Mesut Ozil vs Napoli (video)

I am deciding to do all three of my video blogs today on match compilations. Although they have all featured Mesut Ozil so far, he just happens to be the one I have found after a little bit of digging and scrolling.

Three Things To Look Out For During This Weekend's Premier League Action

This weekend we have Premier League football returning after what was a lengthy break to determine who had booked their ticket to next year's World Cup in Brazil. Unfortunately, though, those who finished second in their groups have to participate in play-offs next month to earn a trip to Rio. I know, I know.

Why the first winter World Cup in 92 years is a bad idea

Can Sepp Blatter become any more ridiculous than he already has? The answer is of course yes, but the worrying thing is that this imbecile of a man is currently one of the most powerful men in world football.

5 players that can inspire Arsenal to glory this season

Arsenal and winning trophies has been a love story put on hold for too long. They've gone from having the confidence and the mindset to win any trophy they can compete in to blind optimism in recent years. They've come close on a couple of occasions though. Champions League final in 2006 and that League Cup final spring to mind but they haven't quite been able to get past the finishing line. Mesut Ozil's arrival has renewed faith in the fans that they can actually win something this season. Which is why the first player on my list is, without a doubt, Mesut Ozil.

3 Reasons Why Arsenal Can Win The Premier League

It has been ten years since Arsenal’s Invincibles became the first team to go an entire Premier League season unbeaten.  Despite a decade having passed, it is still slightly surprising that not a single player from that squad remains at the club.  The one man who does is manager Arsene Wenger, who has had to defend his side’s trophy drought since winning the FA Cup in 2005.

A closer look at Toni Kroos

For my last video I want to talk more in depth about one of my top 10 favourite players in Europe at the moment. The Bayern Munich man oozes class and quality which is what I adore about him. With Bayern signing Mario Gotze and Thiago Alcantara, his place in the team has come under increasing threat. If he is dislodged from the team, in my opinion, he's too good to be a back up. This is an Arsene Wenger style signing, potentially available and the possibility to get him at a reduced price due to his contract expiring in the summer of 2015. Bayern will not want Kroos to enter the final year of his contract with teams prowling around him.

3 reasons why talk of Jose Mourinho's demise is premature

It is fascinating to see how a string of one or two poor results can set alarm bells ringing and all of a sudden knees start jerking and someone gets fired. I'm not saying Chelsea's Jose Mourinho will be getting fired anytime soon, but the way in which some fans are reacting to his team's 2-1 loss in the Champions League on Wednesday you'd think that's exactly what they want.

5 marquee signings Arsenal should make in January

We've barely finished the summer transfer window and already rumours are flying around suggesting that Arsene Wenger has been given permission to sign one big name player in January. The press have already linked us with Marco Reus, Ilkay Gundogan and Lars Bender. However, they seemed very unlikely in the summer so think about the response in January when it becomes even harder to sign players. Nevertheless, it's fun to speculate about who Arsenal could sign. The five players, however unrealistic they are, must not be taken as an actual transfer rumour. Having said that, Arsenal have probably been linked with all of them at some point. As is the norm with the Gunners.
