Kevin Kilbane Labels Cesc Fabregas A "Total Arse", Tells Story To Prove It

Kevin Kilbane is widely known as one of the nicest men in football, so when he is absolutely adamant that somebody is a twat, we trust his judgement.

Speaking on Off The Ball on Thursday night Kilbane was involved in a discussion regarding players acting like a bit of a dick on the football pitch.

The former Republic of Ireland international was asked if he could recall any one player who stood out in terms of acting the eejit, and immediately offered the name of Cesc Fabregas along with a tale from his time at Huddersfield that proved his point.

Cesc Fabregas was a total arse.

He was an absolute arse on the pitch, Fabregas. So disrespectful. Just mouth.

The one thing that stuck in my mind - I was playing at Huddersfield [in 2011], you know, I was on loan at "little" Huddersfield, and we went to The Emirates in the League Cup.

We were drawing 1-1, and Fabregas comes onto the pitch, and he was going up against Joey Gudjohnsen. Do you remember Joey Gudjohnsen? He was a midfielder who played at Bolton, Charlton as well I think.

He goes up to Joey Gudjohnsen and he says, 'You're shit, your team-mates are shit' and to be fair to Fabregas he scored a penalty and I was like, 'Cesc, this is Huddersfield, what are you doing, like Jesus Christ.

Time and a place, like. Do it to Paul Scholes or Roy Keane, not Joey Gudjohnen.

That is not exactly hard to believe.

Fabregas is a player who can be spotted moaning in every game he plays in, and just recently owned up to the fact that he was the Arsenal player who threw a slice of pizza at Alex Ferguson, over a decade after it happened.

But picking on Joey Gudjohsen and acting the big man against Huddersfield in the League Cup? Yeah, that's poor form.
