Arsenal have just signed the best CAM in world football (according to the entirely impartial Lufti).

He's obviously an excellent player, and it's very annoying that they've signed him, but they were hardly short of classy playmakers before, it's other areas of the squad (pretty much every except for attacking midfield) where they really lack quality.

Ahh come on, Ozil is good but as most have pointed out he doesn't solve any of their well known weaknesses. Lets face it if you said to the Arsenal fans the only player you will sign of any magnitude is Mesut Ozil then I think you would have many disappointed Arsenal fans.

I don't mean to knee-jerk, and I honestly don't think that I am as I am not particularly emotionally distraught by what has happened today, but I absolutely cannot wrap my mind around how people are downplaying the Ozil signing. Have you all forgotten that Cazorla is as good on the left as he is through the middle? Their first XI is far, far stronger than it was as of yesterday.

Hate the scum but that is a great signing for them. He is without doubt one of the best attacking midfielders in world football!

...hope he breaks both his eyes in the first match :)

...bug eyed f**k

Look at the Game changing world class players in the PL atm:
Arsenal - Ozil
Chelsea - Mata and potentially Oscar and Hazard
Liverpool - Suarez
Man Utd - Van Persie
Man City - Aguerro

Ozil is better than any player we signed ( at the moment) by a distance. Our players have potential. But this guy is shit hot right now . Serious signing. To think otherwise is white tinted glasses stuff.

He is a phenom

They are great players dont get me wrong but last season they werent changing games single handily. They helped when they come and are world class but those players above are the best in their position in the world and Toure I did put in but last season he wasnt the player he was the year before and I could name better performers last season.

That said I cant name alot more better players in their positions than Aguero, Mata, Van Persie, Ozil and Suarez. We had our star and kept our word to sell him

...........Giroud
Cazorla...Ozil....Walcott

Devastating front 4, especially with the Giroud's form.

Still, only a couple of injuries away from being pretty average. Still believe we have the better, more balanced squad.

This is the issue, its all good and well signing potential but until we finish we will struggle to keep those players when they reach their potential

Wouldn't it be funny if Ozil picked up a knock against Austria that ruled him out for the rest of the season.

Contradicting what I've said already but this Ozil signing is pretty fucking annoying.

Cazorla, Wilshire and Ozil?

That's not fair.

Lol at people trying to play down Ozil's talent.

He was pratically their best player last year.

An exceptional talent and will be fantastic for Arsenal

Only problem is him and Cazorla are best playing ACM.
