Mesut Ozil or Christian Eriksen? Paul Merson insists Arsenal midfielder has the edge on Tottenham rival
Arsenal greatPaul Merson says Mesut Ozil is better than Christian Eriksen when the two players are at their very best.While capable of showing moments of brilliance, Ozil can sometimes struggle to make an impact in big games for the Gunners.Ozil has even struggled to cement a place in the Gunners first team this season1

And the German is not short of critics including talkSPORT’s Adrian Durham, who said Tottenham star Christian Eriksen is the player Ozil “dreams of being”.Durham made this claim again on Drivetime on Thursday, saying: “Eriksen is incredible. He’s the player Ozil dreams of being.”However, Merson – who won two league titles for the Gunners – disagreed with the talkSPORT host, saying that if both Ozil and Eriksen were playing at their very best the Arsenal man would come out on top.Speaking to Durham and Darren Gough on Friday’s Drivetime from the Sky Sports studios, Merson said: “If they both turned up and played the best football they could then youd probably have to edge for Ozil, surely?”Merson was speaking to Durham and Goughie ahead of Arsenal’s north London derby match against Spurs on Sunday –a game you can listen to live on talkSPORT, kick-off 2.05pm.And although Ozil has found himself on the bench a few times under Unai Emery, Merson says he feels the No.10 should be starting this weekend’s derby.He added: “You have to get your best players on the pitch for this one. Its not going to be a kicking game. Half the players will be cuddling each other in the tunnel before the game. Its not like the old days.“If Arsenal are going to win theyll have to pass through Tottenham.”
