According to reports, Some Arsenal players are increasingly irked by the lackadaisical attitude of Mesut Ozil and feels the midfielder is increasingly being permitted to “select” the games he plays in for the North London club.
Arsenal player’s wants German offloaded
That’s as per The Sun, which claims a couple of Arsenal players have complained to club management about the number of times the World Cup winner has declared himself not available for games this campaign.
And the figure doesn’t lie: the club’s highest-earner on £350,000- weekly has not started 25 of the Gunners 58 games this campaign, with the former Real Madrid star handed rests in the UEFA Europa League group stages, as well as the Emirates FA Cup and the League Cup.
“hand pick” matches
The Germany international has also missed their previous five English Premier League matches, including last Sunday’s home farewell for long-serving manager Arsene Wenger. His absence has been blamed on a thigh injury, which also seems likely to rule the attacking midfielder out of Wednesday’s game at Leicester City and the last match of the campaign at Huddersfield.
The 29-year-old’s most recent setback follows a number of mystery injury setbacks which have really disrupted his contributions for the Gunners over the last 18 months.
