Mesut Ozil working harder to get back in Emery’s good books

EVERYONE INVOLVED AROUND ARSENAL HAVE ONE QUESTION IN THEIR MIND – WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MESUT OZIL?

Its has not even been a year since Mesut penned £350,000 contract with Arsenal but is been often left out of matchday squads by Unai Emery.

He hasn’t featured for Arsenal since Boxing Day and ‘tactical reason’ has become a go-to cover for Unai, but that is leaving Gooners around the globe well frustrated.

Mesut Ozil is the face of Arsenal and leaving him on the line is doing nothing but creating a sense of frustration, which has also led to some rumours linking a move away from Arsenal for the World Cup winner.

BBC journalist David Ornstein suggests Emery has spoken to Ozil about a possible departure.

They’re not just rumours,” Orstein admitted.

“Unai Emery has suggested to Mesut Ozil that it would be best for him to leave the club. And the hierarchy of the club feels that they would like him to move on

“I think that’s mainly financially driven for a player earning £350,000 per week but also related to that is the fact he is not performing anywhere near the level when he has played on a consistent basis as we know he can produce from the past.”

However, these rumours are gonna end with with nothing but vaccum as Oristen was soo to admit that Mesut has no intention to leave Arsenal, and in fact is putting in an extra effort behind the doors.

“He has no desire to leave, Mesut Ozil, so he won’t be leaving in the January transfer window,” Orstein added.

“I’m told he’s working extremely hard to get himself fit. Reports coming out of London Colney is that he’s now doing extra gym work and he has a positive demeanour. He’s determined to work his way back into the side.

“The word was he wasn’t doing a lot of the extra work most players were, and he is now. I’ve heard positive things about his behaviour, his commitment, his relationships with the teammates.

“I don’t think that’s ever been a problem, but he’s clearly out of favour with the manager and that’s a very expensive problem for the club to have.”
