While it should be good news when your players come back from illness, a section of Arsenal fans has remained adamant on their hate for attacking midfielder Mesut Ozil.
Ozil, alongside Sead Kolasinac, was not included in the squad to face Newcastle on the opening day after “further security incidents” following an attempted car-jacking by an armed gang in July.
We watch football to pretend the world is not falling apart. Then Ozil and Kolasinac are carjacked by knifewelding gang. Some courage from Kolasinac though. Best Arsenal defending you will see this season pic.twitter.com/WpQZm5Y1yA

The 30-year-old sat out of the majority of training last week with illness but Kolasinac returned and was named on the bench for Saturday’s 2-1 win over Burnley at Emirates Stadium.
After returning to London this week, Ozil joined his teammates in training and is set to feature in their Saturday’s match against Liverpool at Anfield.
We've got some good news ahead of #LIVARS đź‘Ť

Ironically, some of the Gunners fans’ are not impressed by Ozil’s return as they call for coach Unai Emery to bench him during the crucial Liverpool clash.
Check out some of their reactions;

Ozil back in training is no good news for me. He just isn’t a big team player.
