Which attacker has been the most influential since Ozil joined Real Madrid.
The battle of Old Trafford on Sunday went to Manchester United despite Arsenal having been the better side in the Premier League so far this season.
Wayne Rooney was pinpointed as one of the key factors in the Red Devils’ success, whilst the previously impressive Mesut Ozil looked off the pace.
The German has been in fine form since arriving at the Emirates Stadium on transfer deadline day for a £42.4m fee from Real Madrid.
Yet Ozil was in the shadow of the United star at the weekend and the two men are regarded as two of the best players in world football.
Therefore since 2010 – the year the Germany international joined Madrid – fanatix has decided to compare and contrast the success of these two attackers.
Mesut Ozil
Goals: 30.
Assists: 87.
Trophies: La Liga, Copa Del Rey.
It was easy to tell just how highly regarded Ozil was at the Santiago Bernabeu based on the uproar that ensued when the 25-year-old was sold this summer.
During the attacking midfielder’s time in the Spanish capital the German formed an almost telepathic bond with Cristiano Ronaldo and provided more assists than any other player in Europe between 2010 and 2013.
Since arriving in north London a renewed confidence and self belief has emerged around the club, largely due to the fact that Ozil has world class talent.
