no try am o. Arsenal fit do bonanza.
BTW Silva,Foden and Torres still dey. I no trust Pep

B.Silva I know, but who are those two?

daveP:
Thomas is Welcome.

For those saying He should be paired along side Elneny, hope you know Elneny is a back passer more than a forward passer. And he doesn't know how to locate Ceb better than the very Xhaka that's underperformning too. Just that he's the more composed of the two. Using the WBs formations with such midfield at disposal would be a very very sweet idea. Auba please o.

That midfield headache, I don leave am for Arteta jarey

I'm hoping partey starts and I want to see the formation and personnel on field that day in order to have hope

mostob:
De Bruyne is out.

Gabriel Jesus is out.

Sterling is a doubt.

Agüero is a doubt.

Everywhere stew

shey person no go stake arsenal away win ??

Spy360:
Your excuse on Southgate did not explain why Saka wasn't seeing the ball as he should. Was it Southgate that asked his players not to pass to Saka or the players took the decision themselves? Either way, you made no point.

Lol... But what timay said is true. How many matches did saka play for you(or them) to bring out that race card ish.

I guess if grealish was African, and he's been benched for Mount et al, the race card ish would have popped up how a talented grealish is African that's why he can't near the team.

Please, let's see a considerable trend before we'll conclude that saka is been alienated on the pitch and not just two matches

Gabriel Magalhes is our player of the month.

No one deserves it than him

Spy360:
We lack an AM to enforce a 4man defense against City. So we could likely see Arteta continue with a double pivot in midfield hoping that our wingers and wingbacks will come to the party.

Against small teams, we can use the 4man defence. We have "Ok" Ams for now in ceballos and Willian. We can try that out.

3 at the back limits us much, cos it seems as if teams are cracking the code(we played abysmally against west ham utd, and Sheffield with that formation). Against big teams I might understand, but against small teams where we need to hold more possession and expect to attack more, 3 at the back will limit our attacking options and movements

My 1kobo tho

The good old days

Ozil finding a good club let's say UCL club

lol...
I'm not the betting type sha.
But let's just watch and see

iamoyindamola:
Should we make a bet on ozil

Lol... Bet on What?

iamoyindamola:
lol
Which top team will accommodate the clown
He's done

Lol...
It's been long, but I know that someone here once suggested we buy James from Madrid, but it was still the same response you gave now that was given then.

Tune in to past two weeks now, and he's seen as a shrewd signing by Everton and the club is tipped as one of clubs for top 4 contenders.

You and I will acknowledge that ozil was really playing good football with Arteta as our coach. How you'll have forgotten so soon because of is exile is what I'm trying to understand

kokaneprodigy:
Anyone still falling for the clubs theatrics is just being conned

Lol...

timay:
if the organisation doesn't want a worker, the pay him off and terminate their appointment according to the law binding them together, which is the employment contract. It's not hard na. But they are reeling up emotion which has nothing to do with business

As in the emotions too much.
They just want the fans to turn on ozil for no just cause.
E no make sense na

kokaneprodigy:
The card they are accusing Ozil of playing is same the club is playing which is PR card. They want to embarrassingly force him out of the club for locking horns with the club hierarchy and avoid paying him his contract worth. But Ozil is not bulging. You can’t eat your cake and have it.

Also like I said in my previous post about the gunnersaurus ish. same way Arsenal is not a charity organization the players are not volunteers as well, the relationship between them is strictly business.

Reason I stated during Guendouzi’s argument then that we can’t be building a player at the detriment of results he could hit it in future and forget about the sacrifices the club made and jump ship. I am an Arsenal fan first before any player. Players will always come and go and don’t let them fool you about all those talk after signing that I have always loved Arsenal from the womb, it’s just cliché.

We can all learn a thing or two from this.

I swear....
It's just PR stuff.

Why I will always side ozil in this case is

1... It's not only ozil that refused pay cut, why is he only him that's marginalized?

2... If they don't want him, there are various ways to go about that than bullying him upandan. If they still insist, then they should pay him off. If not, then play him(after all, he's not even exhibiting Sanchez behavior of playing nonsense wen he(Alexis) was tired of arsenal)

3... He's within his right for his full pay. Clubs will be glad to have ozil in their team. What is the issues is the wages.

If arsenal says they'll pay 250k, clubs are ready to pay ozil 100k a week.

I don't see how this is a big issue here.

iamoyindamola:
This guy can't play at top level again

And who says so?
Does top level start and end in England or arsenal?

kokaneprodigy:
We don’t know the details of the “lucrative offer” Arsenal should pay him off, let him do whatever he wants with his life afterwards.

