Arsene Wenger talks Mesut Ozil 'scapegoat' comments: What Arsenal fans should think
ARSENE WENGER has sprung to Arsenal ace Mesut Ozil's defence.
Mesut Ozil - 5 things you need to know
Mesut Ozil played a starring role as Arsenal ran out 3-0 winners against West Ham last night at the Emirates.
The Gunners ended a torrid run of form as they leapfrogged Manchester United into fifth spot, four points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.
Ozil marked his 150th appearance for the north London outfit with a wonderful curled effort after he capitalised on a Jose Fonte error.
"We’re praised more than we should and punished more as well."
Ozil is widely expected to leave as he is yet to sign a contract extension.
