Can't you see, he killed our game today, because he couldn't run, nor take on one or two players, gave Sanches, and monreal a lot of work to do, valensia was just free, we need someone who can run and driddble someone who is effective in every position, maybe isco, payet, Reus.Giroud is very good, ilike him, as a back up striker, but we deserve a player who scores atleast 25 30 goals a season, someone like Auba, Dembele, lewa, Aguero, kane, I think we deserve more than what we're getting,

Last but least Ozïl, the talent is there and we know it: on any given day at the top of his form he is arguably the best # 10 in the world and just need performances like this and the previous one to show it and remind everyone (what a pass for Giroud); will do a lot for his confidence and also felt he could've been more involved in the team play but that will come with game time (got 90 mins today)...

Equals no threat but lots of sideways passing... Did you watch the game or just high on wenger juice?
