Robin van Persie and David Moyes hit skids

DAVID MOYES is facing a battle to win over Manchester United star Robin van Persie.

Starsport can reveal the United striker has yet to be convinced by new Old Trafford boss Moyes, who replaced Sir Alex Ferguson in the summer.

The Dutchman has told pals he is missing Fergie, who was key in persuading him to quit Arsenal for Old Trafford a year ago in a £25m deal.

It is understood Van Persie also has misgivings about some of Moyes' training methods.

Former Everton boss Moyes now has his work cut out to convince Van Persie he is the right man for the United hotseat.

Despite starting the season brightly, with two goals in the champions' first two games, the 30-year-old appeared out of sorts in the goalless draw with Chelsea and 1-0 defeat at Liverpool.

Van Persie cut a frustrated figure at Anfield on Sunday and looked close to losing his cool several times.

A friend of Van Persie - who has been the Premier League's top scorer for the last two seasons - said: "Robin isn't happy and when that's the case he can't hide it on the pitch.

"When he's frustrated he is capable of doing something silly, and you could see that against Liverpool.

"He feels it isn't the same with the new manager as he misses working with Fergie, who he really loved playing under. Some of Moyes' training methods are not to his liking either."

[size=15pt]So RvP left Arsenal "lack of ambition" and Arsenal now signed Ozil a season later while they lose to Liverpool. Now reports are showing that RVP misses Fergie and is unconvinced of Moyes, and apparently doesn't like his training techniques. His friend said "He feels it isn't the same with the new manager as he misses working with Fergie, who he really loved playing under. Some of Moyes' training methods are not to his liking either." You can read the whole article up there.

My question to you is, if Wenger were to buy back RvP in January window to solve the attacking deficiencies, should Arsenal accept him back? I know RvP in front of Özil would be one hell of an attacking duo.

Best Way To Sell A Domain For A High Price

The first and most important thing you need to do is switch the sense of urgency. In other words a lot of times domain vendors are in a bad spot because they don't want to lose potential customers, but at the same time they want to get ripped off or worse middle-manned. This puts them in a weak bargaining place, especially as domains have no fixed value.

To switch this you need to create a sense of urgency for the customer. One way to do this is by saying something like:

"Hi [Customer Name],

Thanks for your interest. The price of [domain.com] is $X. I have two other interested parties as well. So if you want to buy it, get it while it's at this price; I'm planning on putting it on auction this weekend starting at $X+100, so if you want to bid for it that option will also be open starting this weekend.

Best Regards,

[Your Name]"

That's how I'd do it. This way you get them to buy it as soon as possible if they are planning to buy it at all, without forcing them so much you scare them away.

I hope this help some domain gurus here

For those who believe stats isn’t enough to convince you, why not check him out in action?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zt32zpP2haQ

Now the immediate question would be, where will Wenger play his diamond? To find a possible answer let’s take help from the pitch map of the number of chances he created last season for Real Madrid.

As is clearly evident, he is someone who is a creator and it does mean he will certainly play in the Central Attacking Midfielder Role. This means Santi Cazorla would have to put his shifts out wide on the left and Theo Walcott with all his pace and trickery play our right. Jack Wilshere and Mickel Arteta when fit will play as the double pivot of the 4-2-3-1 with Oliver Giroud up front on his own.

Ozil’s goalscoring record isn’t bad either – in fact, Ozil boasted La Liga’s best conversion rate last season after netting with 9 of his 30 shots (that’s 41% accuracy – better than Lionel Messi’s 35%). Moreover he can shoot from distance perfectly matching with Wenger’s balanced waiting approach.


Tactical Analysis with Ozil in Starting Eleven of Arsenal and Change in Approach:

I would say Ozil would be the focal point of all Arsenal Attacks. As seen from the tactics board, The two wing backs in Sagna and Gibbs would give enough width on the pitch. Ateta once fit will take up the CDM role allowing Wilshere to push forward and join Ozil. As Bleacher Report suggests: The question will not be how Ozil will fit into Wenger’s lineup at Arsenal, but how Wenger will adapt his system to best complement the playmaker’s talents—consideration the German was not given at Real. The Gunners currently play a counterattacking game, which suited Ozil perfectly at the 2010 World Cup. He’ll be the first outlet from the back, and his ability to evade defenders and play the ball forward to the likes of Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will add a new dimension to the Arsenal counterattack.

Just have a look what I am trying to saying below


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Grp-I59dNw

Ozil cuts inside lays a nice ball to Khedira who does the rest. Let’s be assured Giroud will get a lot of balls like that this campiagn, as the form that the Frenchman is in, expect him to score quite a lot this campaign

Inevitably as seen from my tactics board, Thomas Rosicky and Lukas Podoslki won’t feature in the starting Eleven. Now this is certainly cruel given the start Rosicky has had a superb start to the campaign. Despite being penned in as a holding midfielder—in the role moulded for Jack Wilshere and Mikel Arteta in the current campaign—Rosicky was most active in the final third. With the way that Arsene Wenger’s designated three central midfielders shift and rotate constantly, the Czech playmaker’s decisions to join in on the attack did no disservice to the Arsenal defense. Given his willingness and desire to put in tackles a defender would be proud of (he’s quite adept at the sliding challenge), you couldn’t say he shirks his defensive responsibilities, either. But with now Ozil joining the Gunners, it looks like the plethora of midfielders Wenger has at his disposal, Rosicky’s playing time will be down to cup ties and coming from the bench. However there is bad news for Lukas Podolski.

