Arsenal fans are claiming Mesut Ozil is now better than Dennis Bergkamp

There’s no doubting Arsenal’s Mesut Ozil put in a blinder against Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Tuesday night but some fans may be getting a bit carried away.
Ozil is understandably one of the early favourites to be named Player of the Year after a barnstorming run of form in the Premier League where he has already grabbed 11 assists for the north London outfit.
But some Gooners are now claiming the German playmaker is a better player than Dennis Bergkamp ever was – a statement that’ll be viewed as sacrilege in certain corners of the Emirates.
While Ozil has put in half a good season for the Gunners after two underwhelming campaigns, the legendary Dutch forward was consistently world-class across his 11 seasons in the capital.
Sometimes it’s easy to be swayed by nostalgia but Ozil surely has some work to do before he can be mentioned in the same breath as Bergkamp.
