Scoreline didn’t reflect Arsenal performance - Ozil

Mesut Ozil felt Arsenal deserved a more comfortable scoreline following their 2-0 win over FC Basel.

The Gunners controlled the first half before getting the job done in a more subdued second lot of 45 minutes in their Champions League clash with the Swiss powerhouse.

A pair of goals from Theo Walcott in the opening 26 minutes had Arsenal in cruise control and could have been a lot worse for the visitors if goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik had not performed the way he did.