How much Arsenal would be in the title race come April next year is quite questionable and debatable at best, but these are certainly good times ahead for the Gunners. They have almost rubbed off their debt, playing attractive football, the Wenger way.

Yes people would question their trophy claims over the last eight years, Arsenal would still be at the end of lame jokes claiming the dust on their trophy room have caused allergy to their players. But even the pessimist of those at the Emirates would feel this is perhaps the time, the azure skies finally open up. As one of my carzy Arsenal Friends would say, Come on You Gunners!!!!!

Özil: "In Madrid, only the Spanish are valued. In 3 years there, they never chanted my name. In Isco's first game, they chanted for him."

At Arsenal, We will Chant for you like crazy!, Ask Cazorla he'll tell you!



Benzema on his official facebook page:Thank you Mesut See you soon bro..

Does this means he will be the next Guuner on January .

Leon245 5 hours ago: Some things we can say about this:

- Arsenal made a world class signing, top 5 CAM in the world! Absolutely amazing!
- Real Madrid is stupid to sell him. I can not see any reason for that. They lost their creator.
- Barcelona is thanking Arsenal for that. He was making assist after assist against them.
- Man.United fans are thinking "WTF? What about us?" Well, Sir Alex is not there anymore. It happens.

Happy to see him in Premier League! Congratulations Arsenal!

By signing Bale, Madrid increased their chances of winning the CL by 42 percent. But by selling Ozil, they decreased it by 85.

he's so special to us because madrid developed him, he's our best playmaker since zidane & he's the best CAM in the world. he changes a game with 1 pass. ozil gave his all every game & he always showed up against barcelona. every madridsta is upset that we sold our best midfielder. arsenal will be 10x stronger with him on the pitch & he'll make giroud one of the best strikers in the world. good luck in the epl man, i'll be watching u guys every weekend & cheering on for you guys.

HATERS, IF YOU NEED MORE COMMENTS FROM YOUR CLUB FANS OR OTHER CLUB FANS ABOUT OZIL, I WILL POST THEM FOR YOU

Easyfren: Thanks for enlightening the haters although this may not change them.

That proud moment when every Man United and Chelsea fan in my street congratulate me for signing Ozil!

[size=15pt]We saw people batter Florentino Perez for selling a player after buying an £85m man for them, while we gave Giroud, Podolski and Cazorla the utmost love after we sold one of the world's best strikers to our rivals. For us, Wenger has gone from zero to hero after just one major signing. When we do hate and criticize, it's mostly directed at the right people for the right reasons.

That is all just to say we are one of the most mature and passionate set of fans in the footballing world, and there is no one other than ourselves who believes otherwise. It's weird really, but we should give ourselves a pat on the back.[/size]

[size=15pt]Leave us alone and face your own problem![/size]

Jose Mourinho: "Ozil is the best number 10 in the world and we rejected the Arsenal offer for Ba because they are now title contenders"

Most assists for club and country since 1 August 2010:

1- Ozil (91).
2- Messi (82).
3- Mata (72).
4- Ribery (60).
5- Cesc Fabregas (56).

Mesut Özil - Arsenal’s German Wizard -(m.b)

Mesut Ozil is 1billion% better than Isco, Lampard, Giggs, Gerard.
Thats why it took Madrid a lot of time to sell him because they know they're losing world best midfielder.

Mesut Ozil was nominated for Uefa Euro Team of the Tournament and the Uefa Team of the Year as his ability was recognised at both club and international levels.

Stand 100% chance of been nominated again and again!

Ronaldo will miss him badly

YOU DON'T NEED TO HATE AND JUDGE WITHOUT PROOF

WHATCH HERE:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Oqy2VDtUSo

faakay: Wenger doesn't like to spend big on player, but how come he bought Ozil for 50 Million Euros, it's too expensive!!

I don't think an average player like ozil worth that kind of amouth

Don't worry yourself, you don't need to know! Keep hating! Keep jealous! Na your job! Haters no dey get job than this.. When you tire and realize that e no profit u, nobody go tell u to back off!

lastpage: Moi, you be real crase!

But seriously, Arsenal does not need another Midfielder/playmaker!
We got excess of those already!

What we need is a top-class 50-Million Pound Striker ....even from a Brazilian or Any South America league! ;.

We will do all the playing, all the tap-tap tiki-taka .... But Nobody to put the ball behind the net!

Result: Fighting for 4th place! ... No trophy again

This Wenger sef, na when you ask am not to fight, na dat time im go pull knife like mallam Area Boy!

***Shakes head at Wenger-gone-mad****

Lastpage!

