Mesut Ozil covers up with a blanket inside the stadium to watch Sanchez deliver against Southampton

Ozil keeps warm at the Emirates stadium while watching team-mates against Southampton 

Arsene Wenger's strikeforce failed to find the back of the net for most part of the game against Southampton until late in the game when Sanchez pounced after a fabulous display to hand a 1-0 win to Arsenal.

But how can he get Danny Welbeck to improve after missing a host of chances against Saints? How much longer can he rely on Alexis Sanchez to get Arsenal out of jail? Should he get Thierry Henry at the club as a coach, passing on his expertise, as soon as possible? 

Everyone, it seemed, had forgotten about one of the World Cup winners missing from Arsenal's ranks. 

Ozil is recovering from the injury he suffered against Chelsea and won't be available until next year

But playmaker Mesut Ozil watched his team break down Ronald Koeman's side and while the performance had plenty of room for improvement, the result got his seal of approval.

'Job well done' he put, alongside a picture of him watching the game wrapped up in a blanket as winter sets in across England.

Ozil was ruled out of action for 12 weeks with a knee injury at the start of October and Arsenal will no doubt be hoping he can return to top form when he returns in the new year.
