Like many of you last week I sat and watched the Germany V Australia game with anticipation knowing that the German's had a younger side without Ballack and to see how they would do. After the game finished I had become very aware of Mesut Ozil.
Ozil had been given the biggun as we like to call it by the press after his season in Germany with Werden Bremen. His performance in that one game proved a couple of things to me. They wasn't going to miss Ballack too much, he has undoubted ability, an eye for a pass and also an eye for goal.
Its being reported in the English press that he has refused to discuss a new contract with the German club and Chelsea are prepared to beat anyone to his signature as we look for a replacement for Ballack. The other thing to note is that apparently Chelsea have been watching him for two seasons now after he first made his move to Werder.
With Chelsea also being reported as interested in Bastien Schweinsteiger and now Ozil it could be exciting times for Chelsea and with the age these two are, its fantastic that there could be a chance of signing them for next season!.
KTBFFH.
