Arsenal midfielder Ozil: Premier League superior to Spanish Liga

Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil rates the Premier League superior to the Spanish Liga.

Ozil claims that even if you are 4-0 up in the Premier League, you are still battling to keep hold of a lead in England.

Speaking to Sport magazine, he said: "The main difference is that in Spain and Germany, if you go 2-0 or 3-0 up, teams tend to give up and it becomes easier to keep hold of the lead.

"In England you can be 4-0 up and they will still fight to the final whistle. They also play at a faster tempo and, as a player, you also have to get used to not having a winter break. But that is what makes it so great.

"I love playing matches. I prefer playing matches to training. If I had to pick one, I would definitely say that the Premier League is the strongest out of the three."
