Last season Ozil got 5 goals with 14 assists.

Last season for Mkh - 5 goals with 12 assist. Remember he played for us and Utd last season. Two different systems and under a manager that had zero faith in him and spent less time on the pitch than Ozil last season.

But you still rate Ozil. Ok.
I just don't really rate Mkhitaryan s talent, he's too lightweight IMO we already had Ozil so why get him as well and he's almost 30 on top of that, at least Ozil has shown wht he can do in the past, Mkhitaryan hasn't really done a massive amount in his career IMO.

I'd personally have sold him and got Gelson Martins in, we can't accommodate him and Ozil and I'd rather have Ozil who is pound for pound more creative overall.

I'm basing my opinion of Ozil on what he's done for Germany, Real Madrid and Werder Bremen, on that basis he's got huge talent and the question is whether the manager can tap into that.
