Former Arsenal midfielder Freddie Ljungberg has questioned the club`s decision to release Mesut Ozil from their Premier League squad and said he has slightly better players in the defensive than the German playmaker. Ozil has not played for Arsenal since March and has not been on the Premier League and Europa League rosters, effectively removing the 32-year-old midfielder until January, when the club adviced by bury temporarily renounced the swiss national team may introduce new names. With no clear playmaker in the squad, Arsenal seemed powerless in attack, scoring just 10 goals in 11 Premier League games. Arteta`s team is 15th with 11 points from leader Tottenham. Ljungberg, who took over as interim manager at Arsenal when Unai Emery was sacked last season and helped Arteta until August, said he did not know why Ozil was not in the squad. `When you have such a footballer, withou t saying you have to play every week . . . but when you have possession and you have to find that crucial pass, I don`t think there are better players than Mesut in that respect. Of course, you lose a little bit in defense, but this is a decision they made, I don`t know why it was made and it`s out of the 25-man team, so they can`t use it, but I don`t think about that position. that there are much better in the world, `said Lungberg Sky Sports.
