Mesut Ozil responds to Arsenal beating Liverpool and singles out former teammate

Former Arsenal star Mesut Ozil has hailed Bukayo Saka after the winger's starring role in the Gunners' thrilling win over Liverpool on Sunday.

Saka had a major hand in creating Gabriel Martinelli 's opening goal before scoring twice himself to hand Mikel Arteta's men all three points. It was another impressive display from the 21-year-old, who has had a huge role in Arsenal's charge to the top of the Premier League table.
