Mesut Ozil gets massive praise from former Arsenal star

Ian Wright applauds Mesut Ozil after a scintillating performance against Liverpool.

Mesut Ozil returned to the Arsenal team in last nights Carabao Cup game against Liverpool and the midfielder impressed.

Ozil has been frozen out of the Arsenal first team this season with speculation mounting that Unai Emery doesn’t rate him and wants to sell him in the January transfer window.

However, last night Ozil seemed to send a message to his manager and club legend, Ian Wright, was full of praise for the German.

Wright has been an outspoken advocate of the German’s return to the starting XI. The former England international was delighted to see Ozil prove him right with a performance of the highest quality.

Taking to Twitter, he was full of praise for the playmaker, tweeting: “Finding space.

“Total composure in the final third.

“Clear chances being created.

“So much of what we need!

“Fantastic tonight Mes.”

With the team struggling, Wright clearly believes they can get more points on the board if Emery trusts Ozil more.

Wright even believes that the former Real Madrid midfielder will outlast Emery at the Emirates.

Hopefully, if Emery starts Ozil in the game against Wolves, the midfielder will put in another strong performance.
