Arsene Wenger

Arsene Wenger saw his side put one foot into the semi-finals of the Europa League with a convincing win over CSKA Moscow before hailing the brilliance of Mesut Ozil. The German ran the show for the Gunners as Aaron Ramsey and Alexandre Lacazette brace each in a 4-1 victory. Ramsey opened the scoring before Lacazette scored from penalty.

Ozil then provided the assist for Ramsey to score a third before he laid on Lacazette's second. "Of course Ozil enjoys it," Wenger said. "And I hope you enjoy it because we see a great football player. When you love football, that's what you want to see.

"We scored some great goals in the first half and at half-time the target was not to concede anymore and, if possible, add another one. We did the first part of the job in the second half but not the second part of the job."
