Mesut Ozil reveals interesting facts from his move to Arsenal

Arsenal star Mesut Ozil says he always wanted to play for Arsenal, because Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Robert Pires were the players that he was watching during his early ages. Those players were inspiring German international to love the style of Gunners. “When I had moved to Real Madrid, Arsene had asked me if I wanted to come to Arsenal. I said ‘believe me in the future, if I have the opportunity to change my club, you will be the first place for me’. Ozil said (via football.london) “After that, we spoke and I decided to come to Arsenal because I remembered watching Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Robert Pires - such great footballers - and I wanted to be part of that too.” “I’ve been told so many times over the years that this is how Bergkamp played. Of course that makes me proud and it is an honour to be compared to him. Bergkamp is a living legend at arsenal and he was an amazing footballer. “But I do not want to compare myself with anybody. I have my own style and I’ve had it since I was a kid. I am proud of these comparisons, but I am Mesut Ozil.” he added. Arsenal are unbeaten for 15 games in all competitions under Unai Emery. Gunners will face Wolverhampton on Sunday.
