Ozil £42m
Ozil will take the league by storm next season
Next season is Ozils season..?
I thought this season was ozils year :/
This year was Suarez's year, next year is Ozils year.
Depends on what he means by "taking the league by storm". If he means tearing up the scoring charts, he'll likely be right. Ozil is far from a prolific scorer. If he means creatively, then he's wrong. With the right players in the right system, Ozil's vision would cut this league to shreds. But as long as he's feeding Giroud and Sanogo, he'll be at a distinct disadvantage.
Ozil's stat's are nothing to laugh at this year, he has 9 assists in his first season while being surronded by some chit players, while Gerrard, the media darling,has 10 assists in his 85th season in the pl, playing with the 2 most prolific scorers in the league, so i think Ozil will be fine.
Also, i try not be overly upset when a pundit says something negative about Arsenal. They are entitled to their opinions, blinkered or not.

Carragher is pretty clueless. He just drones on and on without really making a point.
What does amuse me though, is how he always bangs on about what he would do in some defender who's made a mistake position, like he ever was Maldini.

Ozil has 7 goals and 15 assists in all competitions. Not near his prime figures, but not bad either.

Carragher wasn't one of the best but he came through an era of great English defenders and distinguished himself at the highest level. He deserves respect. And other than his accent, he's actually a good pundit.

Giroud is shet but the rest of our team is better than Liverpool so STHU
next year is the year of the Hazards. Who knows they might even do something special in the world cup aswell.
Liverpool have massively overachieved this season. Fair play.
But clearly this is more down to form rather than the quality of their personnel.
They don't have more talent than say Chelsea, City or Arsenal.

Really, their defence is worse than ours, their midfield might not be as good as ours, on paper, but ours aint performing how they should be and LFC's are all stepping up so i wouldn't say our team is better than LFC's.
Carragher is a good pundit, as sick as it makes me feel to admit.

I feel the same way about Neville.
The 2 do seem to complement each other very well.
Greasy, yeah I agree. I don't agree with what Carra said about Ozil really, but then I've disagreed with a lot of things Neville has said, doesn't make them bad pundits.

Form in a 38-game league season?
The same stuff you say about Sturridge. They have great team chemistry and balance and the scariest starting frontline in the league. Plus unrivalled intensity and workrate among the top sides. Their first 11 is great, but they're a bit short on depth. Accept when you've been proven wrong, rather than STILL underrating the opposition.
"Form in a 38-game league season? "
So Liverpool have been playing the way they've been playing in those 38 games?
"The same stuff you say about Sturridge."
Funny you mention him actually. Sturridge has done excellently this season.
But he's actually a perfect example.
He's not the best striker in the Prem or among the top 3 on ability, by any margin. But the system his team plays in, has gotten the best out of him.
"They have great team chemistry and balance and the scariest starting frontline in the league. Plus unrivalled intensity and workrate among the top sides. Their first 11 is great, but they're a bit short on depth."
I would agree with mostly that, bar their first 11 being great.
They have some very average players doing a job for them.
It's down to the system.
"Accept when you've been proven wrong"
Bit rich coming from the same guy who posted that guff about Man U at the start of the season.
Quite funny to see.
Don't really care too much but I did notice last night how reluctant he is to praise Arsenal in any way. But we get used to that with the likes of Hansen on TV every week.
I did find it funny when he said he wasn't sure if Ozil could "get to the level of your Suarezes and your Hazards"... Like Ozil is some nobody or a kid who has never proved himself anywhere and Hazard is on another level...
Did he actually say that?
What a clown.
Hazard is a top player. World class, no doubt. But Ozil's better than him.
Shows how clueless Carragher is really.

-----------------------------------------------
I don't know about that, Hazard is a top top player, probaly better than Ozil in most areas and a year or so younger.
I don't agree with what Carra said about Ozil really, but then I've disagreed with a lot of things Neville has said, doesn't make them bad pundits.
---------------
It doesn't but when they're completely ignorant to more sane opinion it does. He didn't give much valuable explanation as to why Ozil can't succeed. Just said 'has to score 15 goals, for me' round that point I realised how deluded he is.
They need more former world class players on SSN or at least players that have consecutively played at the highest level like Gary
