mehn....those were words up there. I think both parties should make peace. Ozil made some valid point sha

“My position is clear, I’m here through to the last day of our agreement and I’ll give everything I have for this club. Situations like these will never break me, they only make me stronger”
“I showed in the past that I can come back into the team and I will show it again. I’ll decide when I go, not other people. I didn’t sign for two or three years, I signed for four and that should be respected by everyone.”
“Things have obviously been difficult but I love Arsenal, I love to work there, I love the people in the club, the real people, those I’ve been with for a long time, and I love London, it’s my home. Whatever happened in the last two seasons, I’m happy and very strong mentally.”
“I never give up on anything. I want to help my team and I’ll fight for it. If I’m fit, I know what I can do on the pitch.”
Conversations with Arteta:
“I can’t talk about my private conversations with the coach,” Ozil says. “But I can tell you I know my body well.”
“I was fit enough to play every game before the break and, apart from a small injury, it was the same after. My daughter was born while we were off so maybe I was not always sleeping perfectly, but this is normal. I actually had more energy and excitement to play because of her.”
“As a player, you sometimes have bad days and can’t always be happy, especially if you’re not playing. When you know how good you are and you know you’re not going to be picked, it’s hard to be at 100 per cent and, of course, you can get disappointed.”
“This is my profession, it’s what I love doing: being on the pitch, playing matches, showing the people, helping the club and my team. I fully respect the coach’s decision but I believe these things should mainly be decided on the pitch. After the restart, I wasn’t given a chance
to show what I can do. You don’t play 10 games in a row if you’re unfit, not good enough or don’t behave well. If I played these games badly and was then left out completely for that reason then I might understand, but this was not the case.”
Pay Cuts:
“As players, we all wanted to contribute, but we needed more information and many questions were unanswered. Everyone was fine with a deferral while there was so much uncertainty.”
“I would have been OK to take a bigger share and then a cut if required, once the football and financial outlook was clearer. But we were rushed into it without proper consultation. For anyone in this
situation, you have a right to know everything, to understand why it is happening and where the money is going. But we didn’t get enough details, we just had to give a decision. It was far too quick for something so important and there was a lot of pressure.” This was not
fair, especially for the young guys, and I refused. I had a baby at home and have commitments to my family here, in Turkey and in Germany to my charities, too, and also a new project we started to support people in London that was from the heart and not for publicity.”
“People who know me know exactly how generous I am and, as far as I’m aware, I was not the only player who rejected the cut in the end, but only my name came out. I guess that’s because it is me and people have been trying for two years to destroy me, to make me unhappy, to push an agenda they hope will turn the supporters against me and paint a picture that is not true. Possibly the decision affected my chances on the pitch, I don’t know. But I’m not afraid to stand up for what I feel is right
and when you see what has happened now with the jobs, maybe I was.”
Emery wanting Ozil out:
“It’s hard. When a player wants to leave and the club says no, the player must accept it unless they find a solution together. So when a club wants a player to leave and the player says
no, the club must accept it unless a solution can be found together. I don’t want to leave, so that’s it. In 2018, I had plenty of options that would have earned me far more money as a free agent, but I committed myself to Arsenal because this was the club and the fanbase I wanted to play for. In that sense, nothing has changed. Mikel knows my quality and I will be ready when he needs me. I’m not going into pre-season thinking, ‘Final year, I can chill I know I don’t play’. These are not easy times for Arsenal and I want to help.”
“I still have a lot to offer and I train as hard as I can, whether I’m in the squad or not. If you’re called in, you have to be prepared. I’m doing all the necessary work on the pitch, with the fitness coach and in the gym. This is all I can do.”
Stats showing Arsenal play better without Ozil:
“If you consider the circumstances, you cannot use these statistics. If you have to, it is more accurate to look at the data for my whole Arsenal career and also from the 10 games after Mikel was appointed not so bad for someone
who had barely been picked for a year and a half. People will always love or hate you, and the main thing is the people who know you and what they think. What the people outside say about my play or my character is irrelevant they just speak bullshit to make publicity and they
know by using my name it will bring them attention. Do it as much as you like. I don’t care, or listen to people who don’t know me. I didn’t get here because of them but because of the family and friends who I trust and are always behind me.”

Neobulletzz:
Lol we self get better things to do
Next time come with fact because I am sure there is nothing Iniesta did that Lampard didn’t do better or more aside from playing for Barcelona

Ok.

