Ozil Trends On Twitter As Arsenal’s Horrific Run Continues
German playmaker, Mesut Ozil, has made the headlines again following yet another horror show from his North London employers, Arsenal, at Goodison Park on Saturday.
Their latest league defeat to Everton, a seventh in 10 games, means Mikel Arteta’s side have now taken just two points from a possible 21 since beating Manchester United on November 1.
They sit 15th in the table and could end the weekend as low as 16th and just two points above the drop zone. It is the club’s worst start to a season since 1974-75.
This is no blip, this is a full blown crisis and if something does not change quickly then the Gunners are going to spend the first half of 2021 in a relegation battle.
Arteta says he needs time, but he is not going to get it if he cannot find a way of turning things around quickly.

This is now a run of results that few coaches would be able to survive, and there is little sign on the pitch right now that the players are doing all they can to take the heat off their manager.
Arsenal’s most critical problem has been the lack of goals, as talismanic Gabonese, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has struggled in front of goal all season. Last season’s golden boot winner’s strike against Southampton on Wednesday night was only his second in the league, statistics which explain Arsenal’s downward plunge.
Willian, brought in during the summer as a player who could make an immediate difference, was an embarrassment during the first half and really should have been replaced at half-time, such was his obvious lack of effort.
With Arteta’s key men currently out of their depths, fans have continued to call for the reinstallation of midfield maestro, Mesut Ozil to Arsenal’s first team, as many believe his creativity and craft can make all the difference in reloading the Gunners’ blank ammunitions.
Ozil was frozen out of the team towards the end of last season over a row with Manager, Mikel Arteta. With the commencement of the new season, he was frozen out of Arsenal’s Premier League and Europa league squads, a bold statement from the gaffer.
With Arsenal’s form festering quickly by the day and the inability of the likes of Willian to provide the need magic behind the strikers, Arteta may have to turn to a proven class act to save his job, but then, the Spanish gaffer may still require a festive miracle rectify the damage to Arsenal’s season after this nightmare before Christmas at Merseyside.
