Just making his way back from injury and finding his form, Ozil picks pockets of spaces out like no other player.
When on form, the German is someone to seriously watch – but can be bullied off the ball and taken out of the game – and Karanka will have made his defenders all too aware of that.
Stopping one of Arsenal’s players is one thing, but all of their forwards is quite another and Ozil could well be the one to punish any lapses in concentration.
