Ozil was taken off from his central role in his last appearance against Chelsea and then missed the win over West Ham with illness
After a difficult week during which Ozil was attacked by his former Germany coach Joachim Loew, he is fit to return for tomorrow's visit to Cardiff
But Emery said his No10, who was always indulged by former manager Arsene Wenger, would not always be playing in his favoured position behind the main striker
"I like the possibility to have the player play different positions and then it depends each match for us and for the opposition," said Emery
"Mesut played with me on the right wing and also as No10 and we are going to continue to do that
"In his career he played as a 10 and on the right. When he was playing in Madrid, I remember a lot of matches on the right
His quality is for playing between the lines. "I spoke with him for his best position and he wants that I can use him for two positions
Every player in the squad plays in the position we need. "Our demands are very high, very great, but I want to ask every player every day to give us more – not just Mesut, the team, the squad
We need to push, we need to have ambition, we need to have desire to improve every day
This is my message for the team, for the squad and for every player." Former PSG manager Emery did not deny he had spoken to Ozil earlier this year before the German signed a new contract and the Spaniard believes international retirement will help his domestic form
"It's a respite for him and allows him to continue to enjoy his job because we all need to enjoy our jobs," he said
"We want to help him to stay with us in the best possible way." Emery won the Europa League three times with Sevilla and saw his Arsenal side drawn with Sporting Lisbon, Ukrainian side Vorskla Poltava and Qarabag of Azerbaijan yesterday
Henrikh Mkhitaryan missed Borussia Dortmund's trip to the former Soviet republic in 2015 because of an ongoing conflict over the Nagorno-Karabakh region between Armenia and Azerbaijan
As Arsenal arrive in Wales, Neil Warnock, the Cardiff manager, has promised he will not park the bus despite facing a daunting fixture list
After Arsenal, Cardiff face Chelsea and Manchester City in their next two games and Warnock, who has worked miracles to get them promoted, is determined to enjoy the ride
The Bluebirds have yet to score in their first three games back in the Premier League but it is not for the want of trying and Warnock says they will not be intimidated and just try to shut up shop
Warnock, who has led his side to two draws so far, said: "I want to do the best we can to give them a game in the other half as well as our own half
We'd get beat anyhow if we just sat back, so we want to give the fans something to cheer
"We've got Chelsea after this, then Man City, there's going to be times when we'll be stuck in our own half without trying to be
"Every game we've been in, we could have won. Even Bournemouth, we lost 2-0 but had a great chance to equalise on the hour and we had chances against Huddersfield and Newcastle
"We've just got to enjoy it. We knew it was going to be hard. We are a bit limited but we'll work with what we've got
"I'm not going to cry about that, we'll do the best we can with what we've got. The fans are behind us and have been superb
