Having led youth and reserve teams for the Serie B side, the former Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea star made the step up to interim head coach in November 2023. As a player, Fàbregas worked under some of the most prominent coaches in the game, including Arsène Wenger, Pep Guardiola, José Mourinho, Vicente del Bosque and Antonio Conte. In this exclusive Masterclass with The Coaches’ Voice, filmed in May 2023, he gives us an insight into how he wants his teams to build up from the back to create attacks. Using a 4-2-2-2 system, Fàbregas runs through the roles and responsibilities for players in each position, reveals the obsession for playing forwards that he inherited from Wenger, and explains why he sees the midfield as key to the game. It’s a brilliant insight into the philosophy of an exciting young coach, who will now be putting his learning to the test on the grass. We hope you enjoy it.

I feel sorry for the next generation that will no longer be able to see artists like Fabregas, Ozil, etc, due to the game becoming systemised & robotic - blessed to have watched some special special players!
After seeing what Xabi Alonso is doing at Leverkusen, i can see Cesc having a similar path. Both were players that had great vision and were always 5 steps ahead
Strong De Zerbian vibes here 👀
I'd love to see a video demonstrating the rotations and combinations used to play through a mid block rather than an aggressive press. I think most big teams face mid/low blocks a lot and I'd love to see what they're trying to implement in order to penetrate the last line.
Such an underrated legend, an OG......... My go to player way back in fifa 13 haha❤!!
Dizerbi out here inspiring the new generation 👑
Cesc Fabregas will become a Chelsea manager at some point and will take them back to the top.
I would love Cesc Fabrégas at Chelsea.
This guy thinks exactly like de zerbi. On paper, thats how brighton stood when building up last season. The 4 man midfield is something growing more and more. Guardiola and De Zerbi were the first to think of this brilliant 4 man midfield last season 🔥
a great futbol mind. i can see him going very far in his coaching career. would love to see him back at chelsea in some capacity. Good luck Cesc
Just started and already has a Masterclass video Excited to see how he grows. Midfielders tend to become good managers
I am glad that Cesc is bringing back of 10 role back into football. A true la masia graduate.
One of my favourite players when he was arsenal. Such an artist on the ball. Coming from a Liverpool fan
I like that Fabre isn't exactly like his former managers, or specifically a Barca style. It's unique in buildup formation, adapted to today's game and how important positional play is, while also managing a Serie B side where player development is different than spain, england, france etc.
Interestingly, this is how Brighton plays these days
Welcome To INTER,Coach❤
I hope he becomes Chelsea's manager one day
Spain had some of the greatest midfielders during his generation.❤
Just imagine Cesc following Xabi Alonso's path. Imagine Xabi managing Madrid and Cesc managing Barça simultaneously. It would no doubt be amazing to watch.
You can see De Zerbi’s influence 👏🏽.
