1Eriksen, Kane and Dele are sensational, can we say all three are world class?Eriksen is incredible – hes the player Mesut Ozil dreams of being. @talkSPORTDrive has his say on #THFC pic.twitter.com/PwIXzANvU0— talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) November 29, 2018However, Merson – who won two league titles for the Gunners – disagreed with the talkSPORT host, saying that if both Ozil and Eriksen were playing at their very best the Arsenal man would come out on top.Speaking to Durham and Darren Gough on Friday’s Drivetime from the Sky Sports studios, Merson said: “If they both turned up and played the best football they could then youd probably have to edge for Ozil, surely?”Merson was speaking to Durham and Goughie ahead of Arsenal’s north London derby match against Spurs on Sunday –a game you can listen to live on talkSPORT, kick-off 2.05pm.And although Ozil has found himself on the bench a few times under Unai Emery, Merson says he feels the No.10 should be starting this weekend’s derby.He added: “You have to get your best players on the pitch for this one. Its not going to be a kicking game. Half the players will be cuddling each other in the tunnel before the game. Its not like the old days.“If Arsenal are going to win theyll have to pass through Tottenham.”
