Mesut Özil: 2019/20 Performances

[Eaststander74]

It's funny because everyone is totally done with Özil the footballer now. Everyone. Most admit it, some are just too balls deep and/or feel they have a tribal connection with him and can't be seen to abandon a comrade. He's just a side show but, christ, it's quite embarrassing for the club. Getting shot of him excites me almost as much as welcoming Arteta.

nopes, thats just you. He is a great footballer and millions enjoy watching him play.

Strikes as one who will suddenly announce a retirement of out of nowhere when he feels he's done. I do think he has fell out of love with football, and that's irrespective of his talent and technique.

Millions of people millions of miles away who have no interest in football where Özil is concerned. You nailed it.

Inject these words of wisdom straight into my veins. Also have noticed a tendency from some posters who constantly ****s on other players to give Özil a free pass. But, what do i know?

You know enough to safely negotiate the quagmire of dung that is this thread

Football reasons? Of course not. This is the Özil thread. Özil has made sure football wont be a topic for discussion in here.

Would be my team of the decade too. Picks itself really.

He was a world class player in Real Madrid, probz the best 10 in the world at the time. Always been a luxury, cherry on top type of player. His understanding with Ronaldo was magical, a shame that they didnt get to play more.

What a team. Ballers all over the place. Benzema the weakest link by far though. Imagine if they had a genuine world class striker in there like Lewa.

I'm not giving up on Özil.
We'll see soon enough if Arteta wants him in our team. It's his first crucial choice in my opinion. The easy choice would be to bench Özil and try to get rid of him as soon as possible. Most fans will get behind that choice, especially here.
But I sincerely hope that Arteta takes the hardest road and tries to revive Özil's career at Arsenal. It's the right timing, he got married, left the national Team, disappeared for a year, it's now or never if Özil wants to finish his career on a high.

If Arteta can make this Özil to be a positive (more so than negative) asset on the pitch, that alone will prove that he has the potential to be GOAT!

It was now or never many years ago, when you know Özil could have actually saved Wenger's Arsenal career by turning up when Wenger needed him the most. Arteta's main job is to modernize the club, and that includes shifting the team away from 4-2-3-1 to 4-3-3. Will Özil be able to change himself to a new player?

Angel Di Maria and Modric belong there before him. If he was so amazing for Real why were they so quick to sell him?

Small matter of 3 CL titles immediately after they sold him too... Ouch. Seems like they identified what it was going to take, then acted. Unfortunately, Arsenal were desperate for a marquee signing at the time and Wenger was behind the times in thinking a pure No.10 was the way forward. Still, great memories when we signed him though.

Özil I watched recently is certainly no longer interested in football.
