Hola Cesc!
Te deseo una feliz Navidad y un prospero Año Nuevo.
Tambien te escribo para decirte que tengas mucho ánimo y que siempre
mires para arriba porque el tiempo pasa super rapido y cuando veas ya
vas a estar jugando otra vez con el Arsenal.
Sos un gran jugador y desde que te vi jugar por primera vez en el Arsenal
me dà cuenta de que ibas a brillar mucho y mirate, ahora sos uno de los mejores
del mundo.
Sabemos que para el Arsenal es un golpe muy duro haber perdido no solo un
jugador si no a su nuevo capitan, pero espero que a el equipo le vaya muy
bien y que vos sigas apoyandolos aunque sea fuera del campo.
Como seguidora del Arsenal en la Premier League y de la Seleccion Española
tene por seguro que siempre te voy a apoyar y que desde Guatemala vas a

Taavi from Estonia:)
No se podÃa estar mas apenado con lo de tu lesión y espero de mucho corazón que te recuperes de la manera mas rápida y adecuada posible, tomatelo con calma y descuida ya que tus compañeros del Arsenal darán un plus por tu ausencia ya que es sumamente dÃficil porque nadie juega mejor de mediocampista.
Ãnimo Fabregas, hacia adelantey toma esto como un desafÃo ya que cada desafÃo siempre lo superas porque tienes alma de campeón.

Hola Cesc,
Though I've not written to you for a long time, I'm alway there backing you and Arsenal. I collect your news and information from any possible way, the newspapers,magazines,and internet. When I heard you were injuried, I was shocked there and terribly sad, for a quite long time I didn't know what to do. After becoming calm down, I told myself and now I want to tell you, everything will be good, take care of yourself during the 4months, for yourself and for people who love you. No matter what happens,we will be there beside you and Arsenal, we can defend anything with our braveness.
Besides it is 2009 now, Happy new year! And wish you all the best.Looking forwards your returning on the pitch ASAP. Go Arsenal! Zhu Jihong(China)

Victoria Guerrero C
¡Hola Cesc! Me alegra que tu recuperación sea más corta de lo que en un principio se pensaba. Es una pena no poder disfrutar de un jugador como tú en la liga española... A veces hay que hacer méritos fuera para ser profeta en tu tierra y tú has logrado con tu visión de juego y tu particular manera de ver el fútbol que hoy dÃa se pueda disfrutar de un auténtico jugador que no se tira al suelo ni pierde de vista el balón. Llevo jugando a fútbol y viendo partidos desde que nacà hará 26 años y realmente disfruto viéndote jugar. Espero que tengas unas buenas navidades dentro de lo que cabe y verás cómo pronto se pasa este tiempo de \"relax\". Un saludo y mucho ánimo de una seguidora Extremeña.
Hi, Cesc!
I was shocked when I heard about your injury. Get well soon! All your
supporters always with you!

Dear Captain,
I know well–wishing won\'t make tissue grow faster, but maybe it helps stop the pain a
bit. March–April seems a long way away, but hopefully it will speed by and you will
be back on the pitch. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I hope you have a
wonderful New Year...and whatever other holidays people celebrate in the UK and
Spain. :–) Obtenga bien pronto capitan.

Dear Cesc,
Just want to let you know that youâre in all us gooners thoughts, hearts and
prayers and weâre all hoping and wishing for your speedy recovery. This must be
extremely frustrating for you, but if possible, stay strong and be positive!
I remember an interview you gave to Football Focus a few weeks back about how much
you admired Eduardo because he was able to remain happy and calm about his injury. We
all hope youâll have the same spirit as him and work hard towards your comeback!
Look on the bright side; hereâs the time for you to rest, recharge and in a few
months, return to the pitch where you belong as Arsenal captain
As for Arsenal, donât worry. To coin a common phrase, âArsene knows.â
Rest well, take your mind off football for a bit (if possible) and get back to having
fun like a normal 21–year–old. We all love you, hot stuff!
Love,
Samantha.
Tess in London

