Fàbregas receives Europa League medal.

Hi all, I have just created this account and currently I am unable to edit the Cesc Fàbregas article yet but according to the following url, since Chelsea have won the 2018/2019 Europa League, Cesc will receive a winners medal: https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/sport/soccer/impossible-to-select-favourite-for-europa-league-final-cesc-fabregas-927502.html

Could someone please update his page to reflect this? Thank you. Mcdudesan (talk) 08:23, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The source states that it is up to "each club to decide how they distribute them [medals]". Do we know that Chelsea have awarded one to Fàbregas? Mattythewhite (talk) 15:14, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He will receive one he played in the tournament so he is due a trophy and should be added to it

I agree, he should be considered 2018-19 Europa League winner. Markus2801 (talk) 00:12, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fabregas should be regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of his generation

There should be a citation stating that Fabregas was one of the greatest midfielers of his generation as he was widely regarded as one of the best midfielders throughout his time at Arsenal aand chelsea most notably these below

Incorrect; there shouldn’t be. Seasider53 (talk) 22:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes there should be, did you miss all the articles I just posted listing him as one of the best of his generation?

If this is included in Ozil and David Silva's wikipedia but not in Cesc who routinely ranks higher than both and achieved more than both then why can't it be included? Zinan10 (talk) 16:25, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
