Mikel the master really. Insinuating there's always a place for Özil, we want him in the team he just isn't doing his part by meeting the standards of this club.
It’s funny, because even with his limited English, I thought Emery more or less got exactly the same message across. He even gave him game time...Mikel the master really.

This is the side of managment that Emery just couldn't deal with. The man management, using the media, communicating with fans.
One thing I was wondering couldn't the club take away his number and let him play in a number he doesn't want? Would hurt his M10 thing. Might make him pissed. Somehow we need to start thinking about how to move him on before end of next season.
Does anyone know what the club can do to make his life miserable? Force him to accept something or refuse outright playing in which way we could stop paying wages based on breach of contract.
I watched every game that season but I don't quite get the hype. He had some great performances but too inconsistent. Cazorla was better overall.
And that ‘off switch’ is why he’s sitting on the bench, under an umbrella, for an 8th place team instead of still playing for Madrid.I don't get it. His fans always bring up the 15/16 season as the best if his career due to the 19 assists. But they failed to mentioned that 17 of those assists were in the first half of the season. He was piss poor in the second half. Besides half if those assists were set piece ffs. That's Sigurdsson's territory
He was not our best player that season. As soon as Santi, Alexis and Coq got injured, the team unravelled and we never recovered. Özil was so inconsistent. Imagine performing for half a season in what is supposedly the best season of your career
Misleading quote. He was asked a question about the 343 formation and how he’d fit in to that, not about his absence.
KDB is yet to reach Özil (15/16) numbers in chances created, big chances created and assists in his best ever season (this season) in a billion pound team that won the league with 98 points without him.

17/18?Arsène and Emery definitely didn’t use Özil in a 3-4-3, not even many times...
17/18?
KDB has 11 goals and 17 assist in the PL this season already and 13 goals and 20 assists in all comp.KDB is yet to reach Özil (15/16) numbers in chances created, big chances created and assists in his best ever season (this season) in a billion pound team that won the league with 98 points without him.

So... Arsène used him in a 343?We have played 3-4-3 on and off since big 16-17...beat Chelsea with that formation in the cup final.

Well, you don't force out a player who wants to play. Hence the over reaction.How did you manage to go from my example to force a change to his jersey number to "they could kidnap his family too"?
As long as he trains and attends the games, you cannot assume he doesn't want to play.I doubt that is possible, but e.g. forcing a change of jersey number could be a start. It would probably hurt his wallet and pride, but of which are bulging and I would assume very important to him.

Exactly.Emery did this same thing and everyone killed him for it.
Protected the women at 60mph with tbe doors on his Mercedes Brabus tank locked, while Kola danced with death.I'm always dumbfounded when people bring up that mugging. Kola was even more in harms way during the mugging, but most people were more sympathetic towards Özil who was safe in his car and escaped with the women.

This is opposite to the Cesc and Kos situation when the guys just stopped training.
As far as getting him motivated, i think we need to get into more important competitions and everyone would get motivated (him included). He has partially downed tools because of his fights with the board, and I think once he we start playing regularly everyone should forget these events slowly.
