Mesut Ozil was back in the thick of things in Arsenal training on Sunday despite missing the 0-0 draw with Everton just 24 hours earlier through injury. The playmaker was pictured being buffeted with a huge pad by the Gunners’ head fitness coach Shad Forsythe at London Colney as Mikel Arteta took his first training session since returning to Arsenal. Arsenal obviously aren’t too concerned about the injury, though, with Ozil not being given an easy ride as Arteta put players through their paces. Ozil was one of several players to run the gauntlet as Forsythe offered up some resistance by pushing him with a tackle shield.
