Mesut Ozil played the full 90 minutes during Arsenal’s shock defeat at the hands of Swansea City in the Premier League yesterday evening.
The 27-year-old has been in impressive form of late but was unable to add to his assist record.
Following the game we took to social media to see how Ozil’s performance went down with fans. The Germany international received a positive reaction from fans for his display despite his sides defeat.
A large portion of Arsenal fans went as far to say that their side is fortunate to have Ozil and that the former Real Madrid man may opt to leave the club in July.
If Mesut Ozil leaves Arsenal in the summer, I wouldn't blame him.

Joel Campbell and Mesut Ozil have been our only consistent players all season. When Campbell was a regular the results were terrific.
