I hate how everyone is bashing Özil. It's not his fault. He is a very specialized player who needs to be used correctly. Putting him on the side instead of the middle is an affront to all logic. He needs to distribute the passes and he can't do it on the side, he needs options.

and instead of just passing it to the safest location he just tries to take on two or three players and loses the ball every single time.
Certainly his fault.

For passing to the safest options you don't need an Özil. It's a waste to put him there. We could use that space to bring a real  attacker for the side like Podolski or Schürrle.
