    knowing us we sent him on loan without a recall clause - we're always doing stupid things like that...

    Tbh, we hardly notice he left, so I’m not sure what vaiue he’d add coming back.

    There’s also apparently a fee for recalling him, which just wouldn’t be worth it as he has been trash at Fulham and wasn’t that much better here.

    Chambers is pretty average really.

    Manolas apparently has a 35m release clause. Could be worth a punt.

    Ozil agent has said he is going nowhere, contracted til 2021 & would like to extend beyond that.

    Well he’s right about the first bit, Ozil a career anyway.

    But yeh, of course he’s happy here, earning a fuck ton of money for a part time role at best, who wouldn’t want to carry on doing that!

    We need to offload him ASAP tbh

    Can’t see anyone taking him off our hands anyway, unless we take a hit on his transfer fee and massive wages.

    He doesn’t even assist anymore either. A player well on the decline and we are stuck with him.

    He’ll go in the summer. When a manager shows a player he isn’t wanted, they never stick around. Especially one of this level.

    It’s funny though, as there were legions of fans telling the club just to pay him the money to avoid him leaving.

    Quite he downfall in less than a year - he’s become enemy number one for the national team and now a running joke in the most watched league in the world.

    Ozil is a better footballer than 95 percent of the Arsenal squad. His problem is laziness, nothing to do with footballing ability.

    Brings into question whether talent or application is more important for a footballer. I’d go for the latter every time.

    Agreed. Nothing more frustrating than watching a player with obvious ability but not mentally strong enough to produce consistently.

    Dafoe to Rangers on loan apparently. Could be a title winning move by Gerrard. A very smart move.
