heard he was at fulham to watch ozil… could be true!

Sir Alex Ferguson was not present at the open day. The boss is reported to have traveled to London, where Fulham host Werder Bremen – possibly eyeing a certain Mr. Mesut Ozil…

Fulham game hasnt kicked off yet..

 

Darren

I don’t think SAF would personally go to scout FULHAM, seeing as we are playing them 2nd match of the season.. So IF he is there, there can only be one reason in my books..

How soon can we have a confirm on Fergie at Fulham? or can we get one?

 

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 2:55:21 pm

Sir Alex traveled to Fulham a few times before AND after we signed Chris Smalling. The Fulham game kicks-off at 3pm, so we should hear if he is there then !

Hehe it’s true guys, look here: http://www.gettyimages.co.uk/Search/Search.aspx?EventId=101880364&EditorialProduct;=Sport

Just a warning though, we are playing Mark Hughes’s new-look Fulham after Newcastle, so I suppose Fergie could be scouting our opponents…

Are you sure? That could be a pic from anywhere

he won’t be signing ozil if he keeps playing like he has so far…..

 

Harry

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:26:22 pm

Whats Ozil been doing?

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:27:21 pm

Ozil hasn’t started the game, but werder are 1-0 up

 

Harry

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:30:05 pm

Bring him on! >:(

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:37:28 pm

Ozil coming on 😀

 

KR

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:44:31 pm

Why the hell would he want to scout a fulham pre season game that means nothing? If Ozil is in town that means he is there for a meeting with him and his agent for sure.

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 3:44:45 pm

Ozil getting alot of the ball already, 1 min till half time.

no sign of Ando hanging around training? I thought fergie would have wanted him back with the squad to keep an eye on him.

 

Darren

Let do it Ozil >:)

what are you watching it on mufc1?

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:24:23 pm

Gera puts fulham infront on 66 mins. Ozil gone very quiet.

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:25:20 pm

i’m at the game

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:30:20 pm

Gera again. 3-1.

 

MUFC

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:33:29 pm

Ozil just gave ball away sloppily twice within a minute.

 

MUFC

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:34:37 pm

4-1. Gera hattrick. Sign him up.

 

Harry

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:38:33 pm

Fuck Fulham anyway

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:44:47 pm

5-1. Ozil who?

 

jezz09

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:48:00 pm

Seems like Ozil has fucked up his audition!

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:49:53 pm

I’d rather if he didn’t play now!

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:50:32 pm

He won’t be changing Fergies mind with a performance like that.
Fucking. Awful.

 

Harry

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:51:14 pm

Is the game over?

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:51:45 pm

Yes. 5-1 FT.

 

MUFC

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:52:38 pm

Werder were 1-0 up when Ozil came on after 40 minutes lol

 

James

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:54:58 pm

Fuck..

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:56:27 pm

and in other news, Adam Ljajic has scored against the spuds. We should have completed that fucking deal.

tad/wee bit overrated?

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 4:58:43 pm

Nah just had a bad game.. Can’t get 9 goals and 17 assists in one season and be overrated, plus the World Cup showed his potential. Thing is it was probably the worst time ever to have a bad game 🙁

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:00:05 pm

Ozil could just be another Poborsky…

 

sprite

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:00:14 pm

when I said overrated, I didnt mean he was a bad played, but he is not necessarily world class either, nor someone who will improve our squad drastically..

 

Dyl

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:00:16 pm

that is actually gud for us. itll bring his price down. might hav lost form, but hasnt lost his class. come sir alex. show us what your made of!

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:02:09 pm

No its not good for us, Fergie won’t buy him now..

 

MUFC1

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:04:10 pm

I don’t want us to buy him after that game either.

 

jezz09

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:07:14 pm

@sprite, he’s not world class, but you dont get world class for 12 million, but he may have the potential to be world class. We jus have to hope fergie already had his mind made up before today, and he can use this to negotiate a better price!! if it doesnt happen in the next 3 days, forget about it

 

sprite

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:10:48 pm

I’d say we forget about it right away, mate.. sorry to be negative, but Fergie clearly wasnt that excited about him before the match as he said that he wasnt excited about any transfer targets.. then he wont be excited about him after the match either.. he was there to study Hughes’ new Fulham!

 

bill

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:22:08 pm

it would be typical of Fergie to come away signing Gera instead for 3 mil or something 🙂
He’s 31 years old, but in great form for the last few seasons tbf. He gets goals from midfield and is good with both fett and in the air.

