Fabregas is magic, he wears a magic hat...

For five years between 2014 and 2019, Cesc Fabregas was a hero at Stamford Bridge, wowing fans with his creativity, passion and love for a club he was probably never supposed to want to play for.

Having now called time on his career, it's only right we look back at some of Fabregas' best moments in a Chelsea shirt.

5. 100th Premier League assist

Assists number 99 and 100 of Fabregas' Premier League career both came against Stoke City in December 2016.

It was a huge achievement for the Spaniard, who became the fastest player in the division's history to ever set up a century of goals. Fabregas reached 100 in just 293 appearances - 74 faster than previous record holder Ryan Giggs.

4. Free-kick vs West Ham

Fabregas didn't score a whole load of goals during his time at Chelsea - 22 in 198 games for the Blues - but two came at once against West Ham in March 2016.

A late penalty earned Chelsea a draw but it was this picture-perfect free-kick which really deserved the headlines.

3. Assisting Diego Costa vs Arsenal

The Fabregas-Diego Costa partnership is one of legend at both Chelsea and across the wider Premier League.

The duo's telepathic connection was best summed up in October 2014 with this sensational link-up against none other than Arsenal, with Fabregas flexing his technical muscle to pick a pass which simply did not look possible.

2. Crucial goal vs QPR

Chelsea were battling for the Premier League title towards the end of the 2014/15 season but saw their dreams nearly derailed by a QPR side ready to sit back in search of a point which would have helped their push for survival.

They needed a moment of magic, and of course, Fabregas was all too happy to provide it, slotting home with two minutes to go to keep Chelsea's dream alive.

1. Unreal debut vs Burnley

Fabregas' Chelsea debut came against Burnley on August 18, 2014, when he produced one of the greatest assists in Premier League history.

Seriously, passes do not come much better than this one.