Cesc!!
The news fell like a jug of cold water over each holds a heart that
Cannon, however small. On the eve of Christmas, the Gunners knew that our
Captain would remain away from us for at least three months. We feel the
concern about his absence from the pitch and also suffered pain
you can not fight with the team in recent months as major of the season.
All those who look with pride and the Emirates Highbury recall with nostalgia
felt that the injury Cesc, his team lost more than one player.
Vacation time is a time of contemplative life, and this allows time
meditation. Do you really going to be without Cesc during recovery? Do you really
not to see him again until April? No. ¡Gunners, stay calm! Our captain
still there.
Cesc is a guy who has mamado love for the sport in Barcelona and is a boy
which has become a man in London. Almost one quarter of its
young life was devoted to defending the pride and the feeling of being gunner. So
injured when he fell in that game against Liverpool which we lost more
a player. And it is true, but not entirely absent.
Cesc, our captain, you have to support their colleagues show that
Team goals are beyond individual names. The only name
to be raised in letters of gold is the ARSENAL. You have to give their peers
encouragement that this might require three months, to convince them that the sixty thousand
people who crammed every game the Emirates are not sufficient grounds for
never surrender. Cesc is the captain and not ever leave your clothes alone.
And we must be with him too. We should give courage in their recovery.
Ask him to go slowly because we want a full physical on Cesc
when the season reaches its peak. Clothing for you do not feel
only in these three months.
Cesc is not going to leave the team because orphan leadership is not going his way of being.
Injured or not will be with eleven colleagues who jump into the field. Captain
still there. As he gives you everything in every game, it will give away the land of
game for the good of the team. Cesc knows that the team is important and equipment
so when you need is available to play now.
Gunners, not alone, Captain still there. And with him thousands of red and souls
white support in some difficult times in our captain. Gunners quiet,
Cesc goes.
You Cesc, mood. Your fans will not let his captain will have to wait a
recovery without realizing their support. In every moment of doubt, each moment of
pain in this way you will have to go until the end of the injury, you do not
worry, a shout of encouragement will reach the Emirates: Forward Captain!

I'm more upset, if possible, that the FÃ bregas. I always affects the injury of a mate, but above is a friend and national team–mate as Cesc, with more reason"
THANKS MATE
In the end, after a visit to Dr. Cugat, it has been confirmed that should not be operated.
Cesc suffered a partial tear of interior ligament of the right knee.
Arsenal took a valuable draw to a confrontation in the afternoon today against
Liverpool. Valuable because after start the game, everything was against putting little
a little. In the end, the claw and the heart of some players, encouraged by a wonderful hobby
he went back to fill the Emirates, made it possible not to concede a goal that would have led to the
defeat.
Both teams jumped to the grass too much respect. In the first moments of
match, the tension was seen more in the gesture of the players in the game itself. Tal and
As was expected, the battle was waged in midfield. Liverpool put in a liza
center of the field of quality: Gerrard, Alonso and Leiva. Looking for the long pass to Kuyt or Keane
and for that we need men with precision. Plan B was the second game, and for that
Gerrard and Alonso were also the only paint. At Arsenal, Cesc started to move
desparpajo supported by Denilson. Soon the ball began to be yours and with him mimarla
much affection.
So to speak, Arsenal began to fuel its audience while jaleaba
tirelessly. Occasionally isolated as Liverpool took a shot from Gerrard, but the
clearer until 24 minutes was a header from Adebayor in small area that ended in the
hands of Reina. And I say 24 minutes because it was then that Nasri put a ball of gold
Van Persie. The long pass up the Dutchman who takes the slow Carragher
to make a work of art. Control–oriented and left–handed shot with her right hand beating
Reina who was unable to do anything.
Thereafter, the best minutes of the premises. Liverpool remained in a state of
shock. Arsenal began to like to play from side to side. Van Persie and printed Nasri
speed on the wings. At the center Cesc served them.
The Reds knew only long balls to put any of his two front ... much
were missing least the speed of Fernando Torres!
And yet reached the goal. Sure, in a long ball in a game with little danger.
Throw–in favor of Liverpool in their own field, patadón long, and the Irish
fearsome uses the slow pace of Djourou and ingenuity to get into the area of Almunia.
Let the pot and breaking ball with his instep. A missile which is in the Colaba goal in the
41 minutes. The Liverpool renaissance.
Three minutes after a mistake by Clichy on the left side it takes to put Kuyt
a satin ball to Gerrard who is very forced to auction off a door empty. And in the
discount, Kuyt himself takes a bad marking to fire crossed Djourou
causing a paradón of Almunia. Arsenal needed to go ... but no locker rooms. Yet they
waiting for the worst: FÃ bregas injury in a collision with Xabi Alonso. In principle, is a
sprain that will keep you point a few days the pitch.
After the break, Arsenal were without Cesc like a lion without a head. The dominance of Liverpool in
the initial minutes was total. The only Arsenal responded timidly to contrataque, but
Neither wore a danger because there was nobody who knew what to drive. Besides Van
Persie sacrificed a lot of work doing even midfielder. That reached the second
Liverpool was a matter of time. Began playing Benitez's team, guided by
Xabi Alonso and Leiva, both thanked the replacement of FÃ bregas – to move the ball
patiently.
For more unfortunately, in a game where Adebayor tries to protect the ball with the body,
Referee makes him the second yellow to understand that what is attacking the Togolese player
Liverpool. Was almost half an hour and Wenger watched as his team went ten and
Adebayor and Cesc without.
However, although all painted well for Liverpool, neither came nor his chances
coach seemed to want to reach. Only then we understand that to lift another man
Attack is like Babel, have to remove another front, Riera.
Arsenal did not lose face to the meeting. The boys of Wenger, led by Van Persie and
people surrendered to the comeback, is the soul left and played the weapon of contrataque, the
quickly. The penalty is that Diaby does not have the last pass that, as well, you know make Cesc.
The match was exciting. We can not talk about gathering tactical precision of defenses
... not serious. Premier was pure. And although Arsenal did everything to the contrary, it seemed that playing
12 thanks to the thrust of his love and the desire of the players who were in the field.
Nasri and Van Persie took more risk than any of the front of a Liverpool that
not be lavished on the area of Almunia. It was as if Arsenal were one more.
Since the expulsion of Adebayor, Liverpool created only one occasion: it was at minute 84. Kuyt
receives a ball inside the area and is located in the foothills of Almunia before it clears
that the Dutch could monitor solvency.
In the aftermath, Insúa put a good ball from the left which finished top of El Zhar
slightly deflected.
In the end, splitting points, but satisfies no one, makes it very distinct taste in your mouth.
Arsenal must leave happy because their work has received much less, the prize
not to lose. Liverpool played a part in the shameful that their occasions,
Further, the timid can be counted on the fingers of the hand.
The worst thing for the team for Wenger is that the Aston Villa escapes and the injury of their captain,
Cesc. For the good of Arsenal football and hopefully that is something shortly.

