Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has taken aim at Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil.
Ozil's poor display at Bayern Munich drew plenty of criticism both in England and his homeland, with manager-turned-pundit Souness not surprise to see the German playmaker called out.
Writing in his column in The Times, Souness said: "Ozil copped most of the criticism. Should we be surprised? Not really. The German is Arsenal in a nutshell.
"Against the Crystal Palaces of this world, he is an absolute worldie player. Against the big boys of the Premier League and Europe, he is an absolute world away.
"Just remember that this is a £42m player we are discussing. Is this what Real Madrid saw when they decided to sell him? Had they spotted the flaw? He was nearly 25 when he moved from the Bernabeu. That is when a player should be in his prime.
"I used to think Arsenal were only a couple of world-class players away from winning the title, most notably a holding midfielder and striker. Now they look as many as five or six away from being contenders."
