In all of my years as a fan I have questioned this. Its not only English pundits, but in general South American ones as well. What's wrong? why the hate?
I was checking up goal.com UK based part of the webpage and there was an article "Isco much better than *Özil" Like really? based on what? 5 matches?
Had Özil signed for ManU they would be comparing him with God knows who already..
Why do pundits hate Arsenal?

Wilshere is the only in our team
Flamini is just a nutter and you're scared of him

"Chris - I think the reason pundits haven't been way over the top with their acclaim for that signing is because you clearly needed other areas strengthened and your board failed to do that."
Which team bar City is complete and doesn't need any signings? Sure we could've added to a few other positions. But the Ozil signing didn't get the credit it deserved.
We were in dire need of creativity. Clear fact. Ozil was a necessary signing.

they are jealous because football is a sport which lost its soul and arsneal is the one club with a big heart and soul which they try to destroy it.

Moral club?
The price of season and matchday tickets is totally immoral.

the stadium is full and the demand is high. the price of many things in life is too much, arsenal are reacting to the landscape of football.

Its pure lazy journalism. Pundits come on the radio/TV and often criticize our defense even though we have one of the best defensive records since the Bayern game last year. Its just how it is. Winning a trophy will shut them up. And if thats a minor trophy the criticism will be the title. And if its the title it will be Champions League.
And its not only lazy journalism but lazy opinions. That even propagates to the fans. For example the hate for certain players is palpable, even if the players have been consistent for more than a season. Some fans only form opinions if some idiot commentator is leading them by the nose.

Hasn't ozil set up every arsenal goal since he has arrived bar 1.
Well worth the money. Wenger should have spent more, if was there to spend.