Your surname should be ''HYPOCRISY''

If the man no buy any player, na you go sey the man should have at least buy a player!
Now he buy one, u dey complain
Nothing in this life dey satisfy you
Even toto plus 20 cows no go satisfy u

theoctopus: Did you really read my post? Read it again, slowly this time

I no get time

FROM A CHELSEA FAN- 1.SKYSPORTS comment thread

As a football fan i'm delighted to see such a brilliant player come to Arsenal. As a Chelsea fan i'm twice has happy to see one of the best midfielders in Europe in Arsenal epl. Well done Arsenal, got a great signing , Ozil is a world class midfielder nd i must confess he's incoparable with any midfielder in the EPL, can only compete with iniesta & Arjen robben

theoctopus: I dont like ManU one bit but they did the better business today. Why, because they actually signed someone they need. That is the point I have been making. They needed a real midfield enforcer and they signed one. The idea is not to sign a fantastic player but one that you actually need. Arsenal's problem is not someone who will create chances or make good passes. You say you have signed the best 10 and yet that is Wilshere and Rosicky's positions and they are quite ok. You needed someone to play the song role and a good CB. Your defense is poor. You played 11 man defense all through second half on sunday, against a brand new spurs team that has not even blended. How will you handle a Dortmund? Kolshieny got lucky with a penalty and 2 yellows. He is a disaster waiting to happen this season. I dont mean to slate you guys like I said before, I was just discussing football. I understand this might not be the right time because you guys are carried away in the Euphoria. But I know exactly what I am saying

And then u got wiped by Liverpool
Keep consoling yourself
keep hating!
U really need cold pepsi, because this your jealous wont pay you a penny

Andres Iniesta vs Mesut Ozil

OZIL is the best, he plays like Ronaldinho & Okocha

Arsenal's official transfer incomings:

Yaya Sanogo (free transfer),

Mathieu Flamini (free transfer),

Emiliano Viviano (loan) &

Mesut Ozil (£42.4m).

Easyfren: Your problem is just paucity of knowledge on football history. Go and learn again.

I even have this for him:

From BBC.CO.UK and independent.co.uk

[size=15pt]
Ozil with his quick feet and outstanding technical ability, Ozil became a stalwart in the Madrid side during the 2011/12 campaign which saw the Spanish giants win La Liga under manager Jose Mourinho with Ozil again at the top of the assists chart, this time with 17. His form that season saw him nominated for the Uefa Best Player in Europe Award.

rguably his most successful season, 2011/12 saw the midfielder's reputation grow even further following his inclusion in the Uefa Euro Team of the Tournament and the Uefa Team of the Year as his ability was recognised at both club and international levels.

Whilst still putting in strong performances for Madrid the following season with an equal number of league assists to Lionel Messi and maintaining his place in the side despite the arrival of Luka Modric, Madrid finished without silverware and Mourinho departed the club.[/size]

dybaba: lol......Arsenal fans are dancing Azonto

YEs now, Be honest, we dey get bully say we should buy at least a player, now we bought two, bad bele dey jealous again

theoctopus: Ronaldo went from ManU to Madrid, the last bus stop in football! Ibra left Milan to Barca, the best club at the time. He was shipped off from Barca because he flopped and went to PSG to make cool cash. Ronaldo Delima left Madrid at the peak of his career. Same with Zidane. Kaka left from Milan to Madrid, again, the last bus stop. Madrid does not sell their best players at their best form. They are not a selling club. Dont argue funny argument

Park well, and you think European clubs are blind to buying deadwood like your Julius begger and sunshine star in 9ja?

U think Football is for passion these days?

Football is now super BUSINESS and a game of risk!

Presbulg: thank God you said trophy room., it's not like there's no trophy in it..atleast 30 should be there - chelsea and tottenham trophies added together couldnt even surpass arsenal's

U shouldn't have mentioned Chelsea, thats an amazing disgrace!

oh sorry, its called 'nairaland disgrace'

While isco is very good he is no playmaker like ozil

Mesut Ozil is the better number 10

Ozil is up there with Iniesta, Silva and Mata as the best play maker in the world.

Ozil is a key player, and is a great playmaker!

Ozil is in any case more times useful than Angel Di Maria

Özil was one of Madrid most consistent performers during the first half of the season, putting on good performances

Ozil is one of the best right now

Madrid is in the shadow of internal conflict this season, everyone in that team was not at their usual level but Ozil is still the more consistent attacker there.

Ozil only had rough start because Mou benched him a lot earlier this season. But since October he never went more than 2 games without contributing goals and assists, that's more consistent than any name there like (Guti, Isco, Gotze).

Ozil amazing back hell to Higuain was the reason of Ronaldo's winning goal vs United that qualified Madrid

Ozil does choke in the big stage. I thought this year he'd put that away but oh no his performances against Man Utd, especially Borussia and Atleti have cemented his status as a big game choker.

Presbulg: ronaldo,ibramovich,ronaldo of brazil,zidane,kaka all left for new clubs, did they get sold because they are not good anymore?? Think before you post next time... #blinded by hatred

This point is the point that got him blind

theoctopus: Ozil is not the best 10 in the world. Stop deluding yourself just to make yourself feel good. He is not even in the top 5.
