I do love this guy! He never disappoints.
Wonder why!
this has been going around today...
Probably too risky for them. He was playing well under Arteta and if he kept playing like that benching him would look even more suspect.lol where I think the club went wrong was not including Özil at all. They should have went the Lacazette route with him and kept playing him until there was no where to hide.
If Laca got benched for the rest of the season I am sure there would be no complaints from any of the fanbase. I am so regretful the club didn't go this direction with Özil.
The objective of the club is to win football matches. I feel like the pre lockdown form was over blown - but If he was playing well and they did that, I would honestly stop watching tbh.Probably too risky for them. He was playing well under Arteta and if he kept playing like that benching him would look even more suspect.

a) PR
b) Extremist cultism
c) Destabilising Arteta
d) Insult to "The Club"

Well at least you’ve reached the acceptance stage already. The mental fortitude is strong here.Thread should be moved to the history section until he’s officially not an Arsenal player or he gets registered in the squad again imo
Well there’s no point in opening and closing it once a week is it. Might as well move it to a place where there’s less traffic for those who want to discuss Ö.Thread should be moved to the history section until he’s officially not an Arsenal player or he gets registered in the squad again imo
shhh let the old fart yell at the cloud.. dont take away his last homeWell there’s no point in opening and closing it once a week is it. Might as well move it to a place where there’s less traffic for those who want to discuss Ö.
Seems like le bumsquad would love that though so maybe we should keep it in here
People are genuinely worried that we might be missing out on a lot of creativity by dropping him while he was playing well just before his axing.If we want to finish top 4 this season we don't have the luxury to sacrifice results for the sake of Özil............ by now everyone should know what Özil can do and what he can't do. His fanboys will always be happy with him turning out for 1 game than being invisible for the next 4, they are not Arsenal fans and don't care that his presence is hurting the overall competitiveness of the team. Only an idiot would think bending over for unreasonable people are worth it in some way. Arteta has given dozens of explanations for why Özil isn't in the squad and yet his fanboys still demand answers.
still better than our other options, so until we have someone better, we use him.The footballing reason is not training but that he is ****e and ineffective. Has been that way for years. What so difficult to accept or understand beats me.
