10/11 season transfer/rumors thread

i read in the paper that Barcelona look set to pip Man Utd for Ozil? and the fee they gave was 8 million. surely thats a mistake? he is at least worth 15.

If he would play for a bigger club, they would have to pay at least 25.

He shouldnt go to Barca. He wouldnt play.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Ozil has only 12 months left though, so Bremen may have to accept a lower offer.

 

[2Pax]

Real Madrid have agreed a fee with Chelsea for Carvalho, bad move IMO for Chelsea especially with Terry's lack of form.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Christian Poulsen to Liverpool.

about 5 million pounds. not sure about this tbh. he had a poor world cup and pretty much flopped at Juve(so have midfielders like Tiago and Melo though). Was very good at Sevilla though and played under Hodgson earlier in his career. Maybe Hodgson will get him back to his best again.

 

[Flipmo]

Ozil should move to Sevilla, or Valencia.

 

[DJ Manny]

^ nope homie he should move to Barca

 

[Duke]

^ nope homie he should move to Barca

And crowd up the midfield? Bullshit. He wouldn't get playing time.

Ozil needs to stay far far away from Barca and Real.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Barca's midfield without Xavi/Iniesta isn't the strongest though. Keita/Busquets...They need another Ozil type player. Ozil would play at Barca especially if Iniesta keeps getting injured.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Ozil needs to stay where he is for the time being and then onto Bayern Munich if he wants a bigger club.

 

[Duke]

I think he'd be a good signing for Liverpool. You're lacking a type like him.

 

[Bobby Sands]

we do lol. we have Cole and Aquilani. but id take Ozil in a heartbeat.

 

[Duke]

Oh right, you signed Cole. Hope he stays fit.

I think Aquilani will show his value this season.

 

[Pittsey]

Miralem Sulejmani to West Ham

Kenwyne Jones to Stoke

Manchester United have spent £7.4m to sign Bebe, a relatively unknown 20-year-old from the Portuguese club Vitória de Guimarães, the Guardian can reveal. The deal was finalised today, with the player becoming the eighth senior striker on the club's books.

United have paid the buyout clause to release Bebe – who was raised in an orphanage after spending part of his childhood on the streets and has represented Portugal in the homeless World Cup – from his five-year contract at Guimarães only five weeks after he joined the club from Estrala da Amadora in the Portuguese third division.

He has been recommended to Sir Alex Ferguson by his former assistant, Carlos Queiroz, the Portugal national coach, and a deal has been rushed through for Bebe to become the third signing of the summer at Old Trafford. It takes the club's spending to around £25m following the arrival of Chris Smalling from Fulham and Javier Hernández from Chivas de Guadalajara, with Ferguson retaining a strong interest in Mesut Ozil, the Germany international.

The United manager was at Craven Cottage to see Ozil play in a pre-season friendly for Werder Bremen on Saturday and, although he tried to pass it off as watching a Premier League opponents, the Guardian has established he stayed back at the end of the match to talk to officials of the Bundesliga club in the boardroom. There remain a number of obstacles to clear, not least the fact that Chelsea are interested, along with Real Madrid and, potentially, Barcelona.

The signing of Bebe has been far more straightforward, with Ferguson understood to have met the player for the first time on Tuesday when he flew to Portugal, principally to be a witness for Queiroz in a disciplinary case with the Portuguese football federation.

Bebe is described as a fast, technically gifted striker, right-footed and strong in the air, measuring 6ft 2ins. He has shown his potential with several goals in pre-season but his signing still represents a major surprise given Ferguson's recent insistence that he did not want to add to his squad and the player's low profile in Portuguese football.

Queiroz has convinced Ferguson that he may have unearthed a future gem and Bebe will provide competition for Wayne Rooney, Hernández, Dimitar Berbatov, Michael Owen and Federico Macheda, with Mame Biram Diouf having joined Blackburn Rovers on a season-long loan and Daniel Welbeck on his way to Sunderland.

All I can say is WHY?

Another striker?

I'd imagine Berbatov may be sold, or possibly they'll loan the new Portuguese guy out.
