How about - played 62 minutes just 25 passes attempted, zero into the opponents penalty area, zero dribbles, zero headers, zero tackles, zero shots .... stats can be made to paint any picture you want ... fact is Ozil was a complete no show, he received the lowest outfield rating from both Opta and Squawka ... and you still want to big him up?
Just to put his non-performance into perspective, Xhaka completed twice as many passes ... does that make him twice as good?
As I said he now has a last chance to show up or feck off in Baku ... that's if The Don even trusts him to start .....
What a ting!! Its like you don't understand how a CAM plays, Ozil specifically. He doesn't tackle, tackling stats are pointless. Where does he play? Usually ahead of the midfield but behind the forwards. So I expect the bulk of his passing to be from the halfway line to the edge of the offensive box. The stat shows 66% of his passes were in the opposition half, thats fair enough.
As a CAM he should be creating chances, he created 2. Headers? Ozil doesn't header, so I don't care he didn't win any headers. Zero shots, that can improve, zero dribbles, who cares as long as he is doing his job.
"Hey ho the lights are flashing, lets go Ozil bashing", I bet you wake up and thats your favourite song!
