Mesut Ozil gets the number 10. Hopefully with his favorite number on his back now he will decide not to wear his invisible cloak so often.

Good win. It’s just Boreham but the players looked sharp right from the off. Auba and Laca looked scintillating up front together.
Except Sokratis, was pretty underwhelmed by his performance. Looked about as fast as Mertesacker and most of his tackles were damn poor/late. Looked totally off the pace. I know it’s just the first game of preseason and it’s most likely down to preseason blues but calling it as it is. |

So looks like Ospina is gone. Good riddance.
Next dump Cech back to Chelski and make Martinez and Macey #2 and #3. Martinez is already 25 years old. It’s high time he gets a chance. |

It doesn't look like we are selling any players because no one wants our garbage. Simple.
Problem with our garbage players is they don't think their trash and think they are world class players with high demand. Plus they are on pretty big contracts, courtesy from the greatest manager in our history back in the day. So we have a problem now of: 1. our garbage players not considering smaller clubs because they think they are better than they are but no other big club want them because their garbage. 2. they are on really exorbitant wages which only a big club would be willing to or can pay but no other big club are willing to buy/pay them because their garbage. Apart from probably a few we will struggle to sell the rest. Either way I am happy with the current squad although a class out and out winger to provide us some width when we need it would be nice. |

Even if Ozil doesn't retire from international football Germany will retire him from international football.
No diff. Better declare retirement now than face the embarrassment of never being selected ever again. He is not getting back into the national team either way after this debacle. I'm just patiently awaiting to see if Unai can bring the best out of Ozil again and most importantly, on a consistent basis. In 4 years Wenger only brought about half a good season from him and that's it. Been a bloody waste of money otherwise, even more so now that he is on 350k a week. |

Brilliant from Uli Hoeness, couldn't have said it better myself, especially the bolded parts. For footballing reasons, should've been left out of the Arsenal squad a long time ago as well.
QUOTE Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has launched an astonishing attack on Mesut Ozil, saying the Arsenal playmaker has been 's*** for years' and 'last won a tackle before the 2014 World Cup.' Ozil announced his retirement from the international fold with Germany in an explosive statement published on social media late on Sunday. He cited 'racism and disrespect' as a reason for stepping aside, after receiving criticism for posing for a photo with Turkey president Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Hoeness believes that, for footballing reasons, Ozil should have left out of the Germany team a long time ago. "He had been playing s*** for years,' Hoeness told Bild. He last won a tackle before the 2014 World Cup. And now he and his s****y performance hide beyond this picture. Whenever Bayern played against Arsenal, we played over him because we knew that was their weak point. His 35 million followers - that don't exist in real world - are convinced he has played sublimely when he completes a cross pass. The development in our country is a catastrophe. You have to go back to what it is: sport. And from a sporting point of view, Ozil has no place in the national team for years." Ozil has played 92 times for Germany, scoring 23 goals and winning the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. He played twice for Germany at this summer's tournament in Russia, where the defending champions crashed out at the group stage. The 29-year-old is now in Singapore with Arsenal for two friendly matches against Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. Sauce This post has been edited by sigheart: Jul 23 2018, 05:01 PM |

QUOTE(LordDenning @ Jul 24 2018, 12:01 AM) At times I find Ozil to be underperforming, but under no circumstance I could bring myself to agree to Uli Hoeness saying Ozil has been "shit" for the past few years. To be honest I don't give a two hoots on what he does for Germany or any of this political bullshit going on. Hoeness was probably just finding a convenient scapegoat for Germany's failures in the world cup and Ozil was the easy target with the ongoing Erdogan debacle. I, like many of you do not believe he was Germany's worst player and solely to be blamed. To be honest he was pretty decent against Korea and was perhaps one of the better players on the pitch for Germany that night.Ozil has won 5 times german player of the year since 2011. But, what I agree with Hoeness is, in an Arsenal shirt, Ozil, for a player of his quality, has been very poor aka shit overall for the past couple of years. The only time he truly showed he was world class and played up to his ability and showed some consistency was the first half of the 15/16 season. Of course when I mean consistency I don't mean he has to put in a 10/10 performance every single game. The players are humans and of course a bad game once in awhile is a given. But to put in one decent performance and then that many poor performances after that, some to the point of being one of the worst players on the pitch so often since then is unacceptable. |
