Arsenal's magician dazzles again at the Emirates

While Welbeck had the last word against Leicester, Mesut Ozil produced another standout display.

Danny Welbeck grabbed the headlines with the winning goal on his return from injury in Arsenal's 2-1 victory at home to Barclays Premier League title rivals Leicester City on Sunday but Mesut Ozil was the not-so-secret weapon igniting their comeback win.

The German playmaker led the BPL for chances created in Matchweek 26 with six and also tops that category for the season with 106, 28 more than nearest challenger Christian Eriksen, who scored Tottenham Hotspur's winner at Manchester City on Sunday.

It is no surprise Ozil has the most assists in the league this season, setting up Welbeck for the winner to take his tally to 17, seven more than Riyad Mahrez, who was sacrificed at Emirates Stadium when Danny Simpson's sending off saw the Foxes go down to 10 men.

Manchester City's successive defeats to Leicester and Spurs have seen them fall behind in the title race. That could be down to their recent defensive frailties, because carving out opportunities is no problem for Manuel Pellegrini's men. They lead the way this season for chances created as a team with 349.

Everton topped the team chance tally at the weekend with 26 but they were all in vain as the Toffees went down 1-0 at home to West Bromwich Albion.

Aaron Lennon, reproducing his best form early in 2016, set up five opportunities for Toffees team-mates in that frustrating reverse, while impressive newcomer Wahbi Khazri matched Lennon's return as Sunderland registered a 2-1 win at home to Manchester United.
