Stop asking such difficult questions ! You want to end up like Jacqui Oatley ?!!
Poor old Jacqui - still banished from the presence of The Great God Wenger.
Free the Jacqui Oatley two!!
I mean her breasts obviously.
Il Duce wouldn't be able to unzip her top ! 30 years experience did not include zip mastery.
That's why he made that Rapper Slapper from Paris wear Velcro.
Ah yes, but when he got to the bra he'd be completely fucked. Can you imagine him fumbling with those little hooks, it'd take him a month of Sundays. Poor girl would die of starvation while his cold, bony fingers were struggling.

He'd end up with the bra wrapped around his own head ffs.... and then kick a water bottle around her bedroom in frustration.

It's a real strange one with Mesut Ozil. Clearly a very gifted footballer, we've all seen what he can do. However at this moment in time, with the exception of one or two decent deliveries from set pieces a game, he offers next to nothing. I've never seen a player look so frightened when the opposition get anywhere near him. If he gets the ball anywhere near the touchline you can be sure he will either let the ball away from him and go for a throw or just collapse to his knees the moment any pressure is applied.
We've had players before you can almost carry as it's worth doing because you'll get that moment of quality out of them. A goal, an unbelievable assist...Pires being the obvious example. Pires however didn't look completely scared of everything around him. At this moment in time for me Ozil isn't worth carrying because he has all but stopped coming up with that special moment. Why, I don't know? Is he leaving, is he having a sulk over money or something?
It's amazing to have seen how amazing he can be and now to watch him be totally pathetic in most games. Yesterday summed him up when he kept getting into their area late in the game and just walking into players and collapsing...infuriating!!

I'm gonna throw up a bit in my mouth having to agree with you Swaley old mate but I do agree.
I think the problem is he is frustrated playing with utter shit like Elneny, Monreal, Xhaka, Ramsey, Walcott, Coquelin, and average players like Giroud and Welbeck and off form players like the Ox and Bellerin. He looks like he's just said "fuck this" and given up.
As much as I rate him I've always said if Wenger does not bring in better players and work the system to get the best from Ozil (and Sanchez too) then he may as well let them leave.
Ozil was awful yesterday. As was Sanchez, bar his goal. They both look frustrated and pissed off.
Ozil the legend in his own pants. When he is on form hes great, but most of the time he bang average and lazy. Wish he turned up at most games rather than the odd one. He does have the qualities to do so.
when i see ozil on the team sheet i fear for us, its like we start every game with 10 men, yes he is skillful and i dont care how many goals he set up which isnt many tbh ,i would be so happy to see him go in summer, what a waste of talent and money.

DB10 is going to pissed with you if you continue to slate his golden child
I was a big fan of his game, and still am to some degree. However, as others have mentioned, he is a luxury player. He is only equipped to play in squads that can A) finish off the numerous chances he creates, and B) have the players that can cover for his defensive inability.
Our squad has neither A or B. I would sell him while he's still got a decent price tag.
What an utter fucking wanker he was yesterday - not the only one by a long stretch, but it appears playing alongside Xhaka and Ramsey he has taken it upon himself to sink to their shitey levels
I honestly couldn't give a flying fuck if the bloke leaves or stays. I'm sure he'll be missed when we're swatting Brighton for six in sunny September, but come OT, the Bridge, Goodison, the Britannia, Etihad, Shitole and Anfield, he'll be as missed about as much as the ingrowing toenail I had a few years back
