There has already been many transfer rumours which claim that the German international could be loaned or sold in the January transfer window.

It is said that Unai Emery does not like Mesut Ozil because of his poor work rate and the fact that the new Arsenal boss wants his players to press the opponents until they lose the ball but we all know that it’s a bit hard for the German international since he is a soft player.

He also replied this when asked whether he likes Mesut Ozil since most reports say that he hates the midfielder;

“I want every player with a good mentality to help us and give us their characteristics and quality. We need Mesut Ozil.” Unai Emery told Arsenal Player.

Arsenal head coach Unai Emery also said that he has talked with him as he always does with the rest of the squad and also confirmed that Mesut Ozil will either be in the starting eleven or bench on Saturday when the gunners welcome Burnley at the Emirates Stadium.