 

Mike

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:41:23 pm

we were linked to Gera before he went to fulham on a free i think he only has 1 yr left on his contract atm

 

CJ

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 5:49:08 pm

Well, maybe Lass is a better option?
haha

 

Harry

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:03:39 pm

Its a dark day 🙁

 

Sir Alex

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:08:06 pm

Just got back from tha game. Och, what a pile o’ shite. I told yous there was nae fookin’ value in tha transfer market. Wee bug-eyed bastard is nae fit to clean young Tom Cleveley’s boots, no question about that.

Fuck all yous who doubted me. Oezil is shit and that’s a fact.

 

Fredster

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:10:46 pm

Gaffer, it’s an honour to speak to you. I take it Mesut didn’t cover himself in glory?

 

nasser

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:11:40 pm

that my manutd keep gon baby the best team

 

Sir Alex

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:13:54 pm

Cover himself in glory? The lad was utter crap, so were his teammates. Should have seen them surrounding the ref too – typical Germans! Mark my words Freddie lad, we’ve dodged a bullet with this Oezil character, no question about that. Not a Manchester United player. Not in a million years.

 

Watson

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 6:28:06 pm

I don’t believe for one second that is the real Fergie.

 

Sir Alex

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 7:18:20 pm

Just had the wee German coont on the phone, beggin’ me to buy him for 10 million now! He can fook right off!!!!

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 8:06:29 pm

I can’t believe everyone rights him off after his TEAM played so badly..

 

Fredster

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 8:27:59 pm

I agree. It’s as ridiculous as saying that our 0-3 defeat to Fulham last season proved that all our players are shit and don’t deserve to play for us, no matter what they had won us in the past.

 

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 8:36:32 pm

Thanks for the updates MUFC1, hopefully tonight is the night we sign Mesut Ozil !

 

anonymous

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 8:53:21 pm

A word of caution – we do not know what kind of character Oezil is. For all we know he could be a “big time Charlie”. I just hope Ferguson has done his research on this player.

It is known that Ferguson used to deploy spies to scout potential signings, to make sure they lived their lives the right way. He is obviously less concerned about this nowadays, as some of our recent players have exhibited immature, prima donna behaviour (Ronaldo, Anderson, Nani) plus Ferguson was also intent on signing Benzema and he turned out to be a wrong’un.

I know nothing about Ozil’s personality, I’m just saying…

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 9:00:19 pm

Spies? Seriously doubt that mate

 

Fredster

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 9:18:03 pm

@Darren, that’s true allegedly. It was in the autobiography of some guy who was head of United’s security.

Fergie was thinking of signing Chris Sutton from Norwich around ’93 or ’94 so he had a private snoop see what Sutton was getting up to in his spare time! Must have been something bad because we never signed him (thank fuck!)

Former United players have also said that Fergie had a network of “spies” in Manchester who would tell him if any of his players had been out partying when they shouldn’t have been! That’s how Fergie knew Ryan Giggs and Lee Sharpe were having a party at Sharpey’s house that time when he turned up and gave them a bollocking.

Anyway, I doubt Ozil is the prima donna type. If he was that sort of guy he’d have been making all sorts of comments every 5 minutes about how he “dreams” of playing for Madrid/Barca/United/etc and demanding Werder sell him and that kind of thing. Last comments I heard from Ozil he was saying how he is looking forward to the season with Bremen and intends to honour his contract.

 

Darren

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 9:44:52 pm

Yeah Ozil seems good natured if you catch my drift..

 

RedAlert

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 10:17:57 pm

I dont understand a thing about Ozil..If he is truly world class like most fans call him to be..then how come he is still available in the market? Isnt 12mn a great value..some top team would have picked him up by now!!

 

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 10:45:45 pm

Very true. Sir Alex could get one over on the CIA if he wanted to. Mesut Ozil recites prayer before every game. He ain’t no mad hatter… he is a good kid, he works hard, and would seriously fit-in with the Man Utd regime.

 

jezz09

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 11:39:40 pm

Maybe fergie is worried by the fact that although ozil suggests he wants to see out his contract, seems loyal, he has never renewed his contract with any club he’s been at. He seems to wanna spend a few years and then move on!!

WE WANT OZIL NOW, SAY WE WANT OZIL NOW!

 

always utd

Sun, 08 Aug 2010 12:02:20 pm