PORTO WIN THE FIRST PLACE
The Portuguese team went above Arsenal who beat two–zero. The
England had some notable absences as was the case with Adebayor,
Van Persie, Walcott, Nasri and his captain: Cesc Fàbregas.
It was enough to add a point to Arsenal for the first group, but lost. The
Team Jesualdo Ferreira went very well planted and decided to take the victory
to be planted as a leader.
However, those who first got the fright were the British in minute five.
Remove from lack of pitching that diverted Denilson Djourou. Porto, meanwhile, do not
showed that computer inoperative as the match in the Emirates and had
one occasion that broke Almunia, captain in the evening.
Despite the absence of Cesc, Arsenal was the owner of the center of the field. Fruit of
That came the opportunity to Ramsey. An auction that cleared the tight target local
Helton.
These comings and goings in the game when he launched a corner by what Meireles
pitching at the back of the net defender Bruno Alves at minute 38. Alves was more ready
Diaby knew that and get rid of its branding to mark his first in both Champions.
In the second part of the team Wenger tried to draw and soon received another pitcher
Cold water: Lisandro Lopez – at minute 54 – receives a fantastic pass
Fernando depth and boarding area from the right of a bat
powerful shot crossed into Almunia. Shoot to 116 km / h.
The visitors were trying to cut distances but his effort was a wasteland. The
Portuguese deployed his best game and could easily reach the third goal locally.
Either through Cristian Rodriguez left behind Eboue on the right and his shot
left licking the opposite pole from the door of Almunia, either through
Lucho whose shot from the front left outside for too little.
Arsenal's defeat that now faces the draw of the day on December 19 as

