Mesut Özil loves life in London after settling in at Arsenal

Germany star Mesut Özil has admitted he is loving life in England having been given the full support of the Arsenal players and staff.

The former Real Madrid midfielder, who joined Arsenal in a £43million summer move, is currently on international duty as he and his team-mates prepare for Friday night's World Cup qualifier against the Republic of Ireland.

But much of the focus from the German media was on Özil 's new life in London.

"Driving on the left-hand side - I thought it would be much more difficult than it really is," he said. "But Per Mertesacker gave me some 'driving lessons' and they helped me, so I can drive there. London is an interesting city to live in. I have grown to love the place in a short space of time.

"The guys in the Arsenal team and the coaching staff are fully behind me. They have given me great responsibility and that's what I feel great about."
