I watched him play a fair bit. With my eyeballs. The stats don't tell the whole story. Even the moat ardent Madrid or Ozil fan will tell you that. It's why Madrid are letting him go.

Performance are half of it, though he still contributed a lot to Madrid's season, the other big reason is Isco and the desire at Real Madrid to regain a more Spanish image and the way to do that is with more Spanish players in high profile roles at the club.

Jaysus, Lukaku to West Brom.

And all the while Splash the guts of 90 million on a welsh lad, and previously 80 million on a Portugeser.....
High profile spanish players alright.......

Hope Ozil deal goes through, great player for the FF. Assist machine!

They've spent big on Isco and Illarramendi this Summer in fairness.

Ronaldo was a few years ago, conveniently ignored the 3 other Spanish players they have signed this summer.

If I was a football player, I'd be driving around to loads of clubs on a day like today.

What's grabbed the world wide headlines?

JPA

Why would Chelsea let Lukaku go?
Even if he is a sub most of the time so what?Even if he wants first team football so what?
He's Chelsea's player, he'd get plenty of chances I'm sure. Of course it's possible Jose doesn't rate him or trust him as he's too young for your typical Jose player.

Noone said that, but you know that already.

Andersonisgod said 'high profile roles at the club'. 3 young quality Spanish players.

At least they're doing something about their rubbish start. Shame we couldn't do the same. They'll be fine with the acquisitions of Sessegnon and Lukaku.

Lukaku is way too good for West Brom. T'f*ck is that all about.

Arsenal have completed the signing of Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for £42.5M, plus bonuses for trophies, bringing the overall fee to £42.5M.

I'm surprised we didn't learn he once broke his arm on a transfer deadline day.

I didnt think Jose was too impressed with him in Super Cup final even before the penalty miss. Not sure he thinks he is up for it. Explains the Long move to Hull if thats the case.

Corholio

Best thing about Transfer Deadline Day has been Quinn and MacAnthony.

FWIW I would give Torres the boot, 1 goal in the PL this year (AFAIK) a total flop for Chelsea, at least Ba and Lukaku have form within the last 18 months to bring to the table

The Spanish initiative is actually undergoing this summer onwards. You will notice the huge money spent on Isco and Illaramendi (also the signing of Carvajal) and also the increased first team opportunities for Morata and Jese Rodriguez.

This is part of Real's problem. Galactico initiatives, Spanish initiatives etc. Just develop some youth players and buy in other players to fit your system. **** the blue-sky, outside the box corporate bollocks. Also, back the manager. It shouldn't be so hard to remain stable when you have that much money to spend.

Bebe has gone on loan to Pacos de Ferreira.

Jim getting private texts now! You know it's coming to the end of the window!

Wigan sign Man Utd CM Powell on loan maybe letting them allow McCarthy go to Everton if they restructure their bid and thus Utd can perhaps get Fellaini

The male version of childbirth without the 364 day part, well unless you are a single mother in a Daily Mail exclusive.

So Fellaini to Man Utd depends on Everton getting Lukaku off Chelsea. So Chelsea let him go to WestBrom and screw Man Utd over. Well played Jose

Luckycharms_74

Talking on 5live now about clubs these trying to get done before the window closes. They were saying what could possibly happen is a loan deal gets done and then just sign the player in the next window
