You do realise there's a chance that we have made an offer and Ozil would rather go else where right? Its all very well saying we're daft for not making a bid etc but we don't know that we haven't made an offer.

Ahh but you see that will be translated as some that we didn't bid enough.

Well if we have.. we have moved slow once again!!
 
Sky are now saying year deal with barca for 8 mil.
 
Khedira left for Madrid with a year left on his contract, like Ozil, for almost double the ammount quoted.

If that are the reliable sources - it's complete bollocks.
 
Well if he cost £8m i'd suggest we didn't make a bid at all.

More than likely. I'm still taking these reports with a pinch of salt though. To similar to the Twitter stories from yesterday.

How? Maybe Ozil was always holding out for a move to Barcelona or some such? Ozil doesn't and didn't need to be in a rush to move, he's had plenty of time to see how it pans out.
 
Again people need to realise that we may never have bid fo him or been interested in getting him though. Still I think this stories got more legs to it yet.

Yeah me too. It was breaking news on sky last year that Benzema was on his way to us. Just abit surprised aswell tha Pep speaks English on twitter!!
 
Reported salary of 150k a week.

no wonder United would not be in for him if that is the case.

150k a week on far less tax than in England, United couldn't hope to compete with those wages. He would be getting paid a good chunk more than our top earners and at the age of just 21 too....

fecking hell didn't think of that.. Well done Sherlock. They probably phoned him and told him if this Fabregas thing doesn't come through hold tight we are coming for you next!!
 
We've got Darron Gibson remember, who needs Ozil? Ha, I remember Souness saying something exactly the same "Who needs Zidane when we've got Tim Sherwood?"

Absolutely ridiculous if we didnt even attempt to bid for Ozil, ludicrous.

Most likely we did and he just went for the better money elsewhere.. his loss, if he can't see how working under Fergie and actually getting a regular run in the side would be beneficial for his long term development.

You don't know what the lad wonts untill you talk to him do you? Maybe thats what Barca was willing to give him. Do you want him to say no.

So what is it then did we bid for him didn't we bid for him? Did he turn us down because he wanted more wages, was Barca really his only destination.

You guys are funny!!

Strange thing is though there was reports yesterday that he had turned down Barca and Madrid on personal terms as they wanted him to be second fiddle to Kaka and Iniesta thats why the prem seemed the liely destination.

yeah right, Barca would give 150k for Ozil, make him the 3rd highest earner in the club when he's worth 8m pounds. It's getting more and more ridiculous.

That is what Shitty would do.:lol:
 
I still dont believe it until it's confirmed by either club.

I do think United should get their finger out and make a bid now if they haven't done so already!!
 
There were reports last night that Guardiola had turned the deal down as well.
 
You don't know what the lad wonts untill you talk to him do you? Maybe thats what Barca was willing to give him. Do you want him to say no.

And maybe United have been talking to him (Don't have to agree a fee with Bremen before we can talk to him, don't even need their permission).

I doubt Barca sat at the table and simply said - 150k per week, that is our opening and final offer, take it or leave it.
 
I'm certain all these reports originated on Twitter.

Desperation kicks in

We need to sell someone to buy this kid

Who do we not need

That Giggs guy is getting on a bit

Gibson? He aint proven, we can get a few for him

Oh My God!! Nani!!!

Hernandez?

Berbatov

Anyone

???!!!
 
Reported salary of 150k a week. That's 32 Million over 4 years.

I'm sure that they won't be paying that, certainly not under Rosel! He's been talking about downsizing and getting wages under control. That's media rubbish Sultan. That wage would put him comfortably in the top 5 earners at Barca, not going to happen!
