Cesc Fabregas maintains he will be focused on beating Barcelona when he leads Arsenal out at the Nou Camp.
The Spain World Cup winner returns to the team he left as a teenager for the first time in a competitive club fixture following another summer of transfer speculation over a £30million move.
However, Fabregas, 23, insists after battling back to fitness from a hamstring injury to play on Tuesday, delivering a performance for the Gunners is his only focus.
"I am not here to shut up comments or to beat anyone speci
fically or whatever. I am just here to win for Arsenal Football Club," Fabregas said when fronting the media at the Nou Camp this evening.
