The German international has been in sparkling form for the Gunners since his club record £42.5m move from Real Madrid on transfer deadline day.

Despite a quiet performance in the Champions League defeat to Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, Cazorla was full of praise for his midfield partner.

"We have got to know each other and I have to say that it is very easy to have a good understanding with a great player like him, since our playing philosophy is very similar," Cazorla said.

"As the days go by we have a better association on the pitch. Mesut is a player of a different kind.

"He is a joy to watch and has a lot of talent. Like Zidane or Ronaldinho, he can be one of those players who marks an era."

Ozil scored twice in last weekend's stunning 4-1 victory over Norwich City at the Emirates Stadium.

Cazorla and Ozil are both expected to be in Arsene Wenger's starting line-up for Saturday's lunchtime kick-off away at managerless Crystal Palace.
