Is it over? Can my table go back to being propped up by 4 legs now

Over? Ahaha! Never...

We're in for the long haul, I'm currently wearing a tin-foil helmet stood on Sir Matt Busby way hoping to pick up walkie talkie signals, I was succesful earlier in listening to security guards and while I couldn't be precise on what they were saying I gathered this much:

SG1: *static*....can....*hiss*...see that....n...u.*hiss* tter?
SG2: On the road?
SG1:.....Y.......Yes.
SG2: It's okay, he's there most days.

feck you's really are a tender bunch :lol:

Not the kind of thread where you walk in and post a story with a nice little semi-hollywood dialogue at the end, a 'cocks out, guys' or a 'The plot thickens', you know. Either you read the latest five pages and then post or you fecking sit back and let others be the providers of news.
Let's see how many fish we catch with this worm
 
The big flaw in my entire argument is the idea that Ozil just doesn't have it in him to put in a shift defensively and thus needs a player to cover his ass, and that might be a complete misjudgement. I've no idea about his attitude, character and willingness to learn, and maybe he would happily try to learn the defensive side of the game to sacrifice his own attacking influence for the goof of the team. There's every chance Anderson did similarly little defending for Gremio, Brazil youth teams and Porto from what I've read, yet from his first minute on the pitch he's shown a real desire to put himself about and do his defensive work, and he's put in a lot of effort into developing his defensive game I think. So I could be entirely wrong about Ozil on that front, so essentially I'm talking rubbish!

I'm sure this has all been said anyway!
Özil played behind the strikers in Bremen's diamond midfield formation before the winterbreak. This was away to Freiburg, where the Werderaner won their match 6-0. Özil scored a goal and assisted another four.

---------- Özil ----------
--- Jensen ----- Hunt ---
------- Bargfrede -------

I can see a willingness to cover defensively, he did plenty for Germany at the World Cup, but he also does so for Werder in the Bundesliga. He has a strict coach (Thomas Schaaf), who doesn't like the idea of a player not tracking back, not marking or not putting in a defensive shift. He does a lot of ball-winning in his own team's area and is certainly not afraid to get stuck in (something that he needs to do, should he move to us).

There's a nice YouTube video of him I suggest you to have a look at, Brwned.

 

A senior Werder Bremen official has said it is increasingly likely playmaker Mesut Ozil will leave the club this summer, confirming "there is movement" over his transfer amid rumours of firm bids from Manchester United and Chelsea
Read it carefully. Read how these journos have worded it. Bremen DO NOT confirm anything of the sort.

It's yesterdays gossip re-hashed ....you know, the sweaty palms chap etc.
 
So once this thread ends, can we start roaming the Gourcuff thread ?

I'll roam the Modric one once Spurs are walloped in the CL (if they even make it into the group stages). I kind of like the guy and think he'd be quite good w/ us - just wish he wasn't at Spurs as they'd rape us.
 
Feck Sneijder - I wanted him as no chance we could get Bastian from Ze Germans but, he has chosen to play for the schmuck FSP ...

Then again after this thread dies and the season starts - all of us will be wondering wtf was the big deal with Ozil once Gibbo and Cleverly light up the league this season.

Fat Spanish Porter?
 
From the official site -

15:54 Another nail in the coffin of an imminent Barcelona move for Mesut Ozil. According to TalkSport, a Werder Bremen source has scoffed: "Barcelona? It is nonsense. There has been no contact and no deal has been agreed with anyone. We have already said there could be movement this summer but it will have to be at a fair price, with the quantity of teams interested."

Before the thread police arrive with batons a'swinging, this is not the same quote about the sweaty palms guy but just a final denial of any agreement with Barcelona. Also, as Sir Alex said on Sunday, this guy confirms that there are a lot of teams after him.
 
This thread is quite brilliant.

130 pages based on relatively nothing. A headless chicken can run around for an hour with no brain?

Here at the caf we can generate 4500 posts on rumour made up by the journos who have no brain at all.

Caf 1 - chickens 0

Ozil agrees

Is something likely to happen today or tomorrow?

The way the press have been speculating, you'd think he's on the verge of leaving, but Werder keep saying no bids have been received and no agreements reached. fecking media and fecking twitter keep getting me excited for no reason...

You on your period or something?

Dont be such an arrogant twat & chill the feck out. I have read the fecking pages & i've heard what the Bremen Sporting Director Klaus Allofs said. I didnt realise the time of the RTE article (14.09), I thought it was an up-to-date i.e. close to the time that I posted!

Seriously some of you lot need to chill the feck out, you're behaving like a bunch of kids throwing dummies out of the pram. We cant fecking sign everyone & apparantly this lad has his heart set on Barca if they want him, so if we sign him its a bonus but if Barca get him then it shouldnt be such a shock. Grow some...

I think most of us know we probably know we won't sign him but it's just something to keep this transfer window fun :D

We need one mega thread every summer!

Man, i enjoy a bitta transfer muppetry & its all Fergie's fault teasing the feck outta us, but there's some amount of lads on here that are highly strung-out for news that we're signing someone, which makes the Transfer Forum a minefield of abuse & counter abuse. Folk need to chill out & lay off insulting someone to make themselves MASSIVE...

I can imagine Fergie having a right laugh with Cathy.

CF: Where you off to today love?
SAF: Off to see Fulham play a preseason game.
CF: Ooo, interested in a player?
SAF: Nah, but you wait until I get home, the Ozil thread on Caf will go mental, it'll be hilarous.
