Carragher: Time for Ozil to step up at Arsenal

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher says it's time for Mesut Ozil to step up at Arsenal.

The Gunners go to Anfield today.

Carragher wrote in the Daily Mail: "I've been a fan of his since I saw him at the World Cup finals in 2010 and I was genuinely excited about the prospect of the Germany midfielder displaying his skills in the Barclays Premier League.

"With four goals and eight assists, he has had a good start. But that is all it has been.

"Over the next fortnight, Arsene Wenger will want Ozil to show why he invested £42million in him; when you spend world-class prices on world-class talent, you want to see them produce in the games that matter."
