Tell me Shadow do you think Man Utd need a couple of new players? or are you happy with your lot?..

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I am totally gutted by the result today, we didn't perform, but there again why put brand new players straight into a tough derby game.

We were outplayed today and disappointing, and what l dont understand why play Townsend instead of a two man strike force with Defoe up with Soldado.

Never mind - l accept defeat. i still HATE Arsenal.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

close sources to Arsenal say the club have put everything on the table for RM and Ozil. its up to the player now. he was benched for RMs game earlier, didnt feature as well as a sub. 3 youngsters came on instead. Morata didnt feature as well. I'd take him off them as well.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

We need a central midfielder, then maybe one or two others to freshen things up but theres no real concern for me about that so long as we get a decent midfielder in.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Kaka is going home, back to AC that is

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Yeah United will be bidding as we speak. He is exactly what they need and he is available and he would most likely rather go there. Hope Arsenal have a backup plan.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Being a Spurs fan, l fully understand about Bale going. To me its a great deal of money for any player.

I do know that Real Madrid did not want to upset Ronaldo, as he is the most expensive going. But l just hope that Bale doesn't end up like all the other great players that have left Tottenham end up on the scrapheap - ie Berbatov and Modric who have not played well since leaving.

Good luck to Gareth, but l think he has made the wrong move.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

:rofl: Modric had issues settling but has since been brilliant for RM. he got treated very very badly by the Spanish press saying hes the worst RM signing etc. but came back and had the last laugh. you should have seen him earlier!

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Modric had a great game today

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window

Al Jazeera confirming Ozil to Arsenal

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Can't believe it. Won't happen. thenry how many times have we been here and the deal isn't done? Ozil would be an epic signings but he is one of he best players in the world. Can you really see Chelsea, United and PSG all passing? I don't trust random Twitter accounts of Al Jazeera tbh.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Lets wait until AFC confirm it.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Yup. I am well prepared to be disappointed. But this is a level beyond that even. It would make up for the entire summer.

Aghhh who let on :( United are going to hijack this.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

the deal from Arsenal for Ozil has been on the table for a few days now if those close to the club are to be believed.

funny how the press jump on it straight after Bale is announced and also know PSG have been rejected. if the offers came in today Ozil would let it drag out until tomorrow then start rejecting for his own personal gain. just speculating btw.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I've just realised what people meant in the stands when they said we're getting another German.

Still can't believe we would sign Ozil, it's so outside our normal range. He would be our best player right away wouldn't he? That said United really must go in for him. He would improve them so much and they really do need a player like that as well as a big signing for Moyes.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

in the past 3 years he has totaled the most assists in La Liga

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Oh no does this mean we'll have to put up with Andy Townsend calling him Oozil on a weekly basis? Actually, do we still have to put up with Andy Townsend full-stop?

The big day is here folks. The Stokies are already massing outside the Britannia with the Hughes Out wagon and Jim White's head is programmed to explode sometime around 11pm.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

And they well and truly have.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Liverpool make more signings then and Chelsea top it off by loaning them Victor Moses, if people weren't paying attention before then they better start now.

Liverpool now have the power to launch a title bid and at the very least will be contending for top 4 without issue. You now have 6 clubs competing for 4 spots.
Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool.

I don't think Spurs will get it but in my opinion Arsenal are in for their biggest challenge yet.

All eyes should be on Daniel Sturridge and they should have been when he was at Chelsea, he was always going to be a great striker and I questioned Chelsea's determination to play a non scoring Torres ahead of a goalscoring Sturridge. Nevertheless Liverpool got a bargain and He'll be better than Suarez and i'd compare him to the young Wayne Rooney.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

l am not sure we are quite ready for top 4 yet adzii as this is still a very young side but l won't moan if we do get there this season.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Ba on loan would be fine after Ozil to be honest. Ozil allows Podoski to be a center forward too and Ba adds depth.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

By golly you are a pessimist today Sir.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

You're conditioned as an Arsenal fan not to expect known signings, let alone massive ones like Ozil. That would be a HUGE signing for any team. We got excited over Arteta.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I swap your team for mine then you know what it like to be worried all the time

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Yeah but these things are relative. Good point though. I think you'll be ok once the team beds in. Far worse teams in the league. Hull and Palace will go down IMO and one more...

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

What Damien said bar a few things.

Sunderland in my mind as a Newcastle fan had an impressive summer haul and I agree and did mention this way earlier in the thread that Sunderland would get off to a rough start before the team came together as a whole. However I have to reflect on my earlier view as Di Canio which I truly believe is a bad move for Sunderland, your fans may appreciate the guy and enjoy his managerial style but it has no place in football, Di Canio is an idiot and always will be, He has no idea how to run a Premier League football club and his attitude towards his players is ridiculous (Yes a Newcastle fan defending Sunderland players)

Tell your players off behind the scenes, fair enough but to lose your rag with them and then publicly bash them like he did on the BBC the other day is just way off.

Not to sound like I'm overhyping a player but Demba Ba will make more of an Impact than Mezut Ozil. Ba will score goals and lots of them, He's more clinical than Podolski, Walcott and Giroud put together.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Ozil and Cazola supplying Walcott, Giroud and/or Ba would be tasty

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Al-Jazeera are confirming Ba to Arsenal on loan.

I'm not too happy about the loan unless theres a knock down fee agreed already for a full transfer.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

The only problem you have with Ba is his ridiculous agents demanding hilarious fee's

Newcastle could have done with him. creative spark.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Nah we never missed out, we didn't even bid, anything JFK says is utter bollocks I'm afraid. Come the end of the window we'll get the usual summer statement of we pushed hard but couldn't get them over the line. Might as well just send a tape of last years explanation.

Infact forget it, I wouldn't be shocked if at this stage we'd approached Michael Owen.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

wow Owen. you'd be better off counting on Taylor playing upfront.

I reckon Arsenal will go back in for Cabaye today. we're still short on numbers in midfield. Arsenal have though told agents they are not longer in the market for an AM which is fine tbh, we only needed 1 able to play across the field.

what do you make of this...

didnt Newcastle want 15m+5m addons+percentage of future sale

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

We thought £20m was the realistic figure but it was already known Mike Ashley may go as high as £25m.

However with this being deadline day you could expect in Mike Ashley world for him to demand £30m
