Mesut Ozil scored his first goal for fourth months against West Ham with Wenger admitting the German had struggled mentally after the defeats to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
According to ESPN journalist Mattias Karen, Wenger mentioned that the team's disastrous European end knocked Ozil around and he has only now recovered.
'I think he suffered when we went out of the Champions League and he was really down for a while. But focus is back now.

An increasingly desperate Bilic threw on Diafra Sakho to replace Andy Carroll up front for his first West Ham game since November. The Gunners simply can not afford to drop more points against West Ham United or their top 4 hopes will start to look very unrealistic.
Germany World Cup victor Mertesacker, who was on the bench last night after a long injury lay-off, said in his notes in last night's match day programme: "As a squad we trust each other, but sometimes you might just miss a little something, individually or collectively".
Bilic's team lost 3-0 at London rivals Arsenal on Wednesday and host third-bottom Swansea City on Saturday, knowing that anything other than a win will draw them even deeper into the relegation dog fight. "It's not being negative, it's being realistic", Bilic told BBC Sport. We need to be patient and have trust and faith in ourselves. When we won six games out of nine, which was right before these five defeats, I was saying we are in a good situation but there are still lots of points to play for and there is a job to be done.
Spurs eventually turned it around and left the Liberty Stadium with all three points, ensuring that the Hammers still have some breathing space between themselves and Saturday's opponents.
