Fabregas: Little Britain is the best. Did you know Matt Lucas is an Arsenal fan? They tell me he's a regular at our matches, though I've never met him. That guy is so funny. And my girlfriend and I also love watching WAGS Boutique. We stumbled upon it one night and now we're hooked! (edit)
Fabregas: There are aspects of my game that I can improve, such as my left foot, which is only really for standing on, and my aerial abilities. Thankfully I'm still young, and God willing I will have many more years to keep learning(edit)
Fabregas: My first World Cup memory is of Zidane's two goals against Brazil in the final of France 98. The other memory that stands out is not such a happy one - the quarter-final between Spain and Korea in 2002, when Joaquin crossed from the goalline for (Fernando) Morientes to score but the linesman ruled that the ball had gone out.(edit)
Fabregas: It's been incredibly hard adapting to living in England. Leaving your family and friends behind is tough, but it's also been a wonderful experience that has taught me a lot, and now I'm reaping the rewards.

Fabregas: I was really proud to have made my full Spain debut at just 18, but I need to come back down to earth now and keep working hard to keep the dream alive. If I want to keep these great experiences coming, I need to make sure I improve every day.(edit)
Fabregas:My debut was a dream come true, it was wonderful. I felt really comfortable surrounded by all these great players.(edit)
Fabregas: To make it into the final 23 would be a dream come true. I must thank Luis Aragones for giving me the chance to make my debut and prove what I'm capable of. He's a vastly experienced, very professional coach who's not afraid to blood young players, which is very important.(edit)
Fabregas: Things are going really well and I'm improving everyday. I've been getting plenty of games and had the good fortune to have people around who believe in me. That's always positive.(edit)
