Yeah, Spurs really brought in Sunday league players buying the likes of Paulinho, Soldado, Lamela and Eriksen.

We spent £40M a got a world-class player: Spurs have bought Paulinho (bizarre since they've already got two big units who can't pass the ball in midfield), Chadli who looks shit, Lamela who needs time and Soldado who's an upgrade on Defoe but (incredibly) adds even less to team play.

Ozil greeted by the Transfer Forum crowd.

Arsenal could have done with Paulinho. Lamela could be a fantastic signing, and who says he needs time? Players can move to England and just play well you know. You conveniently forgot about Eriksen too.
 
Must suck for you. Getting bale for 80mil while letting go of Ozil for 40.
I don't really mind Bale's price that much to be honest, he's way overpriced but it's not like it's my money anyway. Just wish we would have kept Ozil, it's a big mistake getting rid of such a quality player. He'll only get better too.
 
The reliable journos said it wouldn't be confirmed for a while but I agree, it's getting scary.


I do believe they are doing his medical this long to test how far his eyes could pop out, they are currently at 3 inches out!

But on a serious note, the hours are ticking away and BILD (the usually reliable journalists) said it was 4:30 pm, that was 2 hours ago.

We should look at replacing Wenger with you since you clearly know the market better than him.

Bild are massively unreliable. Sky clearly just made up the 6pm thing to keep people tuning in. The answer is that no-one knows.
 
So why does people think this deal will go through while the Herrera deal won't? Aren't they both no announced yet?

Yep, among the very best at what he does. You've got Isco now but whether he can match Ozil's output remains to be seen. Specially now that you'l have a Ronaldo clone playing from the other flank, having someone who'd unselfishly create would have been good.
 
It is amazing that some people think Isco already trumps Ozil, the highest chance creator and assist-maker in the top 5 leagues in the past 3 years, baffling.
 
From Die Welt
Noch immer gibt es keine offizielle Einigung zwischen Özil und Arsenal. Beide Parteien verhandeln noch - es zieht sich... Geht am Ende möglicherwiese der Transfer doch nicht über die Bühne?

The negotiations are going on, no deal yet.

Don't worry, folks, I'll sort this one out for you. It says: 'Noch immer gibt es keine offizielle Einigung zwischen Özil und Arsenal. Beide Parteien verhandeln noch - es zieht sich... Geht am Ende möglicherwiese der Transfer doch nicht über die Bühne?'
 
On transfer deadline day? Don't be cruel :) How will you gloat when Ozil runs off screaming to Paris or back to Madrid.
