Ever get the feeling you are not wanted?
Six years ago Mesut Ozil was a player in demand and on top of the world after winning the World Cup with Germany.
Now he has been left out of Arsenal's Premier League and Europa League squads.
"I want the best possible Mesut for the team," said Gunners boss Mikel Arteta on the eve of his side's game with Rapid Vienna.
"In some moments I was able to get close to that, and at the moment I have not been able to do it because I have to make the decision to leave him out of the squad.
"Here I feel at the moment, today, that I have failed."