Arsenal, the team criticized as of late, has shut many mouths to
imposed by 1–2 to Chelsea in a fort called Stanford Bridge.
On the afternoon of today's team Cesc FÃ bregas, which premiered in captaincy League,
presented an alignment closer to eleven of its gala on other occasions.
Recovered to Adebayor, Sagna and Nasri for the game today, so that nursing
is emptying slowly.
Lately, the duels between the Blues and the Gunners were still high voltage, and
this was not going to be less. He started the game fast and it was Arsenal who had the
first big chance when Gallas was right not to connect with a ball rejected by
Cech in the small area.
But with the passing of minutes, the Chelsea owner was doing the game;
in part because the local marrow was being imposed on the average visitor. Cesc, in
The first part was very harassed by the work of Lampard, Deco and Mikel.
Thus, in minute 30, after a recovery from Chelsea on a free kick Almunia, the
Portuguese Bosingwa from the right makes a pass at medium altitude looking for
Salomon Kalou in the small area of Arsenal. Djourou, who came out today in central
detriment of Silvestre, in an attempt to clear the ball eventually enter
inside the goal.
Thus began the greatest moments of Chelsea pushed for the goal. The Arsenal
found that the best we could do was hold on and go to the dressing room with that
result.
In the second part of Scolari decided to set some great opportunity he could
put enough ground through to take the match. In a special
combination of Kalou and Anelka. The ball does not find the foot of the French
near the box, but those of Lampard who, in front of Almunia, shooting outside the
goal.
That's when Cesc appeared more. He arrived at a good triangulation between Adebayor, who
dropped the ball and head for Nasri it, subtly, gave it to Denilson. The
Brazilian attended by the center to Van Persie – in offside – so that he could beat
Cech to a powerful shoot.
Three minutes later, at 62, a lack launched by the captain to the heart of the area, is
Drop by the Togolese head of Adebayor and Van Persie, before the passivity of Lampard
it was defending, were turned and put a satin ball to the left of Cech stick where no
could reach.
It was Arsenal with absolute control of the match and began to appear much more
Cesc, who understood that was the rhythm and dynamics that more suited his team
remount after the match.
And balsamic–important victory for Wenger's team that is fourth and
still hooked to the top of the League. We show that this team without being decimated
by an infinity of casualties, has enough quality to fight for the league or competition
that these young people are set as an objective. And full of victories since he reached Cesc
the captaincy.
WELL DONE GUNNERS!!!!

Cesc Fabregas insists that Arsenal will go Stamford Bridge on Sunday with the sole intention of winning.
Just one win in five games has seen Arsène Wenger's side drop 10 points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea and Fabregas knows how crucial a victory in West London could be for his side.
Chelsea boast the division's best home defensive record, with just three goals conceded in their seven outings at the Bridge, but the new Gunners captain is certain that neither side will hold back in the final third.
"Our target is to go there and win," said Fabregas. "We need to get some points back.
"Arsenal never go for a draw and a club like Chelsea will be the same as us. Every time I have played against them they have gone forward and tried to gain victory. We will expect it will be the same on Sunday.
"They have been playing really well at home. I haven't watched a lot of the games but the times I have seen them they have played some very, very good stuff with quick football and good combinations. I respect them a lot but will we see."
Cesc Fàbregas will take inspiration from Tony Adams as he bids to captain Arsenal to their first silverware since 2005.
Like Fabregas, Arsenal legend Adams was 21 when he was handed the captain’s armband by then manager George Graham. ‘Mr Arsenal’ went on to captain the side for 14 years, becoming the first skipper in English football to secure League titles in three different decades (1988/89, 1997/98 and 2001/02).
Although Fabregas admits that achieving just half of what Adams did as the captain would be ‘amazing’, he was keen to highlight the importance of forging his own path with the armband.
“From what people say he was amazing,” said the 21–year–old after Tuesday’s victory over Dynamo Kyiv. “I never really saw him play because I was too young but from what people say he was amazing and everybody says amazing things about him.
“Hopefully one day – not so much be like him, because I like to be my own player and person – but of course I want to achieve the things that he achieved.”
“I want to lift a trophy. At the end of the season we will see what we can achieve. At the moment we are in all of the competitions, people can say whatever they want about the title race but we have only played 14 games. It is not over yet and it is up to us to finish where we will finish. We will see, at the moment nothing is done and we will fight until the end.”
After suffering their fifth Premier League defeat of the season on Saturday, many questioned Arsenal’s ability to overcome the 10–point gap between them and leaders Chelsea and suggested that the Champions League was a more realistic aim for the Gunners. Not so according to Fabregas.
“Well Europe is a different game to the Premier League,” said the midfielder. “All the teams in the League know that they have to defend a lot and put pressure on us all the time, it is as if all week they train on only defending.
“Of course in the Champions League it is a little bit different, teams like to play a bit more and come out a bit more. Maybe it is true that it suits us a little bit more but as I said, if you want to win something you must be able to play against anybody.”
What has caused the football hot passions, joys, disappointments,
anger, frustration ... it's like life itself. Football is the only sport
where there is the same kind of competition in the live of each day, where there is
friendship, and also treacherously hug. Football is a mock–up perfectly
accomplished in life. If we wanted any aspect of our lives could be explained
key in football.
And as in life itself, also in football, youth must show that
have talent and should do to see the four winds. Spend that, as in life,
carrying more time on this can not assume that there is a generation behind them
able to get to where they could not even imagine, a generation
supported by a talented, first class, and especially about the mood of that,
Many times, who lacks takes years.
Today, the big clubs in Europe are among their most precious treasures to
these teens called to be the geniuses of football ahead. Guys are eager,
with the force that is having a dream, the struggle to achieve that dream. Van
loaded with inexperience, it's true, as is true that in a world so
competitive, inexperience can lead to errors. But young people always
have in mind his dream and after each fall know that their duty is lifted.
Look at the number of players under 23 years. Are perplexed by the talent
who cherish in their boots. Will not be able to say that as inexperience is a
ballast for a computer. The talent is always the solution. Young people with talent
Today we are in the world of football it is a solution.
They have fought hard to get up there, until the doors of his dream. Will not
now crumbling. Just calling who believes in them. What happens is that as
in life itself, few are confident that all the talent of young geniuses.
Those that do youth discover that they are a solution.
Arsenal 4, Cesc, is the captain of the team. That was the decision of Arsène
Wenger. And gave him the responsibility of the game Gunner within the field of play,
Cesc now has the task of guiding his team–mates also beyond what
just football.
Cesc, a boy aged 21, has earned the recognition of pulse and coach
fans both on and off the field. It is no coincidence that as a kid
Young leads one of the best teams in Europe, it is not just a question of quality
football.
"I am proud and I know it is a great responsibility, but together with my
I know colleagues who have the spirit and commitment to get back to being a team
winner and to realizing our potential "
His words after learning the decision of what Wenger summary everything. Start a new
career stage Cesc. Begins a new stage in Arsenal.
Congratulations captain.

