Is Real Madrid's Mesut Özil the Best Player on the German Squad?

Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player on the Portugues team
Karim Benzema is probably the best player on the French team
So is Real Madrid's Mesut Özil the best German international? I think it would probably be between him and schweinsteiger. But I'd go with Ozil. Its pretty crazy that few knew him only two years ago and now he's possibly the best player on the most stacked international team outside of Spain. I'm really interested in his development as I think he is probably the most important player that Real Madrid's quest to get over the Barcelona hump. I also have a feeling that he's going to take the next step by having a monster Euro 2012 and he'll finally be talked about with the other superstars of the game.
*update*
Cristiano Ronaldo apparently thinks Ozil is the best German player as well.
"He is currently the best German player."
