Arsenal boss Wenger expects Ozil to thrive in Champions League

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger expects Mesut Ozil to be in his element tonight against Marseille.

Wenger certainly believes the German can make his impact felt immediately.

"He is suited to the Champions League as when you have a good technical level, you are suited to this competition," he said. "It is usually two teams that are used to playing at the top of their league so it is two teams who try to create chances. In this kind of game, the creative players are of course very important."
