Cesc Fabregas reveling in new Arsenal role
With Arsenal having switched from the 4-4-2 formation usually preferred by manager Arsene Wenger and instead continued the 4-2-3-1 arrangement that was first trailed at the end of last season, Fabregas has found himself playing behind Robin van Persie and alongside Andrei Arshavin and Theo Walcott. [LNB]Against Blackburn he produced his best display of the season with four assists and a goal and appears now to be mastering his specialised position.

[LNB]"I'm still getting there, you know, to be at my best in that position. Because I think it's different. When I started at Arsenal we were playing 4-4-2, I was one of those two in the middle so I could come very deep to get the ball and when I was young it was really good for me because I had more time from deep positions to link with other players, to move forward from deep. [LNB]"Now my position is higher up on the pitch, sometimes I don't touch the ball as often as I used to, so I have to be patient. [LNB]"But I know I'm in this part of the pitch where I can do dangerous things in terms of giving the final ball, and I have more time to go to dangerous positions to score a goal as well. I feel more freedom in that position."
