Arsenal legend George Graham feels Mesut Ozil can still win over manager Unai Emery.

Graham says Ozil needs to work harder off the ball.

"Mesut Ozil has to admit he's got to improve without the ball. On the ball he's a talent. When Arsenal are in possession he should be in the game as much as possible. When they are not in possession he can — can — become a liability," he told the Daily Mail.

"It would be brilliant if he had Patrick Vieira and Emmanuel Petit in midfield because they'd win the ball and give it to him, but they're not and they've got this problem and the manager isn't trying to hide it. I like that the other players will see he's great on the ball but doesn't contribute when they're up against it.

"Sometimes you can carry a player but the higher up you go the more your forwards have to work."
