He is a real favourite amongst the Arsenal fans in the Football Transfer Tavern…
Mesut Ozil has cemented his legacy as one of the best players in Arsenal history – despite his relatively short tenure with the club.
Since joining in 2013, Ozil has solidified his place in the Arsenal first team – and has continually proven that he is the man to bring the best out of the Gunners.
He proved that again on Tuesday night, as the German lead Arsenal to an impressive turnaround in the Champions League against Ludogorets, coming back to win 3-2 after going 2-0 in the first half.
Ozil’s impressive performance in Europe, however, only tells part of the story – and the German has actually been vital for the Gunners in recent weeks – as the following stat shows.
According to OptaJoe on Twitter, Ozil has now been involved in 6 goals in Arsenal’s last 4 games – signifying just how important he has been the Arsenal’s impressive run of form this season.

Wow! Mesut Ozil is clearly an important player – but this stat appears to indicate that he is the most dominant member of the Arsenal first team.
Our landlord thinks that Ozil will need to be on top form this season if Arsenal want to mount a title challenge.
The Arsenal fans in the Football Transfer Tavern want him to sign a new deal as soon as possible.
