Arsene Wenger his dismissed reports that the Arsenal team have become ‘angered’ by Mesut Ozil’s attitude, insisting the German playmaker is genuinely injury.
Reports in Tuesday’s newspapers suggested Ozil’s team-mates were growing tired of the midfielder’s ‘prima donna attitude’.
It is claimed a number of the Gunners team suspect Ozil of picking and choosing when he plays, and is currently over exaggerating a back injury after declaring himself unavailable for their last two games.
Ozil, who has not started 25 of Arsenal’s 58 matches this season, also missed a bulk of games earlier in the season due to a mystery illness.
