Arsenal star Mesut Ozil reveals why he is able to control games better this season
Mesut Ozil has already created 10 goals for Arsenal this season
ARSENAL midfielder Mesut Ozil believes he is playing better this season because the team is functioning well.
 
The German international has already created 10 goals in the Premier League so far this season and has helped the Gunners to joint-top of the table alongside Manchester City. 
While Ozil's individual form has been heavily praised, the 27-year-old believes it is the team's collective performances have allowed him to flourish.
"I think as a team you can see that we've become more mature," he told Arsenal's official website. "We've learnt from our mistakes and you can see on the pitch that we're more steady.
 
"We've had some setbacks this season but we've learnt from them and it shows on the pitch that my teammates are looking for me even more and I'm able to control the game better. 
"You can see that we function well as a team. It doesn't matter who plays from the start, we're always there. You need a big squad if you are to be successful and that's why things are working well.
"When you look at the past seasons, we’ve always been a technically-strong team but when we played against big teams, we dropped points. In the second half of last season and in this year so far, we’ve proved ourselves against the biggest teams.
"You learn from your mistakes and we can measure ourselves with the best. That distinguishes us as a team."
