ARSENE WENGER hailed Cesc Fabregas as his Paul Scholes after the Spanish starÂ’s stunning performance against Portsmouth.
The Arsenal chief insists the playmaker can be the inspiration for a serious assault on the title.
After Fabregas had scored for a second successive match in the 3-1 win at the Emirates, Wenger said: “Cesc is very like Paul Scholes of Manchester United. He uses his brain and is intelligent in the game.
“He has exceptional passing ability and he knows how to time his runs to get into the box and he’s only 20!”
Fabregas scored only two Premier League goals last term but has matched that already — and Wenger reckons it is down to a tape he showed him.
He revealed: “I made a tape of Cesc’s games last season and you would not believe how many chances he had in some of them.
“Some games he’d have three chances but I knew his touch in front of goal would come back. He scored a lot of goals at youth level.”
He's just twenty. i wonder how good will he be if he's 25. But why paul scholes?
