Cascarino Believes Ozil Deserves Criticisms Because Of Big-Money Deal At Arsenal

Former Republic of Ireland forward Tony Cascarino believes Mesut Ozil criticisms is justified because of his mega-money contract at Arsenal.

Ozil’s initial contract was due to end in the summer of 2018 but the Germany superstar agreed to remain at the club until 2021 in a deal worth around £350,000 a week before tax.

Since joining Arsenal from Real Madrid in 2013, the German has often been criticized by fans and the media due to his inconsistent performances at the Emirates Stadium.

Cascarino has admitted that the fans expect more from the 2014 World Cup winner due to the mammoth amount he earns.

“You have to be real on this, because when you pay someone a huge indifferent salary compared to everyone else at a football club, he has to make the difference on the field,” the former Chelsea striker told Weekend Sports Breakfast.

“So that’s going to come with criticism, as much as you might think it’s unfair and some people think it’s bullying, it carries a price.”

Cascarino posited that Ozil would benefit from having a leader in the Arsenal dressing room like NBA icon Michael Jordan, whose quality of rousing teammates into battle, was portrayed in the popular Netflix documentary series The Last Dance.

“When you watch The Last Dance and you see how Michael Jordan got more out of a player, you sort of think you wish Arsenal had that type of player to get more out of Mesut Ozil,” Cascarino added.

“Not just the manager, but a player sitting next to him in the dressing room who might be thinking you’re not doing enough.”

“You’re lacking one ingredient, because it just feels as though he cruises through games. There’s got to be more from him.”

“No-one is questioning his ability, but it feels like it’s just enough all the time as far as he’s concerned.”
