Arsenal legend Adams: Last season Cesc was big sulk

Arsenal legend Tony Adams has had a pop at captain Cesc Fabregas over his attitude last season.

Adams agrees that Cesc is this term playing his best football.

But he told the Sunday Mirror: "To be honest, I think Cesc sulked a bit last season. It was as though he wanted to be in the holding midfield role, that he wanted to be the man who pulled the strings.

"But Arsene Wenger has convinced him about the ­danger he can pose in a more forward position and clearly he has taken that on board.

"Just look at the vital goals he has scored and the match-winning influence he has had. Arsene wants him more ­forward where he can be both dangerous and creative - and you have to say that it is ­working well."
