I think anything less than 40 would be a bargain given what English clubs are paying for far inferior players... Obviously they wont be willing to sell to any rivals but if ManCity or Chelsea were in the hunt they wouldnt hesitate to match that 40mill asking price...
Arsenal are probably the most likely of the top4 to drop out of a CL spot next season with or without Fabregas. That said, I think their main player last season was Nasri, and that was largely because of them having to deploy him in a more central role due to Fabregas' injuries. He was fantastic and to be perfectly honest I think they're in a situation where it might be better for them to sell Fabregas, rely more heavily on Nasri, and bring in better players for the positions where they really struggle...
If they do end up selling as expected, then I really hope Arsene continues his tradition of not paying big and not buying established talent. They've already bagged a very good player in Gervinho, but unless they improve their backline and goalkeeper then they'll always struggle to maintain their position imo...
Is it good for us that their main player is leaving ? All depends on how they spend the money imo...
