It's the same thing on the Newcastle site too, according to my mate. Their websites are designed by the same company, and so they use a database of players for squad lists and that's why you have all these players on their website with no stats.

Jorge Valdano (Real Madrid) confirmed that they made a bid for Özil and got rejected.

This is a great example of buying with no vision.

You already have Kaka, Van der Vaart and Canales in your team and you are looking to add another attacking midfielder to the squad .

Hope Özil doesn't join them (or Man Utd ) and instead stays in Bremen or join a team where he's really needed (hint us).

Hope he goes to Bayern Munich, he'd be brilliant there, and massively appreciated too.

yeah I agree, loads of the talented German players sign up there eventually. Mario Gomez signed there from Stuttgart after excelling at Euro 2008.

Nahh they already have Müller and Kroos who play behind the main striker. Both huge huge talents so like at Real, it would be overkill.

In all honesty I can't see him moving to us, not in this window anyway, where would he fit in? Unlikely that he'd be happy to sit on the bench / be constantly rotated, especially in the 4-3-3 system. Surely we'd have to revert back to the diamond?

We could easily play the 'Barcelona midfield'. A DM (Busquets), CM (Xavi) and AM(Iniesta).

In Chelsea's case: DM (Essien), CM (Lampard), AM (Özil).

All three midfielders like to help out in defence so that's a big plus.

And just forget about Ramires?

You haven't seen too much of Özil, have you? His work ethic is terrible. That midfield trio would force Lampard to take far more responsibility defensively than he's used to. Have to use Özil in a free role at the right wing in a 4-3-3, or at the tip of the diamond.

Gone to Madrid, was just on sky sports news. I reckon van der vaart is on his way out
