Agent trying to make himself relevant at keowns expense. Careful he doesn't get nistelrooy'd.
Makes no sense him signing a new deal considering how lucrative a new club with a signing on fee would’ve been.I cant remember if they were all genuine or not but the likes of Cesc, Gervinho, Arshavin & a couple of others sat out last 5-10 games of the season before leaving.
There is also an old Nasri interview saying he & the club were both willing to renew contract with terms just to prevent leaving on a free.
Does Özil really sign away his prime years for the 6th place English club & no Wenger? That contract must have clauses.
I wanted us to try it when we lost Cazorla and didn't have Xhaka and were struggling to get out of our own half at times. He could be brilliant as the most attacking of a midfield three (let's pretend Ramsey doesn't exist).Do you think he could move deeper as we've seen with KDB, Silva, Cazorla, Coutinho and even Eriksen recently? Incredibly small sample size but he played there against Chelsea in the PL at the Emirates and was outstanding.
Oh, sorry, misunderstood. Agree with the time off. Thought you were suggesting he'd not recover even with the time off.He is carrying an injury. Why risk aggravating it and doing a koscielny if there is nothing to play for.
If a longstanding injury erupted this week then people would complain that he should have never been risked.
Stems in part from playing in other leagues. He himself has admitted this is a much tougher league and refs are less lenient...I love Özil and agree there little he can or will at this stage add to his game.
I would like him to stop expecting the refs to help him out so much though, sometimes loses the ball when he goes down expecting to get a foul
Other than that he’s ace.
This (2023/4) will be his best season for us, his Zidane Years.
Damn, I'm being made to look like an asshole now
Hahaha. Mate, most of us go to work when we are ill. We work through it as life is not for the weak.i am sure playing with an injured back is something you do regularly. If you were used to being a winner, you wouldnt be trolling a fan forum.

And i remember RVP playing with bandages trapped on him against Liverpool in the CL. Cesc was injured but played through it against Barcelona, even took that penalty that farther aggravated his hamstring. I remember real winners, real men playing on with bloodied bandaged heads. Real winnners losing their teeth on the pitch but trefused to come off because they had that passion and commitment for their clubs. In the early 2000’s players played on with dislocated arms. I remember John terry being knocked out cold by a high boot from Diaby I think, but after a few minutes he got up and wanted to play on etc..
May be I am stuck in the real men era of yesteryears. And Özil having a bad back right now not why people are mad. It’s a culmination of these sort of strategic injuries from him since he joined. I remember another season that Wenger told us Özil had a bad flu / cold and wouldn’t be able to play, but then pictures surfaced of him out late at night in a club. Then another time he was supposedly injured and needed rest, but was pictured in Turkey with his lady friend etc. Small things like that absolutely tick me off..
They were legit quotes?
I though it was a joke account.
**** this agent. Cant slag off past Arsenal players... Keown is a pundit now & Özil played average real or fake injury.
Özil was standing a meter or two away last week say something in private rather getting another man to.... ***** move.
No but did it publicly as part of his job at a pundit.Keown didn’t say it to Özil face though to be fair.
Created the most chances per 90 minutes in the league this season
What more was he supposed to do that’s got some of you all whipped up over?
To be honest, I was a bit disappointed in Keown that day. In hindsight, I'd have liked to have seen him detonate an elbow onto the bridge of RvN's nose as he landed."His behaviour towards [Ruud] Van Nistelrooy at Old Trafford brought shame on Arsenal, he will say it showed his passion when really it was bad sportsmanship“
What a load of horseshit RVN was a horrible ***t on the pitch who used every dirty trick in the book to gain an advantage.
