Menotti: Real Madrid’s decision to sell Özil surprised me Former Barcelona manager, Cesar Luis Menotti assessed the current situation at Real Madrid and feels that Real Madrid have taken a step back by selling German international midfielder, Mesut Özil to Arsenal at the summer transfer deadline. In his interview with Spanish sports daily, Marca, Menotti gave his opinion on the decision to sell Özil and why the team has struggled in the early part of the season under new manager, Carlo Ancelotti. “Letting go of its good players, like Özil, the ones who know how to play football, that did surprise me. Now we have to wait for Ancelotti to find his team, the players. “If you really commit to an idea, that’s what can help you the most. If you are not clear on the idea, it’s like opening a random door: for Ronaldo to convert a free kick, for Ramos to get on the end of a cross… Everyone wants to win; the question is how you intend to go about doing it. Bale, for example, we’ll have to see where and how they play him.
