Mesut Özil: Time to Move Ön?

[Tosker]

Multiple journalists have said that he trained normally during the week, then called in sick on Friday. Maybe he really is ill. :rofl:

could be he calls in sick when told he is not in the squad, and as that lets both him and Emery off the hook somewhat, it may well be something they have agreed between them, especially if it is true it is the board rather than Emery who wants him out

But that would be lying and, I assume, a breach of his contract?

When Özil leaves:

Ornstein: "Hearing from some quarters in the Arsenal camp that Mesut Özil never actually signed the contract extension in 2018 and so the club was happy to let him train for free until he found a new team."

Will the last ultra shut the door behind them. Cheers.

What Ultras are you talking about? Is Ultra the new word for some1 who just likes him? I just see like 5 Posters complaining about ultras all the time, never quoting one though? You guys are like the ppl complaining about vegans even when no vegan is even around. So is it like defending him makes you an ultra, yes?

 

[kraphtous]

The Özil ultras are like the Ramsey ultras and Xhaka ultras, one or two people, who get lumped with everyone else who just like Özil as a player and disagree with the decision to leave him out of every game in favour of players like Iwobi and Mkhitaryan.

He not with the squad to face bate.

I don't doubt the sudden illness. I often come down with something nasty the night before, to avoid any potentially embarrassing situations the next day in work. All truth aside, even slackers get genuinely ill. Just a shame he was too embarrassed to let his flock know how low he was feeling. So unlike our Mesut.

Let us not play dumb.

At the beginning of the season, I was liking the sound of Ramsey, Mkhitaryan, Özil and Torreira as a midfield four with Xhaxa ghosting around. Emery hasn't got it to work.
Özil is a top player.

So he was clearly as ready as you can get.

Unai Emery Etxegoien/Raul are true scumbags. Not any other way to explain his exclusion.

Xhaka-Torreira with Özil ahead of them was actually working pretty well at the start of the season. Too well for Raul's liking it seems.

Weird how Özil is happy not to play football, most footballers who want to play would have demanded to leave in the last window or make it public knowledge that they want to leave. Özil just seems content to not be picked. Quite odd.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

He knows demanding to leave would upset the squad, he's too well-loved. Doesn't want to hurt his friends.

there has been no hint of how he feels about being dropped - but he sure showed his displeasure at being substituted

Very odd

He's been in the media spotlight for many reasons, he may feel ridiculed.

I was getting a little wound up by some of the comments on here and Twitter then I realized that it's none of my business.

Haters gonna hate, lovers gonna love...Özil will still get paid.

I agree, which is why I'm confused at people getting angry at Emery when Özil's clearly not too upset about the whole situation and is happy to get paid 350k a week.

We need to remember, that he rejected loan to PSG in January. He should have gone there instead of sitting on the bench here and keeping us up to date with his social media post.
