What a creative description.
Ozil doesn’t only create art on the pitch, he’s a work of art by himself. Picasso on the ball and Mona Lisa with the ball ??

You have to feel for Ozil at times, for the amount of goal scoring chances he creates he should actually have a lot more assists to his name.
Nah I’m genuinely angry do you know how annoying it is seeing Ozil wasted playing with these retards pic.twitter.com/5tGa76u0bW

Ozil generally received a lot of praise for his display.
Ozil really is hitting bergkamp type of different gravy last couple of games

Small positives; Ozil has been ridiculously good these past 2 weeks. Xhaka likewise. Even Ramsey is getting into form.

Ozil is soooooooo wavey

Is Ozil staying or going? seem like Alexis Sanchez is on his way…
Ozil about to tweet “Ya Europa Ya” whilst Alexis packing his bags outta Emirates.
The difference.

Ozil has just over 12 months remaining on his contract but has yet to decide whether he will be extending his deal or leaving over the summer.
When you realise Sanchez & Ozil won’t be at the club for much longer… pic.twitter.com/mMhhm9iR06

Just let that sink in.
Think Ozil will leave tbh. if he stays he will have gone 5 years without playing a single UCL quarter-final.

Wishful thinking?
Ozil & Sanchez are staying
— Not Important (@meTTi14) May 21, 2017
Could it be a case of nobody wanting to pay what Ozil and Sanchez are demanding?
Can’t see both Ozil and Alexis staying with no CL football. Equally can’t see where they’d go.

Is it too soon for these kind of jokes?
Ozil was scoring worldies against Ludogrets and Arsenal fans were so happy… not knowing he was practicing for the Europa League
