Mesut masterpiece cannot gloss over Gunners’ failings
MESUT OZIL lit up The Emirates with a volley of the highest quality.
Arsene Wenger hailed the German’s unstoppable left-footer (left) as ‘a gem’, a goal worthy of winning any match.
Ozil has now been involved in six goals in his last five Premier League games at The Emirates — two goals and four assists.
Yesterday alone he created eight chances — only Manchester City’s Kevin de Bruyne, with nine against Southampton last month, has managed more in a single Premier League game this season.
But then Arsenal do not have difficulty carving out openings — it is taking the chances that has been a problem. In four Premier League matches this month, they have created 89 efforts, but converted just three.