See ehn. .i don comot hand for una matter. I get better things to do.

Neobulletzz:
Lmao screenshot even said he was at his best playing AM

Lampard played CM too so

Busquet was the DM, Xavi and Iniesta were the CM. Now,if barca were to play their usual formation which they rarely alter,tell me who is now the AM. Even the screenshots your Oga posted above shows he played more matches in CM than in AM.

Neobulletzz:
You are the one going back and forth. I asked a simple question but none of you could provide the answer

I did but you dogde it. And you refused to tell us what made lampard better than Iniesta apart from his goals and assists.

Neobulletzz:
Oga stop this your lie
Iniesta played AM and also played on the wings too

The question is did he played there consistently? Is AM is primary position? Even the part you screenshot already shows who the liar is.

forgiveness:
What is the function of Lampard if he doesn't assist?

Of course,that is his function since he is an AM. Using goals and assists to rate him higher than Iniesta is not so valid since they don't play the same role.

Neobulletzz:
Lol

Going back and forth with you on this is time and resource wastage. I won't be surprised if you wake up tomorrow and tell us Drogba hs better than Henry. Chelsea fans sef

Neobulletzz:
Oga most of what you listed up there, Lampard have more than Iniesta

I would ask you again what can Iniesta do better than Lampard

Nothing bro. .Lampard better pass. He is even currently the best midfielder in the world.
Satisfied now.

Neobulletzz:
Lmao passes, through balls, ball recovery and retention

Please bring out the total career stat for these for the two players

e be like say most of una for here think say na only goals and assists Lampard sabi do

Then tell us what lampard can do apart from goals and assists na. You have been avoiding that question since. TELL US

Neobulletzz:
Oga at least I said something that Lampard did better na but you guys should just name a thing Iniesta is better at than Lampard, you can’t mention one

I have said it someone like you would say Valdes is a better goalkeeper then Cech because Valdes played for Barca and have more trophy cabinet

Why u dey shift goalpost oga? Wetin concern Valdes and Cech for this matter?
Now to your question Passes,through balls,dribbling,ball recovery and retention, in fact as far as all midfield aspects are concerned,Iniesta better pass. Also,you are using goals and assists to judge between a player playing all his game as an AM/SS and a player playing as a CM. .na wa for you o

Neobulletzz:
The world don’t know shit

You people can’t put out that one thing Iniesta does or can do more than Lampard. I still dey wait make una talk am, none of una fit talk just one thing he can do better and back it up

Una dey say he sabi control midfield pass Lampard, Please How?
Because he stands on one place and be making turns up and down, na that one be control midfield

Because Iniesta played for Barca abi

Oga Iniesta played wing too so

And again Lampard never played as a second striker for Chelsea. Bring out where he played second striker for Chelsea

All i see here is ranting.
What was Lampard's role during his playing days?
How many individual awards did he won with all his goals and assists?
You were shouting 2ND BEST PLAYER behind Ronaldinho before i shut you up with fact. Now,you don change am to goals and assists. Lampard won't be the first to paint EPL with goals. Yaya Toure also did during his time at man city.

Neobulletzz:
Wooo Oga I don tire if una no fit put out just one thing Iniesta is better at than Lampard

Person go just stand for one place dey turn, na that one be ball, na Wetin he better pass Lampard at be that

Now, tell me how many individual awards did lampard won with his goals and assists? Moreso, both don't even play the same role

Neobulletzz:
Oga tell me something from the all round play that Iniesta is better at than Lampard

Una just dey dribble una self since morning

Make una mention the thing wey Iniesta sabi or do better than Lampard, una no fit talk

Because say Iniesta play for Barca

There is nothing like dribbling you.... Lampard May be a better goalscorer but as far as Midfield is concerned, Iniesta better pass. Now ,can you tell me the position both played at their respective club.

Neobulletzz:
Lol I don’t know why you people are saying we should put goals aside but I have heard, no wahala and I said you people should tell me other things aside goals that make Iniesta better, you can’t tell me

Lampard had more assists than the iniesta
Was the second best player in the world behind Ronaldinho
I am still asking for what make iniesta better, please answer, because he played for Barca

Why are you so attached on this SECOND BEST PLAYER of a thing? Between 2009 and 2012, One of or both Xavi and Iniesta have finished in the top three. There was a time both were even behind Messi. I think Iniesta even won Euro best player award. You can't use only goals and assists to compare two MFs. Their all round play should come first.

