Cesc Fabregas has pleaded guilty to one of the more infamous and amusing crimes in Premier League history, after he confirmed that he was the man who threw pizza that landed on Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson in the infamous ‘Battle of the Buffet’ in 2004.

United had just ended Arsenal’s record breaking 49-game unbeaten run when tempers flared in the Old Trafford tunnel between the two fierce rivals, who were dominating Premier League football.
