Mesut Özil has been included in Arsenal’s starting line-up which takes on Norwich City today in the Premier League.

The Gunners go into the game knowing that a victory could propel them into first place depending on other results today.

Arsene Wenger’s side will be hoping to get themselves back in the title race after their disappointing 2-1 defeat to West Brom last weekend.

Arsenal will be looking to Mesut Özil who has been breaking records as far as assists are concerned.

The 27-year-old became the first Premier League player to provide an assist in six consecutive games and then broke his own record the following week setting up yet another goal.

Özil has setup 11 goals in 12 league appearances which is the best record in Europe’s top five leagues – England, Spain, France, Italy, Germany.
