Arsenal's resurrection:Can Mesut Ozil pull off a league title victory for arsenal?

Mesut Ozil wasn’t wrong when he had warned Arsenal mates against complacency ahead of their Champions League meeting with Borussia Dortmund which ended in 1-2 defeat on Tuesday, despite displaying a superior technical play.Whatever Mesut Ozil does these days onfield comes with a flash of class-whether be it his current form in Premier league or wizardry skills with not football but chewinggum.Wenger’s side has been synonymous with precision,pace and technical elegance and recent inclusion of Ozil has reflamed the long,inquisition scarred wait for a trophy win.What it means to be Ozil is evident from post transfer responses from Real Madrid where Cristiano Ronaldo was quoted as being "angry" about the decision of transfer to Arsenal, calling it "very bad news for me".

With nine matches into the 2013-14 Barclays Premier League season, Arsenal is at the top of the league table and with one of the best midfielders in the side,its eyeing a full frontal blitzkrieg to end its 9 year long title drought.Arsenal’s display of elegance against Norwich city in a 4-1 victory is sign of what yet has to come and with likes of Wilshere,Podolski,Ramsey and Walcott on the side ,winning is just a matter of luck now.In words of Dortmund’s Jurgen Klopp,"Arsenal is no longer a team that relies solely on Santi Cazorla to produce magic in the final third".It has transformed over the past year with Olivier Giroud looking sharper this season,Ramsey continuing to be in bouyant form and Wilshere displaying his own share of excellence. the three highest-rated Premier League players of the season are all Arsenal players (Ramsey, Özil, and striker Olivier Giroud). Gunners never had a better midfield in past few years with Ozil, Cazorla, Wilshere, Ramsey, Arteta, Rosicky, Flamini and a few other fringe players all competing for just three spaces in midfield.

But the big question still remains unanswered-what ozil brings to the table that nobody else can?It was no surprise when Gunners legend Dennis Bergkamp hailed the Germany playmaker as "the one who can make a difference".Seen as one of the most technically sound players,Ozil is a sort of player who can fire the dressing room,sabotage opponents with his electrifying speed and precision and rejuvenate the crowd with Arsenal spirit.His close control, deceptive speed and predatory instincts have made him Wenger’s favorite and his playmaking skills are giving Giroud scoring opportunities that were unseen last season.Pires,an ex-gunner who inspired Arsenal’s 2003/04 title win,compared Özil with Zinedine Zidane , in terms of vision, touch and genius to make others play around him,except he needs much more aggression to touch that level.What is yet to be seen is whether Ozil can revive that golden age of talismanic players,seen in the deep nineties,which hasn’t been observed in the Premier League for a long time . Can Ozil do something for Arsenal that can put him in league of of Eric Cantona and Alan Shearer?
