I don't even think he's got out of 3rd gear but he's clearly had a profound impact on the team.

just wait till he's got his mate Polds & Theo to feed - he'll be awesome
He might not be creating chance after chance but i think he is influencing games and dictating play brilliantly. As we know, the runners in our team are out injured and thats one of the reasons he's not been assisting as much.
The problem for Ozil is that we have nobody making runs in behind. Literally nobody. The one game that we saw the best of Ozil's threaded passes was the one he played with Theo. That's just wasting his best ability as a player.
Giroud doesn't play that way as he doesn't have pace, but I'd like to see him vary it a little and try to get in behind rather than coming short all the time. Same with Cazorla.
Balotelli? No chance. He's only just tuned the harmony of the team the way he wants it. He won't upset that by bringing in someone like Balotelli.
This team really needs a Suarez type to complete the jigsaw. We have crafters and grafters but we dont have that explosive player to call upon in the final third.
Balotelli minus the personality would be fantastic.
Giroud doesn't have the pace to get away from the last defender. Yesterday he tried to knock it past their defence but he didn't have the acceleration to successfully run onto the ball. That's where a Suarez would really help.
