Part ii:
So I guess it’s pretty clear that Madrid’s loss is Arsenal’s gain. For the German’s arrival to be compared to the likes of Bergkamp is incredible, and quite true. We haven’t signed anyone of this proven stature for a long time – so hopefully it impacts on the club as we all wish (immediate performances; boosting team morale; encouraging more credible signings to follow suit,) etc.
Yes, Arsenal fans are living up to a grumpy reputation too though, but it is not without reason, in fairness. Yeah of course this Ozil signing is phenomenal. It is, phenomenal. It means a lot to us, to the players and to the status of the club – it shows that we do have ambition to head in the right direction (up the table, away from 4th place). But, not enough in the right direction, or else, the sensible signings (the CB and CF cover) would also have been long done. And done before 10.30pm on the last day.
