I think it's also fair to blame Arteta and the club management for picking proven, hopeless liabilities like Ozil and Mustafi when there are other viable options that are either on the bench or have been sold/loaned out.

There's no doubt Arteta has improved the team in many aspects in a difficult period, but it's difficult to have sympathy if he's going to continue to pick players who have nothing worthwhile to offer in return. When you see a kid from South America and a kid playing out of position outperform seniors on a constant basis, it becomes even more baffling that you would choose to favour experienced wastrels.
Dont know why we arent playing Ceballos in place of the fraud..
