Mesut Ozil - the Diamond from Germany

(posted by Roku)

In September 2006, Özil was called up for the Germany U-17 team. Özil has been a member of the German U-21 team since 2007. On 29 June 2009, Özil was the catalyst in a 4–0 win over England during the U-21 European Championship final.

He made his debut for the Germany national football team during a friendly match against Norway on 11 February 2009. He scored his first goal for the senior team in his third appearance, another friendly, against South Africa on 5 September in Leverkusen.

 

This 21 years old kid showed his magical movement and technique with his German team in WC2010. I labelled him "MUST BUY" player. Why?

The first is because, Liverpool was lack of creativity. We don't have a skilfull attacking midfielder while Benayoun becoming older and inconsistent. He shown his creativity when German trash England on 27 June 2010.

Second, Ozil can become a great star. He is still 21 years old and can become better player.

Third, although he is 21 years old kid, his instinct could make him a goal getter midfielder. I counted that he make 3 dangerous move to England penalty box.

Four, he is better than Joe Cole. With him behind Torres, we can proudly called one of the Big Four of England again.

Inter Boss Rafael Benitez: Give Kenny Dalglish The Liverpool Job

Inter manager Rafael Benitez has backed claims that Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish should replace him as manager at Anfield.

Benitez left Liverpool following a reported £6 million severance package agreed upon by both parties and although the Reds are strongly linked with a move for Fulham coach Roy Hodgson, the Spaniard believes they should look in house and towards Dalglish for the most suitable candidate.

"I think they should look at Kenny Dalglish," Benitez told the Italian media in his first press conference as Inter boss. "He is the best man for the job. The owners should listen to the fans because they are unhappy. "No one knows the club better than Dalglish, and he wants the job and in my opinion he should get it." The former Valencia manager spent six years at Liverpool, winning the Champions League and FA Cup in his first two seasons.

Liverpool Set To Approach Roy Hodgson

Liverpool reportedly set to make a formal approach to Roy Hodgson to be a successor to Rafael Benitez in the next 48 hours. Hodgson who enjoyed a very good season with Fulham believed to be clear favourite to manage The Reds. Another candidate who is believed to be top candidate is Louis Van Gaal.

 Another news was about King Dalglish. The Sun reported that Kenny Dalglish has informed Liverpool's hierarchy that he wants to manage the five-time European Champions. The Scot won a clutch of trophies whilst in charge at Anfield between 1985 and 1991. Appointing Dalglish would save on any compensation payments to other clubs, such as the £2.5 million it would take to prise Roy Hodgson away from Fulham.

Former Liverpool goal-getter, Robbie Fowler trust Harry Redknapp is the best choice to replace Benitez. Reds has sacked Benitez last week and being linked with Astonvilla's Martin O'Neill and Fulham's Roy Hodgson. With Harry Redknapp, Spurs enjoyed a very good season. From a relegation candidate they turned into Champions League qualifier candidate. "I'm not saying they'll go for him, but he's done fantastic at all the clubs he's been at in the Premier League and so have Martin O'Neill and Roy Hodgson.""You want someone who has done well in the Premier League and knows how it works so you know, as a top man, why not Harry Redknapp?," Fowler told the Press Association. "He's done fantastic with Spurs [Tottenham Hotspur] and he would be a very good manager for Liverpool. 

Redknapp whose contract will expire next season, has proved himself as a good dealer at market. Something that Benitez always been criticised. There also been a speculation that the new boss will sell Torres and Gerrard to boost the transfer funds. But Fowler said ridiculous. "Both [Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard] are world class and if the new manager wants to win leagues and cups you need players like that, so whoever comes in will want to keep them. "Players like to win things. Admittedly you get a lot of money for them but if you do sell them it's very hard to replace them.

"Only someone like Benitez could take the place of a coach like Mourinho," he said. "He is a great coach and is a winner. He will find himself well in Italy because of the tactical game. Rafa studies everything. Inter have made a good choice. "And new horizons have been opened for the Argentine midfielder himself, who hinted he could join the coach at the San Siro. "Me with him? I don't know about my future, but I spent great years with Benitez. My football is his football."

Benitez will Leave Liverpool

Benitez is in talks to leave Liverpool after being told by Martin Broughton that there was a minimal money for summer transfer market. Benitez is believed to had a discussion about transfer fund with the Chairman, but failed to get the money and told the Chairman that he can't do the job without the money. Broughton seems understood the situation and offered a deal of Benitez's disposal from Anfield. It is widely suggested to give Benitez £3 million for his compensation. Although Benitez has four years remaining on his £5m-a-year contract, potentially entitling him to £20m, the most he could expect to get would be £16m.

Several sources, Benitez will be join Inter as a successor of Jose Mourinho. Massimo Moratti, has said that Fabio Capello as an ideal successor of Mourinho, but Capello denied to move to Inter. Hours later, Benitez confirmed that he will quit his job at Liverpool.
