#4 Ozil proves his class again

Mesut Ozil proved his class once again to give the manager a derby selection headache
Mesut Ozil proved his class once again to give the manager a derby selection headache

The story of Emery's treatment of Mesut Ozil has been an interesting sub-plot to the manager's first season in charge. Recently, the German playmaker has been in and out of the starting eleven. His start against Bournemouth seemed surprising considering Iwobi's splendid performances in recent games.

The former German international proved his class once again as he contributed a goal and an assist to the eventual annihilation of the Cherries. Emery now faces a selection dilemma ahead of the North London Derby at Wembley as he seeks to accommodate all the best players.

The Arsenal number 10 displayed his skills and fans are eager to see him play against their North London rivals. The quality of the World Cup Winner has never been in doubt and a consistent run of form and quality should see him cement his place back in the starting eleven. Against Bournemouth, his class was on display for all to see and it proved that Arsenal has been missing his creativity.

While Ozil is certainly of no help in defence, he tries his extreme best to create chances for the Gunners and that is what they need to be in the top four.
