Mesut Ozil given the worst rating possible by German newspaper Bild after Dortmund display

German newspaper Bild have given Arsenal and Germany star Mesut Ozil their worst possible rating for his performance in the 2-0 defeat against Borussia Dortmund.

Ozil was widely criticised for his part in the Gunners' defeat.

But the German paper have gone a step further, giving Ozil six - while that might seem like a high rating Bild operate a different system than is familiar to us.

The paper ranks from one to six with one being 'world class' and six representing a player who 'didn't earn his money'.

A score of two is strong, three average, four sufficient and five weak.

Kieran Gibbs, Danny Welbeck and Wojciech Szczesny were the highest scorers, both with three, while five players - Laurent Koscielny, Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey, Alexis Sanchez - all scored fives.

Bild were obviously impressed with Dortmund's performance as Ciro Immobile, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Kevin Grossgreutz all scored one, and no player dropped below a two.
