Former Arsenal star Mesut Ozil, known for his playmaking prowess, recently showcased his cheeky side on social media by taking a shot at rival club Tottenham Hotspur. Following Spurs’ 2-1 defeat to West Ham, where they became the first team in Premier League history to lead in five consecutive games without securing a victory, Ozil couldn’t resist a dig.

Responding to Opta’s tweet highlighting Tottenham’s unique record, Ozil quote-tweeted, saying, *”Who else should be able to break that record? Bottle Job FC is back.”* The unexpected comment left fans both stunned and amused, with some even double-checking to confirm it was indeed Ozil’s official account.

While Ozil’s dig at Tottenham was met with surprise, some football enthusiasts quickly reminded him of Arsenal’s challenges, particularly their failure to secure the Premier League title last season despite being eight points clear with a game in hand. Ozil’s playful banter reignited the age-old rivalry between Arsenal and Tottenham, adding a touch of humor to the post-football banter.

Here is the highlight video of Mesut Ozil’s goals, assists, and skills while he was playing for Arsenal.
