that's precisely Ozils point. He's a hero when he helped them win the world cup, goes through a patchy spell and the fans and dfb throw racist abuse at him.

I’ll stick with Uli Hoeness’ version. I think he knows a bit more about the German football scene than either you or I do.
They threw abuse at him because he hid, didn’t try, and generally played utter ****e.
Everybody has **** games, that’s excusable. Hiding and not even making an effort isn’t!
He’s been doing the same thing at Arsenal for some while too.
Think i'm going with the DFB version who said that they didn't protect Ozil enough from racist slogans

If that was the case they'd have been giving him abuse before that as he's been pony for ages. They give him the abuse because of the erdogan thing. Even Gundogan got abuse for it. Funny how it was only those 2 and no one else unless you're suggesting it's only these 2 players that were hiding
Ozil was definitely hiding. It’s one of his favourite tricks. Does it all the time,
For me, he was booed for not making an effort.
As Hoeness says, he’s been playing **** for years. And now is blaming everybody but himself,
I don't even see where he is blaming everyone for his **** performances? I don't think he's tried to defend his crap performances. In fact he acknowledges he's had **** performances.
What he has done though is said he's retiring because people have been racist and booed him which even the DFB have acknowledged.

The DFB conceded it had not handled the matter well, adding: "It is regrettable that Mesut Ozil felt that he had not been sufficiently protected as a target of racist slogans."
This sounds like unreserved support for his allegations.
Germany's football association (DFB) has "emphatically rejected" allegations of racism from Arsenal's Mesut Ozil but says it could have done more to protect him from abuse.
You have a point there. Too many people get offended on someone else's behalf.

Lenny Henry tells the story of, when in his youth, at a disco in Dudley, he asked a white girl "Will you dance with me?"
When she refused, he asked "Is it because I'm black?"
To which the girl replied, "No, it's because you're an ugly bastard!"
No, it's you that is.
Why don’t we just say that you have your opinion and I have mine.