Over the past few days there has been a lot of speculation about my future
with Arsenal and my relationship with Arsene Wenger.
I just want to say that I am very happy at Arsenal, a club that has given me
everything since I was 16 years old, and with Arsene Wenger, the manager who has
trusted me since he signed me when I was 16.
All I want is to win trophies with Arsenal and continue to develop both
professionally and personally at the club.
HOUSE: THE EMIRATES COLOUR: RED PEOPLE: GOONERS
The 31–year–old, who was tasked by coach Arsène Wenger with setting an example to his younger team–mates, feels that the experience of such a match can only have done Arsenal's next generation of stars good, and was particularly impressed with Spanish midfielder Cesc Fàbregas, who set up both of his side's early goals. "Everybody knows about the quality of his passes," said the former Stade Rennais FC and FC Internazionale Milano player. "I knew he would make a difference for us and he had a good game."
WELCOME AT ARSENAL !!!!
Recital pass and the game of King Fàbregas returning to graze in the Champions perfection.
Football is a game of the Arsenal team and is possibly the best European set interprets this maximum. A computer that highlights some more than others but in which the game unfolds that is only possible with the participation of all.
Yesterday at the stadium Þükrü Saracoðlu Istanbul witnessing yet another example of gambling and entertainment in the Gunners team. The set of Arsene Wenger crushed, as I did with Porto, a dauntless Fenerbahçe that, rather than rival small, so yesterday was a team overwhelmed by the game unfolding Londoners.
And largely because of what happened yesterday are the players who understand that being good, being the cracks does not mean they are above good and evil in his team, these players are aware of the importance to their teams and that is why want to be one more among their peers.
That's Cesc. Cornerstone of this squad, the commander of the cañoneros. Needed just eleven minutes to give two goals to Adebayor and Walcott. Yes, in 10 minutes Cesc from the center of the field I sank a vertical pass the hole and planted just in front of Demirel goal to Adebayor . The Togolese did save the output of the goalkeeper and define class. But just a minute later, King Fàbregas was returning to launch its troops with a move modeled: I went to the hole for Walcott to Demirel and that breaks down the 0–2 when fans were still entering the field.
From then on the match that was more flamboyant, was an ode to the excitement and soccer thanks to Arsenal because the whole Luis Aragones could only see how it was razed.
Although he did not want to give up so soon.
In the 19th minute, following a lack at the heart of the area centered visitor, Song (which occupied the central position for the many casualties in this demarcation) loses the battle with the Turkish front in their bid to head the ball and it falls into the Wild feet that unintentionally leaves at the bottom of his goal. The Fenerbahce recortaba distances, but it was a mirage.
Within two minutes Diaby broke the waist to the two central and beats Demirel draft crossfire.
Goals and more goals and, of course, display of football. If the goals continued in the second part in the signing of Song and Ramsey (who closed the scoring in the discount) by the Gunners, good game also was a constant for the second time and was the unmistakable stamp of King Fàbregas, owner and master of the tempo of the game. This kid is capable of playing time and what they wanted with a deadly weapon his football intelligence and his prodigious feet.
But Arsenal is a team, with capital letters, and this implies that without the participation of all apparently in Istanbul would not be possible. The whole Turkish Luis Aragones and a large Güiza (author of 2–4) swept yesterday as a group of players ambitious, serious and réponse, with quality but, more importantly, a group of players who know, first of all, they are That means a group.
Arsenal impressed in Europe, the mother of all competitions at the club. Cesc also impressed with 21 years who teaches all those who give awards to individual espetacularidad football playing for the team, for your fellow, do not just enjoy your fans but enjoys any lover of football, because seeing and Cesc to see Arsenal is one enjoyed.
COME ON GUNNERS !!!!
If a lover is as beautiful a sport like football, if one is able to identify
with a few colors, if one is intoxicated by the passion of millions of people in the
world, if you've ever been the heart and he shrugged as he noticed a tear in
emotion or penalty fell on his cheek while his team was in a spot
game, then you can continue reading this article because you will understand that
successive lines are seized by the subjectivity and emotion that has
vibrated with a player.
A Cesc I've seen many parties, from little, with his club Arsenal, with
Spanish selection in the different categories ... I've seen as a talented young man was
refine their strengths and eliminate their mistakes. And soon arrived larger
parties, those who made us think that there had chaval�n wood crack.
However, one of those matches was the one who showed me that everything that
pointing was already a reality. It was when I discovered that Cesc was King, King F�bregas.
It was at San Siro, in the quarter between Milan and Arsenal. The performance of Cesc in
This game was crucial for his team entered the knockout.
But if you always remember this match is for something more. At that meeting, in which
I did not see a scenario simple player, a single member of the team. At San Siro
that night he had a leader, a guide.
A reference to his companions and also for the attackers. Gushing from his boots
the balls that were like daggers queue between the holes that allowed the impossible
Milan's defense, but was also aware that it could not be neglected
rearguard.
It was like a general who led the contest from the same battlefield. A
general who kept united and orderly and that the defense planned to perfection a
Deadly attack. At San Siro saw King F�bregas.
Football is more than just a game. It is a sharing of feelings. The feeling that
Cesc offers today when he is in the center circle in the field of play is the
security in itself, believing in its potential, and that notice this peers
and its rivals. And that is just a football player.
Where in the quarterfinals of Euro saw walking toward the point of Cesc
penalty, in the fifth and decisive launch, and I could read their lips that "what I have

"The best midfielder I would say is Steven Gerrard. I really rate him as a player and as a man. I think he is still one of the best," Vieira said at an event run by Ford's Feel Football debate website www.feelfootball.com.
When pressed on the contenders to one day rival Gerrard as one of the best midfielders in football, the France international spoke of his former Gunners team–mate Cesc Fabregas.
He continued: "Fàbregas (has the potential to be the best). I think he is learning every year.
"Now he is a top quality player. He is one of the best. In the years to come he can be at the top."
Fàbregas has often been linked with a return to his boyhood club Barcelona, with the rumours failing to abate as the North London outfit strive for a first trophy since 2005.
But Vieira is sure the 21–year–old Spaniard can achieve all he desires at Emirates Stadium.
He added: "Of course (he can achieve everything he wants at Arsenal). I think if the club matches the same desire as the player, then why not?"

