6) Ozil could be on a new level next season
It is well established that Mesut Ozil has shown remarkable improvement in the second half of this season, and this wonderful performance in the cup final may have been the best of the lot. The German playmaker was superb on the ball, fooling Villa players with his touch and finding team-mates with his incredible vision. He almost never wasted a touch and looked the kind of decisive contributor we’ve seen for Real Madrid and Germany in the past. After two consecutive seasons of not being able to take part in pre-season training with Arsenal, Ozil should now get a proper rest this summer and then link up with the squad again before the 2015/16 campaign starts, meaning he will get more of a chance to fine-tune his understanding with his team-mates and with what his manager wants him to do. In his third season of English football, a more settled and confident Ozil could become one of the best players in the country.
