Arsenal winger Henrikh Mkhitaryan has lavished praise on teammate Mesut Ozil following his display in the Gunners' 2-0 Europa League win over AC Milan.
Ozil provided two memorable assists for Mkhitaryan and Aaron Ramsey at San Siro, as Arsenal brought an end to a problematic losing run with a victory on the road in the first leg of their last-16 clash.
When asked about the practicalities of playing in the same side as Ozil, Mkhitaryan was quick to laud the abilities of the Germany international.
"Yes, everyone is asking about [being able to play in the same team as Ozil], but why not?" Mkhitaryan said when speaking to Vivaro News.
"This is not the first time that two number tens play together. It's just a pleasure to play alongside such a player like Mesut Ozil, because everyone knows that he is a world-class player.
"If I'm not mistaken, he provided two assists for the first and second goals. Why not? He can assist me and I can assist him as well."
Mkhitaryan's goal against AC represents the Armenian's first for the Gunners since joining from Manchester United in January.
