Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes Cesc Fabregas can be the world's best player.
"He is four or five years ahead of a normal player at the moment; that tells you how far he can go.
"So long as he does not suffer any major injuries, he could certainly be the best midfielder in the world."
Wenger added: "He gets you in touch with the true beauty of football, and the deep aspects of the game."
