Jose Mourinho gives Arsenal tips over handling Mesut Ozil

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has given Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger some advice regarding how to get the best out of Mesut Ozil.

The two worked together at Real Madrid, but have both moved on since, with Mourinho returning to Chelsea, and Ozil signing for Arsenal, becoming the club’s most expensive transfer signing.

The £42million-man had a mixed debut season in England, starting well, but slowly fading as the campaign came to an end, but hopes are high within the Arsenal camp that he can shine next season after he’s settled into English football and adapted to the Premier League’s style.

Ozil, who is currently in Brazil for the World Cup with Germany, got criticised heavily last season by several figures in football, but his former-boss has been quick to reveal how to get the best out of him.

‘Mesut I know well from our time together at Real Madrid,’ he explained on his Yahoo! blog.

‘He’s a very sensitive boy. He needs the confidence of the others. The need to believe in him.

‘For example after his substitution in the game against Portugal, he was cheered by someone immediately. He’s a sweet boy, he just needs a little encouragement.’

Whether this is Mourinho offering a helping hand to Wenger, or him taking another sly dig is unknown, but The Special One clearly thinks the Frenchman could be dealing with the German slightly better.
