He's not worth £50 million but Wenger/Arsenal were very clever in tying him down to a 6/7??? year deal (that's pretty much unheard of) it gives you a lot more leverage.
Agree about Barca though, I used to have a bit of respect for them but this Cesc saga has become ridiculous, the blatant tapping up has made them as bad as Real in my eyes.
Both classless and seemingly above the rules.
i don't think any player is worth that kind of money, but because he has so many years of his contract left, his age & current market values, i think £50 million would be about right
i'm sure madrid or man c would pay it

which is what could be the following scenario if he puts in a transfer request.
as for barca & their players, . . . a pathetic bunch w**k**s & i hope that when spain goes into the recession thats looming, they go bankrupt

they're half way there with the amount of debt they already have, despite the success they've had over recent years!!!!!
