Arsenal hero Keown: Willock will be very different to Ozil

Arsenal hero Martin Keown believes Joe Willock still has some work to do to be a first team regular.

Keown believes Willock still has a bit of work to do before fulfilling his potential in that role.

“I think confidence is the key word because sometimes I think he's trying to overplay and I just want him to slow down just a little bit because he has got an array of passes, he has got vision," Keown said on BT Sport.

“He's got great energy that he brings to that position.

“He's going to play completely different to an Ozil would.

“He'll press really high out of possession, give something different to the team and he's of course so young.

“You see how young these kids are at Arsenal but doing exceptionally well at the same time."
