Yes, spanish newspapers are shit as always, highlighting only what they want.
But, in the other hand, I firmly believe Cesc will come to Barcelona soon, maybe even before the world cup. The reason is clear: there are elections at barcelona. Everybody knows Cesc is target no 1 , so maybe Laporta before quiting the board or maybe Sandro Rosell (who leads the pundits) will do everything possible to bring him back, no matter the price. They even speculate to trade Toure alongside with a bunch of money.
Previous years there was talking about it, it's true, but you don't know what it is to have elections in Barcelona, sometimes it seems it's more important than the Catalonia elections themselves... people thinks of the Barcelona chairman as one of the most important things here. Not that I agree, but...
So, I think he will come here, even if right now Arsenal needs him a lot more than us. But he's turned into a media priority, so fans take it for granted he has to come.
The good thing for you is you will receive a load of cash and probably one of my favorite players (touré).
From the player's perspective, he just loves arsenal, that's obvious, but he knows he will come to barcelona. He's got friends, family and his former club. Add to this he's going to be paid more and play in a team that wins more titles lately with players he knows since childhood and like a lot. It's hard to refuse that.
I would prefer him to stay at Arsenal if it serves to win you the next EPL as long as we win the Liga next year, but truth is is see him here very very soon.
arsenal have now paid their stadium so any money we get could easily buy us Torres
