Won't be surprised if Ozil is sold too hot and cold.

Who would match our wages plus pay a substantial fee for Mesut?
Personally I'm looking forward to what the next coach can get out of Mesut, he's one the few players we have who've actually achieved at top level.

Once the back and cm/ dmf are sorted out it will enable ozil to play more often.

I think we will be reminded of just how good Ozil is in this world cup and just how much we have wasted him, hopefully something that might change before he eventually leaves us.
Kos is coming to the end of his career but it's unquestionable he could have achieved much more elsewhere but unfortunately for him he was just at the right club at the wrong time, same for Sanchez too.
I still hope we might yet get to see the best of Mesut and the best of Arsenal together before its to late.

Ozil can stay for one more season in my opinion but if he doesn't perform under a new manager, he will be booted out most likely. Most of this players won't have a future under a new manager i am quite certain.

Ozil on the wages he is on, if he doesn't step it up, will be a massive problem to arsenal going forward. Our top earner has to be our top performer. he's the bench mark all other players will use. I personally think it could be a huge mill stone unless he responds to our new saviour.

I think ozil would improve under a new manager. Mourinho knew how to do that. Read this excerpt from ozil's autobiography:
The book, Die Magie des Spiels (The Magic of the Game) recalls a tense encounter after one unspecified game, when Mourinho tore into the player for a perceived lack of effort.
Özil writes that the Portuguese said: “You think two beautiful passes are enough. You think you’re so good that 50% is enough. â€
Özil continues: “He pauses. Stares at me with his dark brown eyes. I stare back. Like two boxers at the stare-down before the first round. He shows no emotion. Just waits for a response from me. How much I hate him right now. And I love Mourinho actually. â€
After Özil threw his shirt on floor, Mourinho’s tirade continued: “Oh, are you giving up now? You’re such a coward.
“What do you want? To creep under the beautiful, warm shower? Shampoo your hair? To be alone? Or do you want to prove to your fellow players, the fans out there, and me, what you can do. â€.
{Ed0333's Note - to shampoo your hair lol

Mourinho doesn’t play around. Wenger is too nice. That kind of aproach won’t work with that kind of approach. Think the stick and carrot method i'd the best.
ozil missed training today due to ‘illness’ won’t play tomorrow. keown said after our europa league exit that he bets ozil will get sick and miss the remaining matches. He was bang on. Why is he always sick? It is too much it is starting to look fishy. Why does he always get sick and then we find him hanging out?
{Ed0333's Note - your right punani Keown called it and it happened. scandalous stuff, great player on his day but I’d get rid, get the money and buy someone with some heart and fortitude

yes ed, i wouldn't mind selling him and getting a younger replacement. His attitude is shocking.
{Ed0333's Note - He’s been indulged most of his professional career and your right he’s got a crappy attitude. After Sánchez left he should have been the one to galvanize that squad with his experience and ability but he imploded and I honestly wouldn’t want him anywhere near a Liverpool team. Tones of ability but zero character.
