    so how come Arteta allows Fabregas at colney to do training sessions etc when Fabregas stabbed Wenger right in the back when he needed him the most?

      Because players, managers, coaches, etc. aren’t fans, Cesc is like a colleague to them. Most working in the game won’t hold a grudge for the same reasons as fans.

      He could have handled the way he left better and it cost the club money, but I don’t see it as a betrayal to fans and Wenger.

      Every Arsenal fan knew he was going back to Barcelona at some stage, he was pretty open about it iirc and 2011 Barcelona with Pep, Messi, Xavi and Iniesta would have tempted any player in the world. I mean Vieira flirted with clubs every transfer window, even the Henry-Barca saga went on for 2 years.

      It wasn’t Cole and RvP level betrayals.
