Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil has had his fair share of criticism this season, but it certainly went into overdrive after the north London derby defeat to Tottenham.

There’s no doubt that the 28-year-old is a class act when he’s in form, but if he’s not influencing a game with his attacking skills and technical quality, he can be a real liability.

With an unwanted reputation of going missing in the big games, which is continuing to get stronger, it was the same old story against Spurs on Sunday as Arsenal fell to a 2-0 defeat to their bitter rivals.

Ozil’s inability to get involved and have a real impact on the game didn’t go unnoticed, as countless Arsenal fans, rival supporters and neutrals noted that he simply hadn’t turned up.

With 11 goals and 11 assists in 38 games this season, it hasn’t been a complete disaster.
