Mesut Ozil has inherited Dennis Bergkamps role as Arsenals maestro, according to club great Robert Pires.Ozil topped Arsenals assist chart last season and has added goals this time around, scoring seven in 17 appearances including a first senior hat-trick.Arsene Wenger this month said Ozil could not be considered in the same bracket as Bergkamp unless he signs a new contract with the club. Man Utd vs Arsenal November 19, 2016, 11:30am Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass But Pires, who twice played alongside the Dutchman in Premier League title-winning sides and is still a regular at the Arsenal training ground, says Ozil is the current sides equivalent of the man Gunners supporters call God.Something has clicked, Pires told the club website as Ozil and Arsenal prepare for Saturdays live Sky Sports game at Manchester United. Whats happened in the head is like a click because hes scored a lot of goals.This is a difference between the last season with Mesut Ozil and now because hes thinking just for himself, and sometimes when you are in front of the target it is very important to score a goal. Dennis Bergkamp won seven major honours as an Arsenal player Mesut has very good qualities, he can normally score a minimum of 12 goals during the Premier League so in my time the maestro was Dennis Bergkamp, and now it is Mesut Ozil.I love them both because they play very good football but they play for the team. Not for himself, they play for the team. This point is very important for the future and of course for Arsenal.

The last five between these two have gone to the home side, with four of those being by 13+. Sharks did win 32-15 at home earlier in year, but the Canes are near unbeatable at home, and are the shortest priced favourite of the round.Greg Growdens verdict:?Hurricanes should walk over the Sharks in comfortable fashion.Lions v Crusaders, Ellis Park, JohannesburgKey stat (Opta Stats)The Crusaders have won their last seven games against the Lions, scoring 28 points or more on all but one occasion.Line-upsLions:?Andries Coetzee, Ruan Combrrinck, Lionel Mapoe, Rohan Janse Van Rensburg, Courtnal Skosan, Elton Jantjies, Faf de Klerk, Warren Whiteley (captain), Warwick Tecklenburg, Jaco Kriel, Franco Mostert, Andries Ferreira, Julian Redelinghuys, Malcolm Marx, Dylon Smith Replacements: Armand van der Merwe, Corne Fourie, Jacques Van Rooyen, Ruan Ackermann, Cyle Brink, Ross Cronje, Howard Mnisi, Jaco van der Walt / Sylvian MahuzaCrusaders:?Israel Dagg, Johnny McNicholl, Ryan Crotty, David Havili, Jone Macilai, Richie Mounga, Andy Ellis, Kieran Read (captain), Matt Todd, Jordan Taufua, Sam Whitelock, Luke Romano, Owen Franks, Codie Taylor, Wyatt Crockett Replacements: Ben Funnell, Alex Hodgman, Mike Alaalatoa, Scott Barrett, Jimmy Tupou, Mitchell Drummond, Ben Volavola, Kieron Fonotia.ddddddddddddTeam NewsLions captain Warren Whiteley has been cleared to play after struggling with a shoulder injury.The Crusaders have made five changes to the 23 that played the Hurricanes last weekend.

The only changes to the backs are Jone Macilai taking the wing in the place of the injured Nemani Nadolo, and Ben Volavola taking a spot in the reserves in place of Mitchell Hunt.UBET verdict: Lions $1.85, Crusaders $1.95.?Not much separating these two in the betting. The Lions rested all of their players last week, and have lost 12 of the last 13 vs. the Crusaders, but are a different side in 2016. The worry for the Lions is that they have played three Kiwi sides at home this year, and only beat the Blues, and prior to that lost to the Hurricanes and Crusaders (Round 6 lost by six). Early money is with the Crusaders.Greg Growdens verdict:?Lions to prevail.Stormers v Chiefs, Newlands, Cape TownKey stat (Opta Stats)No player has beaten more defenders than Damian McKenzie and the Chiefs full-back is just seven carries shy of becoming the second player to make 200 carries this season.Line-upsStormers:?Jaco Taute, Kobus van Wyk, Huw Jones, Damian de Allende, Leolin Zas, Robert du Preez, Nic Groom, Schalk Burger (co-captain), Siya Kolisi, Sikhumbuzo Notshe, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Eben Ezebeth, Vincent Koch, Bongi Mbonambi, Alistair Vermaak.

With Liam Messam unavailable, Tom Sanders shifts over to No. 8 and is joined in the back-row by Taleni Seu and co-captain Sam Cane.UBET verdict: Stormers $2.25, Chiefs $1.65.?Another tricky match here. The Stormers have not played a NZ side all season which is pretty bizarre; but come into this game having won their last four at home. That was against the Kings, Force, Rebels and Cheetahs however; so poor opposition. The Chiefs can travel and win, and that is where the money has gone.Greg Growdens verdict:?Despite the long travel, Chiefs to get by Stormers in a nail biter.? ' ' '
