Mesut Ozil, the Arsenal playmaker

Arguably, one of the most gifted players to ever play in his position, Mesut Ozil, is easily one of the first names that strikers want on the team-sheet. He sees empty spaces that not even the best can see and his link-up play is just as delicious.

Though some believe that he has a habit of crumbling under pressure when it comes to performing against the big clubs but that it is not always the case.

And when the German with Turkish roots does come to the party he makes opposition defenders look like teenage boys playing a man's game. He is every striker's dream partner with his pass-first instinct giving the striker enough opportunities to put their name on the score sheet.

Last season was a pretty ordinary one by his standards, yet he finished with 4 goals and 8 assists in the 26 games he played for the gunners. He was the most constant source of attacking threat where the likes of Iwobi and Sanchez just failed to stamp their authority. And with Lacazette taking time to adjust to his new surroundings there was nothing much the German wizard could have done differently.

Don't forget that this is the person who has 50 assists already to his name till date in his short span at Arsenal. Add to that the 27 goals he has scored in less than 150 appearances and any team will gladly shell out a fortune for his services.
