If we are supposed to be part of this elite group then we need players of this quality to back up such a claim. Because we sure as hell aren't winning the trophies that warrant our inclusion in that bracket. And just who is "catching on" to this anti-Ozil agenda? Nobody I can see. You get fans grumbling about him after a loss and then worshipping him after a win, that's normal. But that's hardly the same thing as concluding we don't need him at all. And yes, we've been getting more out of him since we've installed a better (I'd say proper) striker up front. There's a very promising relationship developing with Alexis and these two are a cut above anything else we have out there. That's why I said we need to add quality this January. The more we add the more we'll get from Ozil and Alexis.
