Yeah but this is all getting a bit silly now too. Podolski saying everyone should not blame Ozil and get behind him (we are many miles away from Ramsey abuse levels here), Wenger saying today that Ozil hasn't mentally recovered and needs time. If you really have faith in your ability (and he fucking well should because he's got incredible talent and has proven it on the biggest stage of all) then man the fuck up, accept you're going to have to put in a shift at times, and make something happen - because that's what world class players do. Enough with the sympathy. God knows what he'd do if he faced a real tragedy.
