Mkhitaryan: It's a pleasure to play alongside Ozil

The Armenian international scored Arsenal's opener against AC Milan and praised his team-mate for his two assists at San Siro

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has revealed that he loves to play alongside Arsenal team-mate Mesut Ozil and believes that the two can continue to combine to great effect for the Gunners.

The Gunners duo were instrumental in the north Londoners 2-0 win against AC Milan at San Siro on Thursday, with Ozil recording two stunning assists to guide an improved Arsenal to a first leg victory.

Mkhitaryan provided three assists on his debut against Everton but has struggled to influence an under performing Arsenal side in recent week before netting the opening goal in Milan as Arsenal silenced the 70,000 home fans.
