I'll Be Fit For Spain - Arsenal Captain Fabregas
Cesc insists he can recover in time for the qualifier against Belgium on Saturday...
Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas believes he will be fit in time for Spain's remaining World Cup 2010 qualifiers against Belgium and Estonia.
After linking up with the national team Fabregas told Sport that he feels good and expects to be ready for Saturday's game against Belgium.
"I'm fine. I tried to train on Friday and Saturday to play against Manchester [United] but I had a little trouble. I decided with the coach [Arsene Wenger] not to push it and to be okay for the national team," Cesc said.
"If it feels okay I will stay, I've rested in the afternoons for three days to see how I respond, but I have a good feeling," he added.
"Right now I am physically fine and I want to help the national selection with two important games," Fabregas remarked.
Spain need just one point from their remaining two fixtures to guarantee top spot in European Qualifying Group Five and book their place in South Africa next summer.
