(Reuters) - Arsenal midfielder Alex Iwobi praised 'world class' team mate Mesut Ozil for his role in Thursday's 3-0 Europa League win over BATE Borisov, although manager Unai Emery has not guaranteed the German midfielder a starting spot going forward.
Arsenal overcame a 1-0 deficit to move into the last-16 with a 3-1 aggregate win during which Ozil, who missed the first leg in Belarus, started only his second game in the club's last 11 fixtures in all competitions.
