These Arsenal fans call for Ozil to start against Sheffield Utd

Arsenal take on Sheffield United in the Premier League tonight, with the Gunners knowing that a victory will lift them back into the top four.

Victories for Chelsea and Leicester saw the Gunners drop into fifth over the weekend, but a win today will have them back in the all-important UEFA Champions League positions.

Arsenal fans are excited for the encounter, especially with the possibility of Hector Bellerin, Kieran Tierney and Alexandre Lacazette starting. But, these fans want Unai Emery to start someone else…

Does Ozil deserve to start?

READ ARSENAL VERDICT 

Ozil has been frozen out of the first-team squad in recent weeks by Emery, who revealed that his decision was because of other players deserving a place more than the German.

However, Ozil has been working well in training and Emery recently claimed that he was very happy with the playmaker.

In a game where the hosts are likely to be defending very deep, Ozil could be the key to unlocking their defence as he has the eye for a killer pass. The fans are desperate to see him start but it is unlikely due to the current form of Arsenal’s other attacking players.
