Time will show. But he used to be unseen in important games...like Özil ^^

Why would you need a proof when you all ready know ?

Ozil's would be amazing as a number 10 with walcott and ox in the first team, he has world class qualities but he can't play on the wing and can't defend either

Ozil fits a counter attacking football style, the type germany played in 2010 and madrid under mourinho.

When he started to go blank was the times he was used in possesion teams : Arsenal and germany 2014.

He`s world class at leading a counter with ball at his feet, he`s average when has 1-2 opponents in front in tight space.

/explained.

You might have a point there, that would explain why he does better with ox and walcott in the team

Have to agree with you here, that's why I'm confident he will do better this season tho. Now he has so much pace around him that he can just launch them forward.
The likes of Sanchez, Walcott, Oxlade, Welbeck will boost him.

Sole problem is that arsenal don`t play deep.

They go up the field, making it harder for all the players you listed to shine.
Only good thing is that usually both weelchair and ramsey go sliding tackles, recovering the ball when defending and could lauch counters. But yet again arsenal lacks a true agressor. Flamini is simply meh.

my whole point, look who started it. the same person who started comparing kroos and alonso: ampoo

but unlike him i had and have no problem admitting that kroos does have his flaws and bad games. i'm not as obsessed and say he's ALWAYS good or well, ALWAYS shit... that's the difference...



you didn't read, huh? kroos played MORE longballs towards attacking players and still was more accurate...
really, this game against STUTTGART you're all so hyped about his SIX (!) most frequent pass receivers were defensive players and he didn't create a SINGLE goalscoring opportunity.



well these numbers are obviously just speculation but kroos never said "i want at least as much as müller" or something along those lines. and it was rumoured he wanted between 7 and 8 mio (which is what alonso gets now).
considering götze for example earns 12 mio. and thiago 8 mio. that's a reasonable request imo.

lol, never change squier!

interesting point, thanks for contributing. you're a real asset to this forum...
