It's all been said before on here about Ozil. If anyone ever summed up the term "luxury player", then it's him. Few have his technical ability and he sees and does things that others can't. However, for 85% of the time, he's a passenger and that's hard to tolerate in a team full of quality players, let alone our shower. Absolutely frustrating bloke, who I'd get rid of tomorrow if we could. Shows once in a blue moon and almost never in the "big" games.
He needs others doing the work and others making the right decisions in front of him. I had no idea about him when he played in Germany, but had the opinion I still have, when he was at RM, or playing for Germany. At least then, he had the quality around him that could maximise his ability.
For what it's worth, given that he's probably going nowhere until his deal is up, I might try him as a proper number 10, centrally behind Laca, with Auba and Pepe or Martinelli out wide and Guendouzi and Torreira in centre mid. Imo, playing Ozil out wide is a waste of his ability and effectiveness.
Oh no you di'int!
Mate can you name one player that did deliver in those "big games" that Ozil played in? None of them did. If anything he was often our best player in many of those games - which I know is not saying much because the level of shitness was that high!

I can't because as you say, it was shit all round. Personally, I think he becomes even more eclipsed in the big games, but he was never right for us, because we were never right for him.
He's a classic number 10. But then there is a school of thought in the modern game that the number 10 role is dead.
A thought held mostly by cùnts. The same type of cùnts that piss on 4-4-2 because "it's like so like dated and like stuff dude". Cùnts.
Yep, I'm still a 4 4 2 man, but hey bro, as you say, it's just so last season. Can't we be on trend and play 1-3-2-1-2-1, or maybe 2-3-1-4, or how about
1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ? Yeah, now that I like.

As George Graham once allegedly cough said: "who says you can't play nine across the back four?".

You can actually imagine George saying that.
Oh and admit it....you counted all those 1s to make sure there were ten there, didn’t you ?!
That fucking Ozil song is in my head for some reason and I cant stop it
And what is the meaning of that line ''I just don't think you understand''
Understand what?
''We've got Ozil, Mesut Ozil'' What is there not to understand about that?
Believe it or not - it makes no sense! Its just a lazy left-over line from the original lyrics of one of the most painfully irritating songs of the 20th century - performed by a guy who achieved the impossible task of making Chris Waddles mullet look stylish!

Yep.
I fucking knew it. I also made sure there were ten 1s before I hit submit, because I knew some clever fucker would pull me up on it if there wasn't !

Two blokes with knives chased off by pampered rich modern footballer. Pussies. Hope they get the raping in prison they so deserve.

It's a shame and total waste of government money that we can't just shoot the *word censored*!
