Remember this?
My favourite Ozil video of all time. I still remember when Arsenal uploaded this after Auba announcement video, I literally stared celebrating in the middle of my class. If Ozil doesn’t make you happy, you don’t know football. Happy birthday @MesutOzil1088. pic.twitter.com/CvXCehPwih

Ozil has struggled for playing time recently, what do you think of this suggestion?
Happy birthday to @MesutOzil1088
?231 apps ⚽️ 43 goals ?️ 74 Assists ? FA cups X3
Ozil massively splits opinion & is past his best, he should no longer be a guaranteed starter but should definitely be more involved than he currently is. #AFC

Ozil did not feature for over the international break as he quit the Germany national team after a bust-up last summer.

As a result he is match fit and will be hoping to return to the team after being dropped for several games by head coach Unai Emery.
Ozil has not featured in the last three league games for Arsenal and was not in the squad for the past two games.
The north London outfit take on Sheffield United away next, it remains to be seen whether the playmaker of Turkish origin will feature.
