Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has sung the praises of his German teammate Mesut Ozil.
In an interview with UEFA, Ramsey hailed Ozil’s vision and passing ability.
He [Ozil] has a great eye for a ball – he has many assists – and his weight of pass is fantastic as well. He finds those little pockets of space very well and links up the play.
In a move that will be unpopular to many Gunners fans, he also praised current Chelsea midfielder, Cesc Fabregas, saying he was the best player he has played with at Arsenal.
He plays in the same position as me and to have him to look up to when I first came here. He was playing every week, assisting, scoring. He was just a very accomplished midfielder.
The Welsh international then surprisingly praised former England midfielder Scott Parker, saying he is the toughest player he has ever had to play against.
He doesn’t give you a moment’s rest on the ball and is always kicking away at your ankles or tackling you. He is definitely the toughest opponent I’ve played against.
Ramsey then moved to heap praise upon an Arsenal youngster, claiming Alex Iwobi is the most exciting talent in the squad.
Alex Iwobi is one to look out for, I think. He is very gifted and has great feet, so I am sure he will be one to look out for in the future.
The Gunners face Swansea City on Saturday afternoon and the Welshman will be a miss, having been injured in the stunning victory over Bayern Munich last week.
