aniversari feliç, el meu capità!

Happy 22nd birthday to Cesc Fàbregas!

The Arsenal babies are growing up so quickly. *tear* I still remember the days of "Fàbregas, woooaah, he's only seventeen, he's better than Roy Keane!" Now he's 22, and...well, the rhyme's gone, but he's still better than Roy Keane.

He came to Arsenal at the tender age of sixteen, in possession of very little English but rocking a pretty sweet mullet:

And now look at him. Given the captaincy at 21, like Tony Adams...

Scoring at AC Milan in the Champions League...


Taking the final penalty against Italy to bring Spain to the Euro semifinals...


And just generally being a fantastic player and playmaker. So happy 22nd, and here's to many more years at Arsenal.
