I have spoken to Ozil about his poor performances – Wenger

Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has confirmed he has spoken to Mesut Ozil about his lacklustre displays in recent matches.

The 28-year-old started the season very well, but has gone off the boil lately. Ozil put in another anonymous performance as the Gunners defeated Hull City 2-0 on Saturday.

Speaking to the media post-match, Wenger said: “It’s time for him to score again.

“Maybe he will find confidence back as well, because he misses chances. He has chances and he misses the chances that don’t look not feasible for him.

“I felt he did not feel confident (against Hull). It’s always a problem because you think he can deliver something special but it’s true that technically he missed things that he is not used to.”

Wenger only revealed he spoke with him before the Hull match.

“I don’t know – it can happen,” he said.

“I don’t know any specific reason. I had a chat with him (on Friday).”
