Arsenal team news: Star playmaker breaks all time Premier League record

Arsenal extended their Premier League win streak to three games following the 4-1 victory over Hull City at the KCOM stadium.

Germany international of Turkish origin Mesut Ozil started for the Gunners but did not add to his assist or goal tally over the course of the 90 minutes.

Ozil did however, manage to break the all time Premier League record for most passes completed in a single game.

The playmaker completed an incredible 104 passes against Hull at a 94 percent accuracy meaning he made 104 of his attempted 110 passes.
