“Mesut has that in the locker you know,” he told Arsenal Player. “When you see him finish like that, you think ‘Come on my friend - do it more often!’ because in training he scores, it’s very difficult to read for the keepers and he scores when he wants.
“And we want him to take more opportunities. There was an opportunity in the first half where he didn’t even hit the ball well and after he scores a fantastic goal.
“I think it’s coming. It’s coming and I hope these kind of goals give him the taste to do more. He has celebrated his birthday in a great way today.”
More polls coming soon!
