Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has called on the club's fans to show
Cesc Fabregas "the respect he deserves" when the former Gunners captain
returns to the Emirates Stadium in a Chelsea shirt on Sunday.
Fabregas,
27, has been integral to the Blues' Barclays Premier League title
challenge this season after joining from Barcelona in the summer.
Arsenal had reluctantly sold the Spain midfielder back to his boyhood
club for £30million in June 2011 and were understood to have first
option should the player come back onto the market.
A potential
deal never materialised though as Fabregas - who played more than 300
games for Arsenal after breaking into the first team as a 16-year-old -
joined up with Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge instead.
