I wonder what Sanchez said to him right before the hug?

Alexis and Özil really do seem to have a good relationship, it's like they know they're head and shoulders above everyone else

If they don't, you'd need to question their IQ.
Özil, Alexis
Cazorla, Koscielny, Czech
The rest

Come on lad he was good today. Lots of smart passing around the box and rarely makes a mistake.
Although his one on one chance I kinda wish he'd let it bounce and drilled it on the half volley.

It looked as though that ball bounced like it was hit with a pitching wedge. It didn't run on as much as expected and he was left a bit cramped. He wasn't great this game but he was decent and he's making some really good runs into the box. Certainly he is evolving his game.
I know, but every time he plays, I expect him to do something magical. Coutinho is a good example of someone who keeps trying to make things happen.
Edit: Coutinho is still a ****ty player
Should've scored at least a brace, definitely not one of his better games for us, I thought he was poor. Still popped up with some decisive moments and I loved him sitting Van Aanholt down 
.
The pitch at The Stadium of Light looked like it hadn't been watered for weeks.

Still not got going yet and we're 10 games in.
Think last season took a lot out of him mentally.
To be THAT ****ing good and win **** all must be soul-destroying.

Mate, you're asking the impossible to be great every second of every minute.
Mesut has been great this season for ffs.
Who was it that said, he's not the battering ram people want to see, he's the one that oozes all through the holes and cracks. The unseen.
We have the best #10 in the world. Enjoy it !!

Özil's a much more balanced player now than when he arrived - he contributes all over the field & covers more ground than most on the team.

Özil is brilliant! I rate him!

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
Özil is GREAT but I've been underwhelmed by him this season to be honest.
Country: Iceland
6 goals 1 assist. Bossing a few games already. Getting behind defence every game now. Constant goal threat.
Some people wont be happy with him until he shows Messi level of stats.

Even better!
He's playing very far forward, further forward than even Alexis. It's almost like he's the striker . He's popping up in spots ahead of Alexis before he makes the run. He's having a larger shot volume, he's getting on the ball around the box more. Only once can I recall him dropping deep for a spell vs Sunderland, and that lasted about 2-3 mins.
Wenger is using Özil, Theo and Iwobi specifically to get the best of Alexis - they're attacking the space ahead willingly and almost sacrificially without the ball whenever Alexis has it. Ox seems to be doing the same from what I saw vs Sunderland - he's not quite there yet but there was a certain smart actions I saw Ox take and one of them were some of his off the ball runs. I'd like to see them ramp up the overloading of the box when the cutback or through ball is on.

Why do people find it hard to accept that his general play this season hasn't been anywhere near what he's capable of? To say he's been 'great' is doing him a disservice. No other player gets this annoying allowance. Indeed, our best players' performances (yes, Alexis) have been analysed to death in the past, even when he's scoring goals.
It's this complete bollocks that winds people up. I wont ever stop calling it out either
