Cesc Fabregas<\/a> will become a stronger person after admitting that the captaincy has been a “heavy burden” for him.<\/span><\/p>\nFabregas is just 23 and Wenger has admitted that he is probably too young for such responsibility but says it will help the Spanish midfielder in the long term.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cIt is too much for him at his age \u2026 I believe so, of course,” Wenger said in an article in The Guardian<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n“But he is the captain of the team and Robin van Persie is vice-captain and they put a lot of pressure on themselves. Cesc is a winner. He wants to win, he is desperate to win the games. And, of course, when it does not work, he is frustrated.<\/span><\/p>\n“It is too much because it doesn’t go as well. Once it will go well, he will grow with it. Every difficulty in life will make you stronger, especially when you have a strong character. He is a strong character and I believe it will make him stronger.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cMaybe this season, it is a bit of a heavy burden for him.”<\/span><\/p>\nFabregas himself says that despite the captaincy being hard at times he must learn to deal with the pressure.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cI am the man who everyone looks to,” he said. “I don’t like to say it but it is true. If I play badly, I take responsibility and the pressure of the supporters.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cIt is not something I am used to but I am captain, so it is reality. Only me and Van Persie remain of that trophy-winning generation so we have a lot of responsibility.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cWe are all so young that there is nobody you look at and say: ‘Wow.'”<\/span><\/p>\nWenger insists that his team have performed well this season but says their lack of experience cost them at important moments.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cBut I don’t fault the attitude of my team. This team, this season, could have won absolutely everything. When things turned against us, we became a bit nervous in the key moments of the games.<\/span><\/p>\n“We try certainly to bring in some more experience. One of the reasons I took Jens Lehmann back as well, when we were close to the end, was that, you know\u00a0…\u00a0because he has done it.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n![](\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/666b26df125756_news.jpg-150x150.jpg\")
