Mesut Ozil takes a kicking in German press
Mesut Ozil is taking a lot of stick in England for his Arsenal performances at the moment – and things aren’t any better back in his home country.
German newspaper Bild gave Ozil their worst mark possible for his performance in the Gunners’ Champions League loss to Borussia Dortmund last night.

The scoring system goes: 1 – world class; 2 – strong; 3 – average; 4 – satisfactory; 5 – Poor; 6 – Didn’t earn his money.
From those ratings, it’s fair to say they weren’t too impressed with Arsene Wenger’s men.
It could have been worse though – check out the scores they gave when Bayern Munich beat Hamburg 9-2 last year.
