I don't like Bendtner, would prefer having no back up to Giroud than Bendtner.
Ozil...

I wasn't at all being over-dramatic, I didn't say we're ****! It's the end of the world! We're doomed etc.....I still think we are very strong, and could challenge if we get a break on injuries and can maintain some good consistency.

Are you seriously saying we base our transfer strategy on appeasing disgruntled fans
Is there anyone Poldi doesn't get on well with? We could use him to recruit a few more players. By the end of next season, i expect our team to look like this:
Adler
Jung Mertesacker Hummels Schmelzer
Bender Gundogan
Gotze Ozil Reus
Podolski

Are you seriously suggesting that the jump from 15 to 42.5m had nothing to do with the growing uneasiness around the club about not competing for the best?
This is no ordinary transfer...fan sentiment had a massive say.

Heard he doesn't like Bendtner.
Who does? The guy's an arrogant talentless waste of space. Can't blame Poldi for sharing everyone else's disdain.
I agree that it's a statement of intent but I don't think the transfer was down to fan pressureI won't disagree but Wenger has been looking to Ozil for a while. I also think he had to change his principles for once because of the hyper inflated market. It was defo a statement of intent but good on him for that.
