Mesut Ozil

Arsenal record signing wouldn’t get in Tottenham team says club legend – Opts for Dele Alli and Eriksen.

Arsenal star playmaker Mesut Ozil would not get into Tottenham’s starting line-up according to Graham Roberts.

The former Spurs defender slammed Ozil following his performance against Crystal Palace on Monday night.

Roberts said that there is no way Ozil would be selected ahead of either Dele Alli or Christian Eriksen.

And he may have a point, Alli has provided an impressive ten assists and scored 19 goals for Spurs this season. Eriksen meanwhile has 19 assists and 11 goals to his name.

The Gunners suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat at the hands of Palace at Selhurst Park. Arsenal’s quest to finish in the top-four has taken a major blow and they find themselves seven points off fourth placed Man City.

Ozil was heavily criticised once again for failing to have an impact on the game. At one point the 28-year-old even made a pass to a substitute.

Arsenal’s record signing has scored ten goals and provided 11 assists so far this term.
