Mesut Özil Thread (official!)

[BOBN]

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.

Been saying this.

Right now Ozil doesnt look a £40m player.

Suarez makes up for his mental on-field attitude by being a work house, chasing every ball down and being a team player. Balotelli does none of that. He stands and sulks if he doesn't get the ball and if things don't go his way he makes up soddy excuses like being allergic to grass to get himself off the pitch. When you're battling in the trenches and have to grind out results, like we've been doing lately, the last thing you need is Balotelli.

Absolutely. Balotelli is no where near good enough to warrant taking the risk on him.

[Penguin]

Yeah. The last thing we need is someone disrupting our harmony. Let's just get Suarez.

You penises. Liverpool are so awkward that they won't sell us the best player in the league, and Milan won't sell us Balotelli . The Ozil signing has pushed expectations way too far on the transfer front.

Manchester United manager David Moyes has admitted he passed up the chance to sign Mesut Ozil this summer.

Ozil joined Arsenal from Real Madrid for £42.5million, but Moyes claimed United did not need a player like him when they were offered him.

“We weren’t close to buying him but something was mooted a little bit before that,” said Moyes.

“We didn’t need that position at the time. I didn’t even say it was an interest, it was put to us and it was just something at the time we didn’t need.

“We we had Shinji Kagawa and Wayne Rooney and people of a similar ilk so it wasn’t quite what we required at that time. We were looking at different positions.”

Rooney has scored 10 times against tomorrow’s opponents Arsenal, since announcing himself on the Premier League stage with a wonder strike against them for Everton in 2002, when he was just 16.

“Arsenal do crop up quite often,” said Rooney. “It’s a bit weird. I’m sure they must be sick of the sight of me at times. That first goal for Everton does seem like a long time ago.”

“There will be further investment in the team in the future,” added Ozil. “It was important for me to know that the club matched my ambitions and they clearly do.

What a gullible fool.

[JonasTC]

Ahh come on, we have a great young team, we're not gonna see 4x10m transfers anymore, so tbh i believe aswell that we're gonna see few but quality signings in the summers transfer windows to come

[selassie]

I'll probably get slated for this but I haven't been that impressed with young Mesut lately. I didn't like his performance today and he wasn't great against Dortmund either.

I still love him though, he's a world class player and we have already seen a fair bit of quality from him.

[GP]

It's still early days for him. Still adapting to a new team and surroundings.

He's not been outstanding, but he's not looked out of his depth either. His quality is evident. Lots more to come from him.
