Just a bit perplexed by the statements by arteta and leno this week about Ozil. He still trains with the first team squad, and arteta is not giving up on him...eh??? Dropping him from premier league and europa league squads and not playing him in the league cup doesn't sound like not giving up on him.
I do wonder what the hell is going on and that it must be destabilising the squad.
exactly with group of players supporting his stand....
Arsenal legend Liam Brady destroys Mesut Ozil and backs Mikel Arteta’s decision
"Brady told Keys & Gray: The Podcast: ‘I don’t blame Arteta over Ozil. He gave Ozil plenty of chances and he performed for a couple of months. Ozil just reverted back to type.
‘He’s not a good guy in the dressing room, he’s not a good guy on the pitch. I’ve no problem with Mikel bombing him. ‘(Ivan) Gazidis should have let him go on a free three years ago. We should have spent what we are paying him over three years – around £50million – on a good young player instead of having him around the place.’

Good to hear from Brady. Ozil is a toxic POS!
Liam Brady the king of Highbury
You wanna meet him. He's an ignorant cùnt.
Brady is right about the money though. What a waste of millions. Thanks Arsene. Thanks Lizard.

I think we've all guessed the influence of ozil in the squad. Which is why I've been saying him and followers need to leave the club. There is a group of six of them that have caused trouble at the club for 3 years.
I have also said that if he stays until his contract runs out he should be in the registered squad. If he ain't going to leave have him where you can keep an eye on him, and use him. By leaving him out the squad, Ozil became more influential because he would have assumed a martyr type character by performing well in training, gaining sympathy from the rest of the squad and challenging Arteta's decision making, like they did to emery before him.

If he stays until his contract runs out he should be sent home to train alone or fcuk off to turkey where he can spend his days sucking the balls of the human rights violater president - the one place he shouldnt be is anywhere near the training ground or stadium
According to Sky Germany, Ozil's transfer to Fenerbahçe is in a 'crucial phase' with the Turkish club wanting to sign him immediately. #Arsenal https://t.co/Xz9e2vmtRh
Erol Bulut, Fenerbahçe manager: “Mesut Özil's situation will become clear in the coming days. Mesut’s name is very common. It is not possible for me to make a comment before he comes”. #Fener #AFC @ZRAFC
