Arsenal legend Dennis Bergkamp says Mesut Ozil could be the Gunners' missing link.
The former Dutch international striker said the £42 million German playmaker was a "tremendous" player and "the one who can make a difference".
Bergkamp told the Daily Telegraph: "I believe he can be very important to the team.
"He is a tremendous player with a lot of effective skills, like controlling the ball, making creative passes and assists, taking the right position in the field every time.
"And he's extremely experienced.
"Putting all that together I think you've got a player who can be the missing link in the Arsenal team, a player who will make a striker score goals, who will link up in Arsenal's position game and who will score goals as well."
Bergkamp, 44, added: "With all the respect to the other Arsenal players, I think he is the one who can make a difference.
"The other players are good in midfield.
"But you need someone of a high level who can be good in all areas of the pitch."
