Germany sensation and former Real madrid player has said that his current team can lift the epl title come May as he shook off a chest infection to ensure his side beat Manchester City yesternite.
Ozil, 27, took his tally of league assists to 15 as he set up first-half goals for Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud and the midfielder insists that the Gunners can end their 12-year wait to regain the title this season.
“We believe in ourselves,” Ozil told Sky Sports. “If you see the games against the big clubs, we won against them so we know our quality, if we play our game we can win the league. We will give our best all the season for the title.
“We have had a lot of difficult games, we are happy to win against Man City and we take the three points. All the team are happy and me too.
“I’m happy to help the team, on the pitch I can play my game so I just try to help. Today was again an important game and I tried to give my best.”
The victory moved Arsenal four points clear of City in second place, two points behind leaders Leicester City going into the Christmas period, and manager Arsene Wenger was impressed the Germany international was able to contribute after being ill this week.