Exactly...
Me as an employer putting myself in ozil shoes, I don't see how ozil is at fault here oo

iamoyindamola:
And some people are saying özil is not doing anything wrong...
This toad eye fvcker is purely evil, you are not wanted yet you refuse to go, May thunder strike down wengay where ever he's

Lol...
Na everybody wan play for Saudi Arabia?
You no even see better club, na Saudi Arabia club.

If ozil still feels he can offer at the top of the game, do you think he'll accept Saudi Arabia?

If arsenal is serious about this ozil ish, let dem look for club to loan ozil that ozil is comfortable with. Let the club pay some of his wages, while arsenal completes the remaining.

With this suggestion, I don't see how ozil will still be at arsenal.

Who get time for numbers again?
Just get to know her and she'd be the one to remind you that you didn't actually ask for her number.

To collect number from a girl is to trivial too start writing all these essays for us.

Lol...
Interesting case from both parties.!!

*Sipping my drink and watching from sidelines*

iamoyindamola:
No we use full back mostly

lol,.. Na you know...

iamoyindamola:
He better start accepting the fact he's a left back now the better.

Accept which fact ke?

Has he been playing lb for us this season?

Kbs468:
Saka is operating as a defender for the Threelions tonight ooo

No oooo...
Southgate should stop nonsense ooo...
What's the meaning of that?

Kbs468:
on a serious note, is Arsenal being fair to Ozil and others being dropped out of EL group stage to register 5 goalkeepers only for us to loan out Dayan Iliev to Shrewsbury today?

I don't even understand...
What did we want to use 5 keepers and do? This is bad

Roland17:
This has become personal for Ozil and the board, sadly, Arteta is caught in the middle. He is still too young and inexperienced to get into that muddy situation. An older head like Ancelotti, Mou, Wenger, Fergie would have had a stronger and clearer stance about this situation.

I really feel for Arteta in this situation. I know he'll love to use ozil but his hands are tied
What's more, ozil and Arteta had a good relationship before. How both of them will be facing themselves now eh... Lol.

Well like you said, Arteta is really inexperienced. An experienced gaffer will have a way of convincing ozil to leave the club for another, or convince the board to play ozil in a competition at least.

kokaneprodigy:
Who is losing? a 31 yr old Ozil with a UCL and World Cup medal to name a few and at the tail end of his career being paid 350k in £ for doing nothing or Arsenal that’s yet to make a name for itself in Europe. Whoever is running this club needs to be fired cause he is running the club on ego and emotions and not business sense. If I am Ozil too I will run down my contract.

It's just so bad. Even if you want exile him from premier league games, at least Europa or carabao cup he should feature. It's pure BS to pay someone 350k and say you're punishing the person for not playing for a year.. It's like you said an emotional and stupid decision.

Player go on an injury for one year plus, and still come back good, how much more ozil who's at the tail end of his career and have seen it all. It won't move him one bit.
Next season, he might even go to another club and shine...
Who now lost??

ennyjay72:
e never reach insult,he was just saying his opinion

Lol... I no just understand the beef oo

popizaino:
- Ryan Giggs: 963 games, zero red cards.
- Raul: 932 games, zero red cards.
- Andrés Iniesta: 717 games, zero red cards.
- Philipp Lahm: 652 games, zero red cards.

4 Legends that never saw red!

I think iniesta got a red card against athletico Madrid in a champions league match


Modified... I'm wrong, it was a yellow!

Kbs468:
Mesut Ozil left out of Arsenal's 25-man squad for the Europa League. Sokratis as well.

I said it. This have more to do than just ozil not fitting into Arteta plan. Na only ozil and board know wetin dey go on for arsenal to totally alienate ozil from the squad

daveP:
A Paper Analyzing if the Absence of fans is affecting the psychology of the game, leasing to goalsfest upandan. I don't totally agree, but the analysis ks accurate enough. Those oooooohhh and aaaahhhhhhs by fans do aftect decision making by players.

But to be sincere, I think lack of fans affects the results we've been seeing lately. No pressure whatsoever, no motivation. You know, that kinda ginger fans brings.

Most of these big players performs more with fans than without it, cos they love the shouts and the singing of names.

I believe most of the results won't be like that, example Liverpool vs Aston Villa and man city vs Leicester if truly fans were in the stadium.

The only result I might believe with or without fans might be the man u vs spurs game and that's solely cos of the red card
