Today's game is a key example of why I don't rate Ozil that much. Stats say he created 8 chances but which chance was of such quality that you can say the receiver missed a sitter? Not one. And when playing a game where there isn't much space to slip a ball through behind the defence, most of the space will be front of their defenders on the edge of the box so we need players trying to have a go on goal and doing what Palace just did to us with their goal. Take a man on, try to gain a little space to shake the marker and shoot! A gutless performance from the team.
