Mesut Ozil can play for Arsenal because of Thomas Partey protection – Paul Merson

Ozil was left out of Mikel Arteta’s squad for the Premier League and Europa League group stages this season, and has not played a minute for the club since March.

The 32-year-old, whose contract runs out in the summer, can only be re-registered to Arsenal’s Premier League and Europa League knockout squads after the January transfer window, but Merson says the German’s skillset is perfect for the Gunners, as long as Partey is playing.

Here, Merson also insists Arteta is hampered by not knowing his best XI, and was saddened by just how fast Tottenham have overtaken his former side in spending and performances.
