Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has reportedly lost patience with Spanish giants Barcelona and the continued speculation linking club captain Cesc Fabregas with a move to the Catalan club.
Fabregas has oft proclaimed his unswerving loyalty to the footballing vision instilled into Arsenal by meticulous manager Arsene Wenger, but that has not perturbed the playmaking midfielder's pursuiters.

"I am really p****d off with Barcelona and all that nonsense," Hill-Wood is said to have told The Daily Star.
"Cesc is on a very good, long-term contract and I don't think he has
any intention of not honouring it.
"It is not the first time they have done this and it is a most disrespectful and tiresome thing to do.
"You would think there would be some action you could take against them, but I suppose you cannot stop the man shooting his mouth off."Our position, and I think Cesc's position, is very steadfast," he added. "He has been with us for seven years and there is no reason he should want to up sticks.
"I don't think I would talk to him about what Barcelona have been saying because I don't think he wants to talk about it.
"From everything we hear he is very settled. He has a long-term contract and I see absolutely no reason why it shouldn't continue."
Barcelona have also been linked with a move for prodigiously-talented striker Benik Afobe.
The youngster is said to be held in the highest of regards by Wenger due to his outstanding goal-scoring exploits in the club's youth side, and his technical ability is believed to belie his years, however, the player is understood to prefer a stay in north London.
