Mikel Arteta hopes to help Mesut Ozil regain the leadership role lost under Unai Emery at London's Arsenal team.
The German became a solid starter immediately after M. Arteta's return to the Arsenal club. The strategist revealed that he will build the game around M. Ozil.
"Our goal now is to help Ozil regain proper physical form," - said M. Arteta at a press conference. - "He has made progress, we see it in every training session."
"I am not surprised by his abilities on the field, I know very well what caliber of player we have in our hands. Our plan is to create a structure from which Ozil can extract his best qualities.
Of course, he alone cannot do all the work. We need a collective structure, organization, and the help of team friends. In the world, there are only one or two players who alone can decide the outcome of a match.
Ozil needs help, he also needs his teammates to play in a style that allows him to use all his strengths. That's what we're working on," - added M. Arteta.
