Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that his club are very lucky to have a player like Mesut Ozil playing for them.

The German international signed for the North London club from Spanish giants Real Madrid for a whopping ÂŁ43million, but since his arrival, he has already managed to bag one goal and three assists.

His first goal for the club came last night against Napoli in the Champions League as he beautifully volleyed home from an Aaron Ramsey cross.

Ozil then set up Olivier Giroud for the second in the 2-0 win and after the game Wenger admitted that the club are lucky to have such a talented player on their books.

Wenger said: “He had an amazing first half. He had individual skill, team play, finishing and the final ball. You just sit there and enjoy it.

“I loved him when he was at Real Madrid. I thought he was great and we’re just lucky to have got him.”

“I believe he enjoys playing football. He enjoys playing with his partners. He has integrated quickly and he has come in at a period when we are doing well.

“Of course he has given a lift to everyone at the club and belief – and belief is a part of the success in football.”
