Arsenal returned to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace yesterday at Selhurst Park.
The Gunners bounced back following their shock 2-0 home loss at the hands of West Ham United last weekend. Özil played 83 minutes in the Gunners victory away from home.
The club’s record signing received a rating of 7.88 from Whoscored after recorded five key passes. The Former Real Madrid playmaker provided the most key passes in the league yesterday.
The former Real Madrid man also provided the assist for Olivier Giroud’s opening goal against Palace.
Özil will be glad with his performance following a disappointing display against West Ham last weekend.
Following the final whistle we took to Twitter to see how Özil’s latest performance went down on social media. Read a selection of what we found below:
