Mesut Ozil has received a lot of flak in Arsenal off late. However, he was at his peak when he moved to Arsenal and continued to do the same at North London. Ozil joined the Gunners on 2nd September 2013 for £42.5 million (€50 million) making him the most expensive German football player of all time.

His transfer drew the ire of many Real Madrid players, including Cristiano Ronaldo, who wanted him to stay at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, Ozil has said that he did not have the faith of his bosses at Real. While Arsene Wenger had offered him the respect he desired.

With 13 assists and 7 goals in his first season at the Emirates, it is safe to say that Ozil repaid Wenger’s faith in full. He has since made 142 appearances for the Gunners, finding the back of the net 27 times and helping them win two FA cups. But more importantly, he has created more than 500 goal scoring opportunities for his teammates!
