Well done tonight Mesut.....really showed them whose boss and why you should be starting more often
If the game had been played in the Dark Ages he'd still have been off the pace
Yeah if only he had taken a note out of Comedy Iwobi's book.....
Ffs we have much bigger fucking problems than Ozil.
Mate, I know you lick his ringpiece but if the best you can do is say that he's not quite as fucking woeful as Comedy Iwobi, then that's truly a sign of how low your expectations are from our £42m, £300k per week man. Do you know what - I think he's better than Jenkinson, Nketiah and Elneny too.
No, he isn't the only or maybe even the biggest problem. But when he's killing our wage bill and has a chance to light up a big game, and comes on and makes Ramsey look like Pele, then its hardly a cause for celebration is it?

It's not the point. The point is we have an entire squad of underperforming overpaid players most of them far far worse and more ineffective than Ozil on his worst day.
But still yeah the way he cost us 3 goals there tonight was shocking.

In the way that Iwobi cost us all 3 goals tonight you mean? Honestly mate, I don't know where you're going with this. Cech was shit for 2 goals and the second goal was just naive defending all round. Wasn't Ozil's fault, wasn't Iwobi's fault.
Think you're missing the point. All the luvvies have been screaming for him to come on or start a game and make the difference because he's supposedly head and shoulders above some of the goons you've mentioned like Iwobi.......and the fact of the matter is, he was less effective than Iwobi or Ramsey when he came on. He strolled around like we were 4-0 up, allowed everyone to get back behind the ball and killed any attacking emphasis we had. That's the truth. You have to admit when you're hero has a shit game.........
.....even Abou had the odd dodgy five minutes here and there

My point is that on a night when Comedy Iwobi was appalling yet again wjen Boomerang was the worst player on the pitch and our team were like kids getting run over there is still this silly rush to slate Ozil even though he came on at 2-0 down after weeks of being fucked around by Dick. I stand by what I said. Apart from the wages thing he is nowhere near our biggest problem.
Wenger told the club he wanted Ozil to stay but the deal was in the hands of Ivan Gazidis and when Wenger became aware of the figures being discussed — £350,000 a week — he had reservations.@draper_rob

Surprised this one is entirely on Gazidis.
Not having that - if a manager tells the board that he wants to keep a player, then he expects the board to do all possible to keep him. And whats all this "he had reservations" bollox ? He either agreed with the deal or he didnt, cos he was always an opinionated c.unt who would push his opinion - making a comment like that allows him to say that he was right in wanting him to stay if it worked out, but it allow him a safety net to say that he didnt agree with the money involved if the new contract backfired

^^^ this exactly.
The amount of fuckers that still try to defend Wenger is astonishing tbh.
Emery has obviously decided that Ozil isn’t for him, and being honest our number 1 transfer priority is shipping him off this summer. It’s just toxic having somebody earning that much money in those circumstances, more so for the difficulty in negotiating other deals rather than the money itself.
Maybe he has decided that freezing him out is the only way to get him to give up this mega deal in the summer. We all know that if he was still playing then he would happily run down his deal coasting by. This will test if he still cares a jot about football and his career.
emery has been told we are getting rid in the summer and its there to see his attitude and performances aren't worth him making the team, at least in emery's mind. he seems to prefer iwobi because of his work rate and defensive cover and away at citeh i would understand that decision, however he should start the next 3 or four games, that much is for sure - cuz iwobi doesn't justify being picked on talent

If Gazidis loves him so much why is he adamant that Milan won't touch him? Apparently Gazidis has vehemently blocked Mancini's interest in him.

Two absolute myths mate.
His work rate? The odd little nothing sprint into a dead end or the odd drop of the shoulder just before he loses posession? Absolute myth.
And his defensive cover is jogging back about 10 yards behind the oppo attacks. Another absolute myth. Totally ineffective and now a proper goal gifting liability.
Without even thinking about "talent" there is no rational thinking anywhere on this planet that dictates picking Comedy Fucking Iwobi over Ozil. Or over anyone else for that matter.
The bobbleheaded cùnt is like a shitter version of Robbie fucking SAVAGE ffs.

but db10- and here's the hing- it's still more than ozil offers. when the game is stretched and we've lost possession and dealing with an opposition counter which player is most likely to run back and make a last ditch tackle?
being honest i don't see our performances as a team differ either way, but while iwobi is young and eager to learn he will be favoured against ozil who seems happy to spend most of his playing career on the sidelines living off his reputation