Manager Arsène Wenger hailed the "complete performance" of Cesc Fàbregas as Arsenal FC recovered from Saturday's surprise domestic defeat to register three UEFA Champions League Group G points with an emphatic defeat of FC Porto. Wenger is now targeting first place in the section, while his counterpart Jesualdo Ferreira pointed to the opportunities his side spurned before Robin van Persie opened the scoring for the hosts, saying: "This could have changed the game."
AFTER falling behind to a Kevin Davies goal, Arsenal responded brilliantly, with Cesc Fàbregas shining in midfield, and Emmanuel Eboue and Nicklas Bendtner scored vital goals before Denilson sealed victory.
Having accused Dynamo Kiev defender Andriy Nesmachny of attempting to "destroy" Theo Walcott in Wednesday's Champions League game in Ukraine, Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger left the 19–year–old out of his starting XI against Bolton's bruisers. The Reebok has been a hostile venue for Wenger's teams, though they came back from 2–0 down last season to win 3–2 in stoppage time.
Bolton, despite an indifferent start to the season, proved to be obstinate opponents to overcome again, taking the lead, almost inevitably, from a set–piece, when Joey O'Brien's corner was headed into the far corner of the net by Davies. The Bolton forward outjumped Kolo Toure and placed his effort beyond the reach of Manuel Almunia, the Arsenal goalkeeper, and Gael Clichy, who was positioned on the post. Davies�s header from a long clearance by Jussi Jaaskelainen, the Bolton goalkeeper, and Kevin Nolan�s harrying of Almunia had secured the corner.
Bolton's physical strength and directness knocked Arsenal out of their stride in the initial stages. When Bendtner attempted to set up Emmanuel Adebayor for a shot inside the Bolton penalty area Andy O'Brien's strong tackle thwarted their efforts. However, Fàbregas soon took charge in midfield and Arsenal's excellent passing began to scythe a path through to their strikers. From being on the front foot and looking dangerous, Bolton were under siege.
Bendtner chested down a Fàbregas cross and, from the edge of the penalty area, Toure's first–time shot veered just wide of the post. Almost imperceptibly, Arsenal slipped into a higher gear and Bendtner set up Adebayor again, the Togo international turning and striking the inside of the post with his close–range shot. Another incisive pass by Fabregas into the box presented Bendtner with a scoring chance and Danny Shittu's brave block yielded a corner. From the resultant kick, Alex Song's header struck the post again, though it proved to be a brief reprieve for the under–pressure Bolton defence.
Predictably, it was Fàbregas's running and vision that brought Arsenal's equalising goal. The Spanish matador seemed to hypnotise the line of defenders on the edge of the area before he released the ball to Bendtner. His pass for Adebayor ran perfectly for Emmanuel Eboue, who appeared to be in an offside position, but the Ivory Coast international applied a ruthless finish inside the near post. Arsenal were playing exquisite football and, within a minute, they went ahead. Eboue played the ball to Adebayor, whose pass into the left side of the box created space for Denilson to cross and Bendtner's shot from point–blank range beat Jaaskelainen. Only a terrific block by Nolan from another shot by Eboue prevented Arsenal increasing the lead.
But Bolton managed to dig in and turn the game their way again. When Ricardo Gardner charged into the Arsenal penalty area Toure needed to make a first–rate tackle. The ball broke for Joey O'Brien, who teed it up for Nolan, and Almunia produced a superb save from the Bolton captain's shot. Nolan volleyed wide minutes later from a flick–on by Davies to emphasise the fact that they would not just roll over.
Just before the interval Davies was booked for a tackle on Clichy that sent the Frenchman to hospital for X–rays on his left leg but Arsenal started the second half strongly and Jaaskelainen had to make a brilliant one–handed save to turn a well–hit shot by Song around the right post.
For much of the second half, however, Arsenal were pinned down by some heavy Bolton bombardment and for all of their pretty football during the first half, it was their ability to soak up this pressure in the second that secured victory.
