Unai Emery speaks on Mesut Ozil

Unai Emery has described Mesut Ozil as a "very important player" for Arsenal. Ozil did not play in the 3-1 win over West Ham last weekend because of illness. Resports were claiming that Ozil and Unai Emery had some issues in the training ground but the Arsenal manager explained the situation to Sky Sports: "Throughout my career I have respect for the media, for newspaper, radio, TV, but there are a lot of people in the media and at not every moment is the information real. "It isn't true the news. It's easy for me to say it's not true, our one is true, and I need to be quiet or say it. "For me that is one thing; I don't stop during my career for everything that the news says about me or the players. But in this situation with Mesut Ozil it is clear, he is OK, he has the commitment we want, he is a very important player for us and we want to help him to give us the best performance in each match and each moment." Ozil returned to training on Tuesday and is expected to be in the squad to face Cardiff on Sunday.
