Mesut Ozil noticed Alexandre Lacazette taking a run and provided a brilliant backheel. The Frenchman didn’t make a mistake as he gave the side a lead in the game.
Mesut Ozil has had an inconsistent season so far. After being in the starting XI in the initial few months of the season, Ozil lost his place in the team.
His absence in the game led to speculations surrounding his future at the club, with various outlets suggesting that he might leave Arsenal in the summer.
However, it was reported in the winter transfer window that Ozil intends to fight for a place in the team. The former German international started the game against Manchester United earlier this month and played a key role in the side’s 2-0 victory, which took Arsenal to the fourth place in the Premier League.
