Once Ozil settles in I do expect him to be amongst the best performers in PL, but his influence will be more akin to a David Silva or Juan Mata than say Aguero or Suarez. I don't think he will ever be scoring 20+ goals from his advanced position like say Cesc did, but I think he will be way ahead of anybody else on the assists chart.

He does need to be given time, I totally agree with you.
I agree with this, just to add to this though I don't think our game maximises Ozil's talents at the moment, he always looks at his best when he's running at defences in counter attacks, if we could find a couple more players with pace (one up front in particular) it would make him more effective.
