I think it shows how much rival clubs thought of Ozil, no one wanted him when his contract was running down, no one made a pre-contract offer or even stated their interest in him. Arsenal royally mugged themselves off by giving him such a huge contract, they probably could have tied him down to a lesser deal financially because the reality is, he wouldn't have gone to a better side than them had he let his contract expire.
That's some uber spin there. It's just facts that ozil has more to be arrogant than Alli and i demonstrated it with a pic. I just thought it was funny that the banter at me all began because your fellow boys did exactly the same thing!.
I wouldn't wanna hump a ship either so I'm with you on that. I've had to watch us under Christian Gross, Gerry Francis, AVB and Tim Sherwood, I think I'll survive the day Harry does decide to move on for a likely world record fee.
Of course it doesn’t. He’s won the German player of the year award 183 times too but has been the ultimate conman for years. Just strolls through games.
yeah, he's gone proper downhill under Arsene, probably due to attitude than ability. It didn't mean he wasn't class before that, he was running the show at Real before and his first few seasons was great at Arsenal. Fell by the wayside since then but who hasn't under Arsene.
No, that's not what I mean. Racist abuse isn't acceptable and it shouldn't be accepted or put up with. He's trying to conflate that with being criticised for posing publicly with a dictator, though. He didn't feel that he was supported by the German FA over it and I don't think that he should've been. Ozil's statement says that he wants people to ignore the meeting and separate the office from the individual. Why should they?
You've known me long enough now to know I spin everything, Bob lol. But you stick to your bragging of Arsenal player, Mesut Ozil
I feel the same way mate, seen a lot worse times than these. I wouldn't want to hump a ship either, bloody painful I'd imagine. Bloody typos.
They should but not in this century. I totally understand the bad reaction its garnered and for some of the crowd to boo. However, i think he's saying behind closed doors and in particular one of the blokes in the DFB has made him the scapegoat (from the sounds of it) and gone too far with his criticism. Unfortunately, as with most he said she said stuff, only ozil will and everyone close to the situation will know the truth
So Ozil one of the best midfielders of his generation is worse than Alli who had a few good games 2 seasons ago? OK then
I think Wenger did that as a parting “gift” to handicap Dick Emery and to make sure he doesn’t win anything in his first couple of seasons.
A convenient excuse. How many years has he played for Germany, and only now he brings up this supposed racism?
