The Manchester United Thread X

The sky is caving in.

With Ozil, I'm sure Arsenal will be able to give our midfield the run around.

Didn't Ozil come out and say he wanted to fight for his place at Madrid?

As much of a quality player he is, we don't need him especially for the fee he's going for.
Dare i say it i rather have baines and fellani for 42.5 million than Ozil.

Genuinely not trying to troll here, but what would you guys think if Ozil came to us when it looks like you could have had him if you wanted? I mean, I know he's kind of redudant in your formation, but he is a quality creative player, and you need creativity from what I've seen. And you could have probably sold Kagawa since he isn't really favoured? Would you prefer Fellaini over Ozil?

Moyes has really ****ed up this transfer window for you guys I think.

No. Just no... That's a good price for Ozil, he's worth that. Baines and Fellaini combined are not worth that, not even close.

Half the teams in the league did just that last season!<br />

I've given up any possibility of us signing anyone today. This summer has been a complete disaster.

Yes, he did, but that was pre-Bale.

It's insane. I'd also question what City and maybe even Chelsea are doing, more specifically why they're doing nothing. Ozil just isn't the type of player you ignore if he becomes available, he's better than whoever else you have in that position, bar maybe Mata. €50m is a steal when you consider what good players are sold for these days too.

I would rather noone than those two at that price.

Where would he play in our system? We have both Kagawa and Rooney there. Moyes isn't just going to change the way United plays because Ozil is avalaible. Baines can push Evra for his fighting spot, Fellaini can play beside Carrick to break up the play and let him have the space to make that pass. we would actually have someone who can hit decent set pieces and have more muscle in midfield.

Baines isn't going to come just to push Evra, its a world cup year and he's going to want to be playing week in week out to try and get a place ahead of Cole. Likewise Evra isn't going to be happy to sit on the bench as his place in the French team isn't guaranteed. The only way Baines would have made any sense whatsoever was if Evra as pushing for a move away, and there's nothing to suggest he was.

How much reason is there for Chelsea to buy Ozil now though? Mata is on a similar level whilst Oscar KDB and even Hazard play there. Unless we buy him for him to be played out wide.

It's not really a formation change, it's just a different type of attacking outlet. Ozil can play instead of the right winger (which yesterday was Giggs...). Kagawa and Rooney have both done this instead of the left winger. A winger doesn't just have to be someone that can pace up the wing, it shouldn't just be that. And, like I said, we'd still have that option. .
