4-0. Puts some perspective on our two games with PSG. We came damn close to beating them.
Of course, you realise he was injured for quite a lot of that and his form at Wolfsburg was dire as well. Could just be that we weren't interested in him at all and it was all agent/paper talk? No, that would be too hard to believe anyway :shrug:
One good game against Barca hardly makes him a world superstar, anyway
He is a a very decent player all the same, as well you know, though the jist of your statement regarding "one good game against Barca ..." is of course true. He has settled very well in PSG having totally lost his way in Wolfsburg so his form there perhaps can be overlooked to a degree. I believe the term is hit the ground running with 4/5 goals since Xmas.
I have to believe we were interested in him at some point in recent years if not the last window, the continued media links cannot all have been wrong. I have seen Ozil speak very highly of him, and indeed vice versa, to the extent to suggest they have a very healthy friendship through the national team.
He is a talented player, for sure. We have an interest in a lot of players, I am sure, Draxler has moved twice since our supposed interest emerged and we have signed other players in his position. The fact that we have not made a bid in that time suggests our interest was minimal, yet that doesn't stop the predictable, pathetic sneering from 7 that we dithered over signing him
