Mesut Ozil missed Arsenal’s 2-0 FA Cup win away to Sutton last night.
Arsene Wenger left out a number of his key stars, as he didn’t want to risk any injuries with his side playing on a plastic pitch.
After posting a picture of himself on Instagram on board a plane, Ozil was at pains to show he is Arsenal through and through.
The German midfield maestro resorted to using a filter which had the Arsenal crest and England flag plastered over his face.
A caption read: “We’ve had hard days here at @Arsenal after our last match!
We’ve had hard days here at @Arsenal after our last match! But we have to find focus again, Gooners! Wish you a successful week. ⚽ #COYG

While he was unavailable for selection for last night’s game, Ozil’s post will no doubt go down well with Gunners supporters.
Ozil’s current contract expires next summer.
Although he has yet to agree a new deal, Arsenal are keen to tie down their key man.
