had a positive impact: - Take Özil out and play Ox in the hole (he
has to understand your the highest paid player of the club, your given freedom like nobody else and your even seeking even more money with a new contract you can't play like that ever and go AWOL)- Put Sanchez on the wing or up top but put Welbeck in (Walcott didn't track back near enough for the Alsonso goal)- Iwobi
has been bright
from the wing let him play there - Xhaka
has to go back in the holding
midfield role and I
would take out Coquelin because he could
've taken a foul on the hazard's goal.
