The last player we had who blew the league away, RvC, tried to do it on his own and ended up moving to Utd, where he showed it is possible to win it single handedly - provided Wenger is not involved. Give Wenger Messi and Ronaldo and it wouldn't make any difference. He'd play them in defence anyway.

You realise - this cocksucker is playing Ox in a back 5. This is where we are. I don't know why you are looking for the subtleties when we are a million miles away from the basics.
I've made this point before but when we had Cesc and RVP having to lead the team on their own, it was clear day that they were great players for us but couldn't produce magic for us week in week out. We're still waiting for Ozil to turn up in a big game for fucks sakes. I'm not confirming what you're saying at all. Ozil is just as much of a passenger for Germany and when Ancelotti arrived for Madrid, he didn't want him either. Even for Madrid, Ozil revealed Mourinho had to pin him and tell him that one or two good passes per game doesn't mean you've done your job. Over the past 4 years, despite seeing great players really carry the burden, we've been accepting the bare minimum from him.
