Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has admitted to the club’s official website he is still looking to improve, specifically his ability to play with his right foot.
The German midfielder has been in fine form at the beginning of this campaign, playing a key role in Arsenal’s strong start to the season.
He is currently on seven goals in 14 games, the club’s second highest goalscorer in all competitions.

It is fair to say he has impressed and continued to establish himself among the best players in world football.
It seems he is not resting on his laurels, though, and says there is one specific area of his game he is looking to improve.
“I think it’s really important [to keep working],” he told Arsenal’s official website.
“If you want to develop as a footballer, you have to work on your weaknesses every day. I’m working hard on that – for example, I’m not ambidextrous, so I’m working on my right foot too.”

If there is one area that Arsenal will be hoping Ozil can improve in this season, it will be his assists.
He was by far the best in the league in that regard last season but so far has only managed three in 13 domestic and European games so far.
That is a disappointing tally for a player who had 13 in 43 in both competitions last season and they will be keen to see him start picking up more as the campaign progresses.
