Arsenal crushed CSKA Moscow 4-1 at the Emirates Stadium in the Europa League quarter-final first-leg tie on Thursday.
Mesut Ozil was undoubtedly the star on the show on a night where Alexandre Lacazette and Aaron Ramsey both scored a brace.
Ozil was involved in the first goal, won the penalty for the second, setup Ramsey with a stunning third and provided the assist for the fourth.
The playmaker of Turkish origin took his assist tally to 13 for the season in the process.

It was an Ozil love fest on Twitter after the game. The 29-year-old was absolutely brilliant against CSKA so it is little surprise.

Can’t believe there are actually people who still claim Mesut Ozil is overrated and not a top player. The man is literally poetry in motion.
