Christmas Lads💙
Merry xmas pal
cool content
Sons of Arsene 😊
Como FC dimiliki oleh pengusaha dari 🇲🇨🇲🇨Indonesia, Djarum Group melalui anak perusahaaanya SENT yg berbadis di London.... Semoga bisa segera promosi di seri A.... FORZA COMO 💪💪💪
Norakkk overproud
Merry Christmas everyone
cesc is destined to success
Thanks for Michael Hartono for investing in this "diamond" club. I hope Dennis Wise and Fabregas could work together last long.
Norakk
Wish Birmingham had signed Fabregas as our manager, seems to have more knowledge than Rooney 😂😂
Thierry Henry the premier league goat
I hope como 1907 try to connecting with indonesian perhaps they can start to expand their fans
Cesc will be the next top manager and I'm sure when Busquets decides to take that step he will also be a hit
Stop taking wishful thinking as a foundation for convictions.
@stnbch3025 congratulations pal on the most stupid comment of the year. You've just about nicked it with only a few days to go
Ar..senal Ar..senal Ar..senal! Thx for the memories Cesc!
Como Level Up otw Seria A, from Djarum Indonesia
Djarum Como
Meeerrry Christmas Y'all. From Jamaica to the world
merry christmas dude
arsenal legends..
Como estas!
maria looks like apolonia lapiedra. hope henry and cesc did a dp
14:18 - knut
As hard as it is to admit I still have a soft spot for Fabregas despite of what he did from an Arsenal fan’s perspective. He was my favourite player as a kid
Forza como 🇮🇩
As true football fan you can see someone’s who is a genius at the game and I can see this guy we’ll achieve a lot good luck in his career
What a load of self-glorifying rubbish.
Good morning my neighbor!
Hi
When I see Cesc Fabregas remain me to the TITANIC MoVIE star, which was the antagonist one, enemy of Leonardo De Caprio. 😁😁😁😁
Why is klopp and arteta in the same conversation ? What has arteta won ?
The Chelsea influence
He has similar manner to Arteta
COYG ..ONCE A GUNNER ALLWAYS A GUNNER # FACTS
He will be Chelsea's manager in 2026, mark my words
Cesc is not the manager anymore. He failed to present a coaching license. He is still working beyond the scenes
Im getting old very first,if i watched Cesc making his debut in ARSENAL & now hes retired growing white hair 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 +254 KENYA
All my favorite football either turn coach or go into media .. or just chill at home getting fat ..LOL
Fascinating to see ex-footballers investing back into the game - cesc/titi, becks, class of 92, demba ba/hazard, etc. Hope this trend continues to grow. It's nice to see a different pathway for club ownerships. Getting tired of the same state-owned narratives.
Como is owned by an Indonesian tobacco company.
@@vbn2678 yes djarum. cesc and henry are minority shareholders
@@CatGPT_Thats the long term goal of the Hartonos, initially they planned to have garuda select base to be in Como, when they bought it. But because of changed Italian regulations, garuda select was moved to England ofc because of Dennis Wise. If only they could, they could be focusing just in Como.
THOGDEN
Time for a new football manager save....
Tooting for his team to head to Serie A!
