Being lazy on the pitch. And it’s not a myth either. There are numerous examples from highlights alone where you can pin at least a portion of the blame on Ozil for not bothering to track back or just dangling out a lazy leg.

The Bayern thrashings were the perfect example of this. One or two goals where he lets Robben come inside, drift past him, then just jogs back at a snail’s pace.

Chelsea signing Sterling. They literally had a front row seat for one of the worst performances in CL final history, watched Reece James pocket him for 90 mins (and in the FA Cup a few weeks before that too), and thought ‘yeah we’ll pay 55 million quid for that’.
