Mesut Ozil
After a blistering start to his Arsenal career, Mesut Ozil has since come under criticism from the media for perceived underwhelming performances.
However, the Germany international is a wonderful passer and mover of the ball in the final third, and is a crucial part of Arsene Wenger’s plan to pass teams to death, rotating possession until an opposition player is pulled out position and a gap can be exploited.
Of players currently plying their trade in the Premier League, only Manchester City’s David Silva can match Ozil in this field, finding space between the lines and exploiting it to maximum effect.
