Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno has raved about his teammate Mesut Ozil on SoccerAM.
Leno has hailed the passing ability of the German attacking midfielder, and has said that fans do not always notice how he brings his teammates into good positions.
Leno said about Ozil on SoccerAM, as transcribed by Goal.com: “I think his passing is very good, it’s unbelievable.
“Of course, in the last time he didn’t make too many assists but when you see how many chances he creates, he is maybe playing the one pass before the assist.
“He brings his team-mates into good positions and many people, they don’t see this.
“But when you see him every day in training and also on the pitch, you can feel how important he is and how important his passing is for the team.”
