His numbers are remarkable but, at this moment, they mean nothing. He is on target to become a record breaker but, if there is no silverware, what will it mean? The man who all that applies to is Mesut Ozil, whose first half of the season has been superb. As it stands, though, it is nonsense to use statistics to try to compare Ozil and Dennis Bergkamp. The reason is this: Bergkamp is immortalised in bronze outside the Emirates because, aside from all the medals, he helped bring fantasy football to north London.
