Mesut Ozil

[OneBardGooner]

We missed Ozil big time at the inbreds today - Our pass succession rate was woeful....they were going man for man in defence and we needed his scalpel like passing to cut through the defence.... mind you the inbredscum would have kicked him to pieces...

I'll be honest OBG for once i think AW took a correct decision not playing him even if he was fit, he would have been kicked up and down the pitch and i think we need him more for the game against the Chavs but it does show we are still in need of better backup players if one man is needed so much

Agree that removing him from the firing line was the right move if it means he will remain fit for the run in (Sanchez too if not 100%)

There were one or two others who looked like they wanted to be removed today too.

And now he has the exact same chant as Payet which I think was taken from Celtic. Shocking form!

This might of been posted already but this is a great song for him

Be great if it caught on

Another stolen song, but that doesn't matter. We aren't known as a Club with good original songs anyway.

Last line needs changing, sounds laboured. It's repeating Ozil's name too often.

various clubs have stolen it big deal. it fits better Ozil than Payet anyway. Great scenes in the Stoke concourse last week.

Back in the day we had plenty of original songs for our players etc

Oh Rocky, Rocky.
Ooh to be a Gooner
Brian Marwood on the wing
We all live in a Perry Groves world
Ian Wright, Wright, Wright

Were all either original or scarcely used by any other teams

Even - Emmanuel Eboue' s white stripe song was great as was Nasri' s give it up but nowadays " he scores she he wants" is used by every club .

The part on the CL qualification clause is proof of what everyone has suspected for ages - trophies aren't a consideration as they are with other clubs, who stick trophy clauses in. It's all about CL qualification and nothing else. Pathetic.

Reports claiming he rejected a new contract

[MrT]

Yeh a lot of reports in Spanish and German papers saying he's off and unhappy with the clubs ambition. Could be agent talk for a better contract but would anyone blame him for wanting to leave?

Imagine being promised that you are joining a club with serious ambition, then get stuck with Mertesacker and Flamini and you're only outfield signing in a year was an Egyptian from the Swiss league who can't even get in the matchday squad.

Bild are reporting it also.

I'm of the opinion these days that ambitious players have no place coming to our team until the hierarchy changes.

We often berate players over wanting more and more money but i also think that with some of them there is a genuine wish to win trophies and anyone with any footballing brain must look at Arsenal and see a lack of ambition from the top down to the manager and rightly i think it puts players off coming to us.

What a sad, sad place we supporters live in these days

Absolutely. A player that's won the WC, and is used to competing to win the CL at Madrid turns up to Lord Fuckstick's pet project and is surrounded by dross. Honestly imagine how dispiriting it must be to get tanked in Munich like that? Imagine how much worse it's going to be when Barca turn up in CL? Imagine having gone from feeding Benzema and Ronaldo to watching shite like Wally and Giroud? Do you honestly think a WC winner (a proper one unlike Mertesacker) gives a shit about beating Villa in the FA Cup? Please.
A player of his class and at his age wants to be a ballon d'Or winner that's what they care about. That's why it makes me laugh to hear Wenker say "now with our financial might we don't have to sell any players"
No dickhead. Your piss-poor management and lack of ambition will always drive top talent away! Ozil leaving will only mean Sanchez following. But it's ok because Flamini and Joel Campbell and Wally and Giroud will all stay "loyal"
