This is a proper playmaker.

Özil is on a different stratosphere to Ødegaard. 10× better.

Listen as much as I love Ozil when he disappeared in a game he really disappeared, like it would become a 11v10. He’s an incredible playmaker but not one that could survive the current football’s demands

A playmaker that knows exactly where his teammates are before getting the ball

Thanks for posting this. the sport loses its spark for me more and more every weekend watching the slop arteta feeds us

Didn’t you lot want him gone. Didn’t you lot call him lazy. Didn’t you lot say he can’t defend, didn’t you lot say he’s milking the club.

I'll tell you what. There's nothing wrong with Odegaard. It's Arteta. He's micromanaged every inch of the game that the players have lost their fluidity and individual creativity. I see that hesitation in all of them.

I couldn’t appreciate ozil cuz we was getting battered every week

Don’t show this to the Arteta brigade, they’ll lose their heads 😂. Only true fans that watched wengerball understand what true attacking football feels like. Imagine if wenger had the defense we’ve assembled today, we would go unbeaten 5 seasons ins a row.

Ozil literally disappeared in every big game and regularly got bullied in midfield, are you joking? Just cause he farmed highlights with norwich, west brom and hull city, doesn't mean he was better than odegaard, he wasn't there when it mattered.

Arsenal fans still complained about him being too slow and lazy. Same with Xhaka and Partey.

The fifa sound track 😍

The nostalgia on Ozil these days is crazy😂😂😂😂many of us watch him play at Arsenal, great player but terribly inconsistent and undependable. You're playing Man City or Man Utd and expecting Ozil to turn up, all he will do is have nice touches for YouTube and farm Aura😂😂😂

Yall don’t seem to remember how poor our consistency was back then. We were a joke of a club and big clubs thirsted to play us

beautiful

Adding an Ozil kind of player to this Arsenal team would be demonic!

I loved Özil when he was there. But let’s not pretend like he did this every game. If anything, he did it 1 out of every 5 games. The other 4 games we were literally a team playing with 10 men

Someone please send this to ode🥲 man imagine this ozil in our team rightnow😭😭😭

0:23 never seen odegaard attempt something like this ever

Arguably one of the greatest creative mf in the modern game. Not everyone is cut like that.

@grok song choice

Anyone who compares Odegaard to Mesut Ozil is mental. A fat, shameless retard. His ball knowledge and game reading was on a whole different level.

💔💔💔💔💔

Proper? He's like top 3 of all time, mate. I think it's too harsh to compare Odegaard with him

It is actually a crime to compare Odegaard to Özil. Anyone who does should be jailed. Özil is light years ahead.

Half this comp is him having others play make for him (not to say I disagree with your point)

If gyokeres live in the ozil era, he will dozens of goals

He was a line breaker and shape shifter. 🔥

Who tf compares Ozil to anybody in AM let alone Odegaard

He’s not on level of ozil I don’t think there no midfielder in level of ozil

Ozil made football easy. And accident on nature, and a wonderful work of art in motion.❤️

realy missed him

One thing that jumps out is how Ozil stays with the attack and offer runs off the ball. Odegaard is constantly running sideways and dropping back to receive to feet slowing down attacking moves.

GOD, I'M JUST TIRED OF RECEIVING INSULTS FROM OTHER FANS REGARDING WHEN MY CLUB IS GONNA WIN A TROPHY.

Players running beyond the last line. Third man combinations One twos all over the park. What happened to my club? @karis_the

There were periods Ozil was useless, he would go missing in lots of games. Let's not act he was always great. And yes, Odegaard isn't anywhere close to him
