I don't get the Özil comparisons at all, the only thing they have in common is that they are both Muslim and left footed.
hahaha too many people always try to link people from their nationality/religion when comparing players

He doesn't resemble Özil when it comes to his playing style at all. They play the same position, but very differently.

I'd compare Fekir more to Kaka then Özil. He's a great goalscorer and sometimes plays more upfront then as a playmaker. He's a true attacking midfielder.

Big fan of that comp actually. Big fan of that type of player, comfortable as a Second Striker as well as bringing the ball from deep and has an absolute wand of a foot when it comes to through balls.

Think he'd complement Özil perfectly if he stays, if Kaka's body hadn't fallen apart by the time Real signed Özil those two would have been absolutely ridiculous.

Love watching him but what's the point in buying a central player just to shift him wide? Should Özil stay surely Lemar is the no.1 target?

Well if Özil stays and we keep playing 5-2-2-1 then I'd say that Fekir would be awesome together with Lacazette and Özil.

If Özil stays and we're going back to 4-2-3-1 then I'd agree. Unless we're doing a slightly "crooked" version of the 4-2-3-1 with Fekir behind Lacazette and Özil with a liscence to roam around and do his thing.

Would still need a left winger though. At the moment we're already missing a right winger and soon a left winger in Alexis. If we lose Özil aswell we've got quite the rebuilding to do...

tall comparison, though. Haven't seen a single player come near to how Kaka played.

a player like Kaka is bound to burn out very quickly. guy had a ridiculously short peak career

I mean a 6/7 year peak isn't bad at all, injuries really f*cked him at Madrid tbh.

Sign him. Would rather have a team full of class CAM's than one full of ****ty wingers. We didn't sign Cesc because we already had Özil and look how that turned out.

If we are going to challenge for the league again were going to need 2 WC players for every position. Get players in and THEN look at shifting the deadwood.
