Dixon: Henry complained to me about Ozil on Sunday
Lee Dixon has revealed that Thierry Henry personally expressed his concerns over Mesut Ozil’s form ahead of Sunday’s victory over Manchetser United.
The German midfielder has received mixed reviews for his time at Arsenal after joining the club as a marquee signing from Real Madrid two years ago.
Thierry Henry, now a pundit, was involved in pre-match analysis with Jamie Carragher and Graeme Souness on Sky Sports ahead of the Gunners’ clash with Manchester United.
But according to his former teammate Lee Dixon, Henry went on a rant about Ozil in a conversation they had before kick-off.
“I was speaking to Thierry before the game and he told me his biggest worry is Ozil” Dixon said on NBCSN
“He asked me ‘when will he ever show up and play in games like this?'”
However, Henry hailed Ozil’s performance after the match, stating that he “came to the party”, following a goal and an assist from the 26-year-old.

Maybe Dixon should’ve asked Henry why he didn’t turn up in any Cup Finals in his entire career either for club or country? 0 goals.
Ouch, bit arsh Dan bit arsh ha ha
True talk Dan
And Henry should be asked why he turned in big games like against Ireland with his hand… The shame of football (I’m French, btw…)
My analysis of Henry’s complained is that he knows the super talent that Ozil has and if only he can turn up in those big game, no team will mess up with Arsenal. The result against Man U showed Henry is right.
yeah ozil has a super talent
What does Dixon hope to achieve by revealing Thierry’s concerns share with him in private? Thierry’s concerns are not new, Ozil has been roundly criticized by fans and foes for churning out lukewarm performances against our main title rivals. Before the game he kept saying he needs a big performance and that Arsenal will beat ManU. He made bold predictions and backed every word with a big performance which Thierry acknowledged on many platforms. Puzzles me why Dixon would share his intimate chat with a mate in this fashion
Hahahahaha,henry Wenger told u that your not ready to be a coach, i told you to go and tell Theo what to do in that front, i no your our legend that’s why i want you to teach him, is ur club ad you manage the club after Wenger go there and give them support

WC quarter final v Brazil 2006 Real Madrid away Champions League
Henry was very right because if Ozil couldn’t have performed, we would have lost the game. Henry please show Walcott your skills so that he can be like you.
Dixon snitched. Doesn’t help our club at all.
