Despite the criticism coming his way, Mesut Ozil can point to the scoreboard when it comes to accusations of laziness.

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has slammed Ozil as "going through the motions" in the last 24 hours.

However, since February 1, the German has covered more distance in games than anyother Gooner. In the Champions League defeat to AS Monaco, Ozil 11.38 kilometres and against Everton, he ran 11.61km.

Since February 1, Ozil has covered 63.24km, more than any of his teammates, at an average of 10.84km per game.