Neobulletzz:
Guy I don remove goals na. No talk goals again

What can Iniesta do better than him?

lolz...You are still asking me the same question. Without goals,what makes lampard better than the two players?

andrewbaba44:
Leave those ones

They know the truth in their mind

Even english fans are yet to decide who is better between lampard and gerrard but here you are seeing deluded chelsea fans jumping to iniesta comparism

Lampard is good, I admire him so much but to say he is better than the two is just ....komeknish. Those people who said so are full of EMOTIVE PREJUDICE (komekn's voice)

Neobulletzz:
Ogbeni I don tell una make una forget goals make una talk another thing wey Iniesta better pass Lampard and drop the stats, una no gree una just dey shout he better pass Lampard

How? What can iniest do better than Lampard

Una just dey shout like say Iniesta no play wing

Remove Lampard's goals and tell us What else he can offer bro

Chelsea fans sef... Lampard better than Xavi and Iniesta. make I siddon dey look una

timay:
Just because wolves packed bus?

we all know that is how they play from the get go

The match is not just about tactics,it has to do with mental strength also. You see,As arsenal is to FA cup so is Sevilla to UEL.

andrewbaba44:
Don’t be surprised united will park the bus and wait for a chance for pk so Bruno penaldes will convert

lolz. . .na their way.

komekn:
The context is comparison, and it's the degree comparative proficiency. Nobody said he does not but the degree to which he does. The dribbling of Pépé is not the same as Kalu, it very simple comparison

Taking each of these particular individual player attributes, tell me one in which or several that Victor Osimhen is better than or exceeds Tega with. That's the QUESTION ❓ ❓ ❓

In your opinion.

He is not better than Osimhen. Period!

komekn:
Technical ability, first touch, one on one domination, Skill and dribbling, positional awareness, two feet proficiency, shooting and general unpredictability and yes you could add BLISTERING PACE.

So Osimehn doesn't possess those qualities too abi? Now,if this is coming from another moniker against Tammy,you will be shouting Prejudice yen yen yen.

With Sevilla qualifying,the probability of man u winning is 45%. BTW,the quality of football in EPL is fast becoming degusting.

TheSuperNerd:
Lol... You know... I don't know whether you are wishing him well or mocking him. I just don't know. Lol... Latvia kwa?

Well... He is not getting any younger knowing he uses his "Football age" so at this stage I think Lokosa seeks where he will play and earn good money. Don't know if he will like the Latvia "financial" package. It's up to him.

I am not mocking him bro. .He needs somewhere to kickstart his career again so he could RISE.

TheSuperNerd:
Naah. Was in Tunisia. He was released. He's a free agent for now until something pops up for him.

Ok bro. I pray he finds his way to latvia. His fellow bredas are painting the place red.

andrewbaba44:
Lol

Haba , british lokosa ke

Meanwhile where is lokosa ?

He should be in Egypt or one of those African clubs.

andrewbaba44:
Baba tammy na average player nah , Gabby J firmino and lacazette are better than him

He did so well this season and thats all i am trying to say and kudos should be given rather than speaking bad of him when its all clear that they are just bias

You are not getting my point,i was not comparing him with them. What i am implying is that if those strikers are not scoring,they will still influence the match one way or the other by either assisting or creating chances. Tammy,without the goals is just like a british Lokosa. . .Lol

Edopesin:
Do you know how much Abraham would have cost interested teams? Why would he want to leave when his place in the team was already cement barring the injury that halted his run

Look at the teams those players went to were obviously better than their teams
Salzburg- Dortmund
Liepzig- Chelsea
Lille-Napoli

I doubt Osimhen would have gone to Napoli if Chelsea or Arsenal made a bid. He is ambitious enough to want to play in the highest level of competitive football

Well,let's see what happens with the arrival of Werner.

MetalJigsaw:
where is kubos former club

barca

andrewbaba44:
Lol

I just smile most times because they all know the truth in their minds despite pouring out their anger

Of course. Tammy is good but he need to improve his all round play. Strikers' duty is not just to score nowaday,he needs to add something else apart from goals. Gabby J,Firmino and Laca are perfect examples.
