Arsenal are currently better than us, no dispute about that.

But there's also no dispute that Eriksen is better than Ozil. When I'm feeling down, I like to think back to when Arsenal signed Ozil, do you remember their fans thinking there'd been some tactical masterstroke of business ingenuity 'behind Spurs back'?
They were so pleased that they'd secretly struck a deal for 42.5 million. I bet Real could barely keep a straight face...

I knew this article was coming

Can we for a change not compare one of star performers to one of Arsenals star performers?

Reeks of small-club mentality.

Yeah lets all be friends, congratulate Arsenal on very small achievement, pat them on the back after every win, console them after every defeat....hell, lets start supporting them, lets share a facking stadium with them, I know lets merge the teams..... Go Team North London

No, I just dont like player comparisons. Especially with two players who dont play THAT similarly.

Cazorla/Eriksen more apt.

The comparison is a natural one as they play a creative midfield role and both arrived in the summer.

I reckon that if Arsenal had spent his £42.5m on Higuain & Eriksen then they'd be top of the league right now.

I think they would have been in a better position had they bought Di Maria for example. Ozil has hardly lived up to his price tag, but people are misconstruing that price tag for him actually being sheit.

Podolski is the sheit German in that team.

Eriksen hadn't scored 2 in a game before the weekend.. he's looking better with every game.

Ozil is a "world class" player who can only do tippy tappy assists.

"Arsenal fans have a hard on for Ozil's reputation and his assist rate playing behind one of the
greatest players of all time. Real knew Modric was vastly superior
(validated by his performances this season) so were happy to flog Ozil off to balance the books
after signing Bale. Arsenal fans thought that meant they'd got one over on us, but the guy has been shown up as overrated,
lacking heart and not having the stamina to last a full season in the Prem.
Meanwhile the younger Eriksen who we got for a quarter of the price is scoring & assisting well
into the business end of the season. "But it's OZIL - he's better because it's OZIL and he cost a fortune and is a big name player". As if Real would've sold a
player that good to European minnows like arsenal - the great arsenal who are having a much
better season than useless spurs but are one place above us in the
league same as they have been the last 5 years. Mugs."

So delusional and ignorant it's untrue. I guess all Ozil has accomplished in his career for club and country, right from driving Werder Bremen to the UEFA Cup final at 20 as the best player is because he once played with Ronaldo. A player that was by a distance Madrid's 2nd best player when they ended Barca's league dominance with a record breaking season. The reality is Eriksen would rot in the Madrid reserves if he was at the club. Better players than him barely got a kick at the club. And he'd get nowhere near a German team where Kroos, Reus and Goetze are often on the bench.

And Modric is "vastly superior to Ozil"? The same Modric who warmed the bench and replaced Ozil after 70 - 80 minutes in every game when Ozil was there? That Modric? The same Modric who has something like 8 assists this season - about a 3rd or a quarter of what Ozil would regularly give at Madrid. If you meant he's better at fiddling with his hair, then I can't argue.

Your desperate arguments are beyond laughable. I guess Madrid also sold players like Sneijder, Robben, VDV and Makelele because they were sheite. Nothing to do with the fact it's an unstable club with a high turnover of players - unlike their Catalan rivals.

If the comparison in the OP is off comparing Modric to Ozil is ridiculous. Luka is more than capable of running a game against the best, stats shouldn't come into it.

I'm not sure if this is a wind-up, but this has been done by a fan of a team, who's fans were incredulous at the fact that Walcott had better stats than Bale, and Arsenal fans claiming he was a better player.

So, is it only stats that matter now?

Ozil is pony.
Eriksen is class.

Fact.

By the way, comparing Modric and Özil is nonsense. They simply do not occupy the same role in the Real Madrid team.

Eriksen's better than Ozil and Bale's better than Walcott.

"If the comparison in the OP is off comparing Modric to Ozil is ridiculous. Luka is more than capable of running a game against the best, stats shouldn't come into it."

The way he ran it against Barca 2 days ago and they had almost 70% possession, eh? Stats consistently demonstrate that Modric's creative output is poor. Not even the easiest job creating for Bale, Benzema and Ronaldo has improved it. He's a player of a million twists and turns lacking the invention to decide games.
