It seems that German striker Mesut Ozil has not yet overcome his crisis with Arsenal, despite his departure from the team months ago, as he took advantage of the London club's big loss on Saturday against Manchester City to send a message that made fun of Spanish coach Michael Arteta.
Arsenal lost 5-0 to Manchester City in the third stage of the English Premier League, and the team suffered the third loss in a row to score its worst start in the competition since 1955.
Ozil did not wait long after the match, and published a tweet in which he wrote, "Trust in the progress of the process," referring to previous statements by coach Arteta, who repeatedly demanded to give him confidence and patience in order to achieve success with Arsenal.

It seems that Ozil is mocking the capabilities of coach Arteta, who was the reason for his exit from Arsenal last January, after about 8 years spent with the London club.
Ozil spent one year under Arteta, who was his teammate before starting his coaching career, and participated in only 12 matches during this period, knowing that he did not participate in any meeting in the last 7 months with the London club.
And pressure on Arteta increased after today's loss, as Arsenal did not get any point yet after playing the first 3 rounds of the season, and did not score any goal.
Arteta attributed the humiliating defeat to the lack of options available to him, but called on his players to recover quickly after the club finished eighth last season and did not qualify for a European competition.
"I hope to get some players back as soon as possible," he said. "It's time to think about the current situation, we need to change things immediately. I don't think it's the right time to talk about problems, but now we have to review that result and what happened on the pitch. That's it. ".
