Arsenal boss Unai Emery says he has board support over his management of Mesut Ozil.
Ozil, 31, has made just TWO appearances this season.
Emery said: The most important thing is the club, the team and finding a performance."
Ahead of this after-noon's home clash with Crystal Palace, Emery was pressed on why he is not selecting the club's highest-paid player despite his return to fitness.
When asked if there was any pressure from those above him to select Ozil, Emery hinted he had consulted head of football Raul Sanllehi and technical director Edu.
He replied: Here, we have one agreed strategy as a club and as a team.
Previously we were all speaking between us to take that decision.
I know all the supporters want to know something but now is not the moment to speak about him.
In the next matches we are going to decide. And when we can speak about him something differently, we will look."
