Sluggish And Disinterested: Arsenal Must Sell Flop This Summer

Egos can be good and bad at the same time. Sometimes a person with a big ego could be misconstrued as someone who has a lot of confidence.

Sunderland's on-loan striker Fabio Borini has recently claimed he is ready to play for a big team, such as parent club Liverpool.

Ozil Must Not Start Against Stoke - Here's Why

Mesut Ozil was completely left out of the Arsenal squad when the Gunners hosted Sunderland last weekend. There was conflicting reports surrounding the reason as to why Ozil was left out of the squad with some suggesting that he picked up an injury while others were saying he was being rested.
