KennyPowers Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'm surprised at the gushing over the Ozil deal. Very good player, destroyed England at the last world cup but either: a) Arsenal wanted him all along but Real were unwilling to do business until the Bale deal was complete before agreeing to sell him. Arsenal have panicked and broken their transfer record (by £27.5m) on deadline day on a little playmaker (the one position they didn't need) for a huge fee given Real were presumably keen to sell after shelling out for Bale. Plus is his attitude a bit of an issue? He always looks in a mood. He doesn't have an attitude issue and he's one of the best playmakers on the planet. Real manager was asked who he wants to keep out of di Maria and Ozil (to fund Bale). He picked di Maria so Ozil on his way. Real's loss is Arsenal's gain. I'll say this. Giroud is suddenly a huge fantasy prospect with all these playmakers behind him and no competition upfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Everton signing Barry, McCarthy and Lukaku. Good moves for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) Ozil has recorded the most assists of any player in all 5 of Europe's top leagues in the time he has been at Madrid. One of the best playmakers in world football. Edited September 2, 2013 by LondonLax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Hope Lukaku goes o Everton. Newcastle fans gonna be chuffed with this window. What happened there is kinnear mislaid his diary with all his top contacts in, he has spent the last 6 hours on the phone to directory enquiries asking to be put through to Carlo ancholoti, but keeps getting put through to Kris akabusi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyPowers Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I don't really get McCarthy, never looked more than average to me. I've never noticed a difference between McArthur and McCarthy, they may aswell be the same player. Another signing from Wigan for Martinez. I wouldn't be happy if I was an Everton fan. Overpaying for players from Wigan rather than looking for gems from abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 plenty of tweets saying welbeck had signed for tesco fair play to them - Tesco Customer Care @UKTesco 31m @BBCSporf It is true, we've signed Danny!

KennyPowers Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 United fans not happy even if they get Fellaini. I'm not surprised. Their key players are either the wrong side of 30 (Van Persie, Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Carrick) or are too fond of pies (Rooney) and they can't sign any of the best young talent.

turnbull Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Have to laugh at the unfortunate Gail Davis reporting from QPR for Sky from what looks like a dogging site! Poor girl with all those leering blokes standing behind her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this season will be the showing of how many of Uniteds squad lack real quality, Ferguson always seemed to make players perform better than they are/were and it's gonna show.
