Mesut Ozil on his favourite goal: "The one against Ludogorets was like on PES! Passing four opponents then scoring, it was my best goal."
He also scored an UCL hattrick vs same opponents.

His best performance (for me) that will stay in Arsenal fans' memory was vs Leicester in 2018.

MY OPINION:
I'm not an "Ozil fan boy", but I can appreciate him for his time here. Shame it's finished like this. Important player in Arsenal history and wonderful human being. I'm sure he will keep fighting and good luck to him in next step, wherever it is!
