Arsenal trolls Chelsea fan on Twitter who took a dig at Mesut Ozil on his birthday.
Arsenal have taken active steps in the transfer market, according to various reports. Ever since the arrival of Unai Emery at the Emirates, Arsenal underwent a minor club-overhaul, which saw the departure of Jack Wilshere and Santi Cazorla, two of the mainstays of the midfield.
The Gunners made five signings in the summer, and the results have been terrific for Arsenal so far. Unai Emery’s side is on a nine-match winning streak across all competitions.
Arsenal won six matches in a row in the Premier League after a dismal start to the campaign, which saw them losing both of their opening matches to Man City and Chelsea respectively.
The Gunners are now only two points behind both the sides, who are first and second in the table. With 18 points, Arsenal are fourth, ahead of their city rivals Tottenham Hotspur on goal difference.
Arsenal also seem to be in good form on social media. As Mesut Ozil celebrated his 30th birthday yesterday, Arsenal’s official Twitter account posted a series of tweets wishing him. When a Chelsea fan trolled Mesut Ozil in one of the replies, here’s what Arsenal tweeted to him.

Mesut Ozil has emerged as one of the key players for Arsenal, ever since his arrival at the club five years ago. The midfielder holds the record for most assists in a single Premier League season with the club.
The former German international celebrated his 30th birthday yesterday, and various stars, including former teammate Santi Cazorla, Shkodran Mustafi, and the official account of German national team wished him.

Since 2013, Ozil has been a central figure at Arsenal. He has made 203 appearances for the club, scoring 40 goals and making a remarkable 71 assists in all competitions.
This is his sixth season at Arsenal, which is the longest he has ever been at a club. He led Arsenal to three FA Cup victories and a Community Shield title. Under their new manager Unai Emery, Arsenal has made a bright start to the campaign, as they aim for more trophies this season.
