Same shit with Ox. Everyone is saying he's not "worth" 180K. Of course he's not worth that. Not in a sane world. But if you want him in your team in the crazy world of football then that's what he costs - more than that in fact, because it sounds like he's turned the offer down.

Refusing to get with the real world.
Refusing to play players in their proper positions.
Dropping players when they are playing well, persisting with players when they are off form.
No tactics.
No in-game management.
No ambition on the pitch.
No ambition in the boardroom.
No ambition in the transfer market.
No trace that this club is serious about challenging for the major honours.

These are the reasons our players are sitting in limbo, waiting to restart their careers next year.

Joke owner. Joke board. Sick joke of a manager. Joke club. Everyone can see it and they'll just watch, wait, see what can be salvaged and take their pick for free.

I agree with most of what you are saying but I don't think Ozil is that in demand, he's a luxury player and needs the team built around him. He is a world class talent no doubt but not a must have like Sanchez is for example.

I mean what kind of genius leaves two World Cup winning CBs on the bench to play 2 left backs in there?!? Takes 35 years management to be able to call shots like that.

I think that's the problem a lot of people have. Last player you build a team around is Ozil. Ozil's a refined part that you fit into an already refined engine. Stick him in a tractor like Arsenal and forget about it.

:unsure: Not sure about that logic applying to World Class players. So if he were to sign for a team lower than Arsenal they shouldn't build around him? Would he be a flop there too?

He's not a flop, he's one of our best players. Need to get that fact straight first.

Yes, it would be a complete waste of time for him to sign for a team filled with average or inferior players. Then again, in most cases it would be a complete waste of time for any top level player to sign for an average or inferior team. The tactics those teams have to deploy just to compete would make building the team around any one player an irrelevancy.

Mustafi misses the food and weather in Italy apparently.

Robbie's version of a rant.
