No, he obviously didn't get a reply. It's a completely fair question to ask what the source was for the award. And it turns out he's absolutely right. Stop being a tit.

It's a fact that the award was given in January, before the drop in Ozil's performances for us and before the world cup. It was before he got booed off by the voters themselves - the German fans. If the vote was done now he would have absolutely no chance of winning it over the likes of Muller and Lahm. He'd be lucky to get in the top five. So it's kinda irrelevant to use that award to defend his performances in the world cup.

And I'm a sheep? Really? I was one of the few on who were defending Ozil when he was getting slaughtered by the majority on this board at the back end of last season. I said he was being misused by Wenger by using the wrong players and system to get the best out of him. Now it seems like you've gone the other way and are pretending he's playing great when he's not. Middle ground please.

A fair point and a pretty good assessment. It was right that the source of the poll was asked for so that there could at least be an understanding of the context.

:gp: I don’t all the way agree with the system/players around Ozil argument. We can improve but Ozil will need to grow into his role and accept a higher level of responsibility. There will be more pressure on him compared to what was at Real but I hoping he grows into it. I’ve never agreed with the people that say he’s playing great. The German fans have noticed a difference and I hope next season he comes back firing.

Germany and Arsenal superstar Mesut Ozil is to donate his £350,000 [$600,000] World Cup winnings to the children of Gaza following his country's triumph in the global spectacle.

If Carlsberg did fucking good blokes...

That's superb. That's not only a great cause but also the ultimate way to poke a finger in the eye of the media who have been persecuting him for choosing the wrong team. And some of you will know what I mean by that. Not saying he meant it, but if he did :bow:

Expect some serious shit coming his way now, particularly made up stuff. Particularly from the Daily Jackboot.

I trust all Arsenal fans will stick 100% behind him.

According to the Middle East Monitor, Ozil caused controversy when he declined to shake a Fifa official's hand because of his support for Israel.

Quote:

After reaching the second round of the tournament, Algeria donated their £5.25m prize money to the people of Gaza.

Meanwhile Cameron is busy selling weapons to Nazis.

But still - it's good to know there are still decent and courageous people in the world. And it takes a hell of a lot of courage to go against the grain on this particular issue when you are in the public eye.

The Gaza thing is apparently not true however Ozil did donate his entire World Cup earnings to building projects for under privileged kids in Brazil instead.

Story spreading on Ozil WC winnings not true. @MesutOzil1088's spokesman told @AP that Ozil's donating money to projects in Brazil NOT Gaza

What a terrible person, spending his money helping Brazilian kids instead of English ones. :rolleyes:
