Mesut Ozil has been advised to snub reported interest from Manchester
United and return to the Bundesliga by former Liverpool
striker Karl-Heinz Riedle.
The Arsenal playmaker is out of contract in the summer and has been
linked with a move to Old Trafford where he is said to be coveted by his
former manager at Real Madrid, Jose Mourinho.
Riedle, who spent two years at Anfield and made 60 Premier League
appearances, believes Ozil would be better served by returning to
Germany but fears he could still be swayed by the money he could earn by
remaining in England.
‘Ozil going back to Germany? Who knows,’ Riedle told Omnisport.
‘There’s a rumour that he goes to Manchester United. He shouldn’t do it.
‘Ozil is a quality player. If you see his skills, it’s just amazing
what he can do on the pitch. We would be very happy if he comes back to a
club in Germany, for sure. But I’m not his agent so I don’t know where
he ends up.

‘Best option is if he would, from my point, if he would come to the
Bundesliga. It’s a really good option because we get another national
player back in our league.
‘But if he is looking only for the money, then it would be very
difficult to find the same kind of money in the German league than he
can find in the Premier League.’

Lucas has been linked with various Premier League sides for some
time, even before his recent struggles, and ex-Chelsea defender Alex urged the winger to think about a move to the Emirates in the new year.
However, Lucas has told UOL Esporte: ‘Now I eat by following rules. I don’t eat pizzas and barbecue food anymore, despite how much I miss them.
‘But I am concentrating on improving my physical performance.
Whatever the situation with the national team, that is Tite’s decision.
‘I need to concentrate on improving at PSG. The season began in a
difficult way for me, but my aim is to win back my starting place and
the great moments that I had last year.’

Former Chelsea star Alex, though, believes his compatriot must move
on from the Parc des Princes to boost his chances of game-time.
He told L’Equipe: ‘If I was in his place, I would have already left to make an impact elsewhere.
‘Spanish football could suit him – he could take advantage of the space with his speed and techniqe

A number of top European clubs were interested in Martial during the
summer transfer window, but the 21-year-old attacker remained at United
and has scored five goals in his opening nine appearances of the season
for Jose Mourinho’s side.
It’s understood Arsenal are eyeing a move for Martial as they search

Martial considered the possibility of a loan move to Sevilla midway
through last season but Mourinho was determined to keep hold of the
young forward.
Asked about Martial earlier this month, Arsenal icon Thierry Henry said: ‘[He] is a far better player than I was at that age.
‘He can become a world class player.’

10 Possibilities In a World Without Twitter [Humor]
Just
a few years ago, Twitter never existed. It’s strange to take something
that’s so widely used today and picture what life was like before it. It
got me thinking, what would the world be like today if we never had
Twitter? Here are 10 possibilities…
We'd all have one less excuse to not being more productive at work.
Facebook and LinkedIn would start adding new features by copying more off each other.
Instead of holding a #winning record on Twitter, Charlie Sheen’s only claim to fame would be making the list of “celebrities gone off the deep end.”
Companies wouldn’t have to worry about what employees might tweet but really shouldn’t.
Without the existence of “live tweeting,” using your cell phone during presentations would still seem taboo.
We’d miss out on all the shenanigans caused by the Bronx Zoo’s Cobra while it went missing.
Asking people to “follow you” will seem self-centered or creepy, or both.
It’s less likely more than 300,000 people will know how “slizzard” you got last night.
MySpace might still get some recognition, only because it would be part of the “big three.”http://c.jumia.io/?a=46140&c=417&p=r&E=kkYNyk2M4sk%3d&ckmrdr=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jumia.co.ke%2Fbeauty-perfumes%2F&utm_source=cake&utm_medium=affiliation&utm_campaign=46140&utm_term
