Played better in the second half, more of that link up play with Laca and Auba please. I really want to see how Özil goes with Torreira starting as he definitely seems to give more steel to our midfield.

More clout off the field than on it currently.
Was an odd set up with three midfielders round him that like being on the ball.
Underutilised until we needed that goal & then he cut them open pretty well.

Mr Invisible in the first half. Was ok-ish in the second half
Stepped up when we needed him to.
dunno, I felt the others were much better on and off the ball.

i already wrote that he was much better in the second half. Not so in the first.

Özil at 10 And Emery Out
Stepped up when we actually got the ball to him instead of forcing the play through the left hand side. Idk if people expect him to teleport around the pitch or something
Yeah we are doing a really poor job getting him on the ball, he had to drop deeper and to the middle to see any action.. I don't mind him on the right, but then we have to do a better job getting him involved instead of having him just chase fullbacks and press.

Actually dont mind him dropping deep as he advances play better than anyone on the team. He's also good advanced though, Özil at his best when you ping the ball at him and he can use the pace of to lay off or turn

Yeah I like it when he drops deep too, but he can't do that from the right wing or we end up with no one but Bellerin on the right side, so if he's playing as a rw we need to do a better job getting him the ball in advanced positions there.. If he's playing as a #10, I'd like to see him drop deeper and dictate play more, he's so good at advancing play and evading pressure...

Yeah honestly **** this wing bulkshit. Irony is Ramsey is better on the right side of mid than he is a 10. way better.

Very well-known
First half more of the same but second half there were signs of life. Just going to have to accept it's going to be a slow burner for Özil this season, I predict he'll hit form up within a few games up until after Christmas before returning to bad form.
Have to add that agree with some of the above posters, Özil on the wing with Ramsey in the middle has to end.

When he becomes more involved we look a much better attacking unit. We need to focus on getting him involved as much as possible, he always makes the correct decision with his passes.
I also see him getting a few goals this season. He's been unlucky a few times with cutbacks, that won't continue for much longer. It will click for us before long.

Özil in a nutshell.
say yes
forum master baiter
Thought he was great second half. Anonymous as **** in the first however.
Yeah, this sums it up for me. Once he got involved more, our attacks were more dangerous.

Play him central or don't start him.
He isn't a right wing in Emerys system, he can't offer this defensive help for Bellerin.
You could see in the second half what he could do together with Laca and Auba.

He look much better in free role at 2nd half Özil isn't type of player to play him on wing he isn't going to help his teammate defensively
