No one can be more overrated than Beckham.

Never.

But agree, Ozil is the true invisible man.

If we are talking overrated players, Gerrard and Scholes must be mentioned. Good players yes, but the world beaters they were proclaimed? Not in my book

Heskey. There are goalkeepers who have more International goals than him

Ozil is a fair weather footballer who probably doesn't give two flying monkeys holes about Arsenal.
It has dawned on him, probably sometime ago that they are a club going nowhere and he wants out.

Heakey was proper weird one. Striker who never actually scores. Yet he kept on being signed by good clubs and kept on getting caps for England. I never got my head around that.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Don't think they would make a mistake of that magnitude.
They splash the cash but they buy players who have a backbone.

And for a player with the unfortunately inevitable nickname of "Bruno", he didn't half fall over a lot.

Did he have a backbone the last time they bought him?

Fair comment.
RM got rid of him when he was approaching his prime, strange decision given how gifted he is as a footballer.
Maybe it was his attitude/life style, seemingly he likes to party. IMO they saw the fatal flaw - no bottle.
Regardless, his reputation has suffered since he left RM.
Therefore, I think there is no way RM will take him back i.e. after getting rid of him and then watch his reputation as a bottler grow.

Plus his eyes are always being caught offside.


He must be an illicit clone of Marty Feldman. ;)

Yes! That's it! I knew he reminded me of someone. Marty Feldman.

Thank you Mikhail.

Crikey Slim, the likenesses in that photo are quite alarming.

On a side note, Ferrari looks as though he might be sitting at the wheel of an Alfa P3; perhaps one driven by the legendary and inimitable Tazio Nuvolari.
