You do realise that that tweet is actually meant to rip Özil?

Fair play to Özil.

Are we really still trying to kid ourselves into believing it was Emery who wrecked Özil? Jesus Christ how many managers did he have to underperform for before and after Emery for this to be recognised as pure adulterated horse ****?
We’re not kidding ourselves about nothing we’re talking about facts

Watch it lad, you’re treading a fine line between facts and hating on Özil. You’ll get rode up on in a blink!The guy let him off the hook as if you read up on the scheme the amount the players are actually donating is $5K each.
Comparing Mr. Ozils salary like for like it’s the equivalent of someone earning £50K per annum donating £11.
Pep Guardiola has donated €1 million in the fight against Coronavirus. Let’s see which gets more headlines.
Come on man ffs. It’s no embarrassment or even a climb down to take a step back and see in hindsight that Emery merely handled him differently. His effort to get a tune out of him were in vain but then so were everybody else’s. The player for whatever reason was in decline. For me, it’s 70% mental and 30% physical. It happens.We’re not kidding ourselves about nothing we’re talking about facts
New coach, different tactics/philosophy, different results. The only mistake is appointing Emery or renewing the contract depending on who you like more.Come on man ffs.

Both were mistakes. Fwiw, I believe Özil probably had to be given another contract at the time because of the position were in and the muggy little football fan inside me saw the form he was in and said ‘Fvck it’... The timing couldn’t have been better for Özil and his people. They took advantage and the rest is history.New coach, different tactics/philosophy, different results.

According to **** Law, he signed for what they had offered him a year prior to when he actually signed. Sanchez and his form had little to do with the size of the contract if that’s the case.Both were mistakes.

**** Law is not to be believed imo, because it seems to me like he just wanted to give the impression he and the club weren’t piss weak victims of the circumstances and were truly bent over. I don’t believe for a second that Özil was offered 350K a week a year earlier. I just think that interview was his weird way of justifying it after it subsequently proved to be a massive waste of resources.According to **** Law, he signed for what they had offered him a year prior to when he actually signed.

Gab makes a very logical argument. what the club has done is wrong on a number of levels

Özil actually hit some good form in late 2017/early 2018 before he signed his deal, the club were in a no win situation with those two in January...the club couldn't not give him what he wanted, fans were just baying for blood and after losing Sanchez they would have went crazy on the board losing an inform Özil...think if I was on the board at the time, I would also have wanted to give Mes the deal, just something we had to do really...Özil won't be here much longer anyway.
Getting Mikh on high wages in the Sanchez swap was the needless move, thanks Sven!

1. It's unfair to have representative talk to the players about such a cut - why not discuss it one on one? Certain players, especially the younger ones will be put on the spot and essentially strong-armed
2. A blanket 12.5% cut is a shot in the dark at best, and is tantamount to pissing in the wind. What's to say that that amount will suffice the losses the club envisage. Alternatively, the club should have discussed a deferral with an agreement to share the losses at a percentage, at any given threshold.
Overall, more and more, the club is looking far removed from the picture of class it used to be known for in the past 20 years or so - ON and OFF the pitch
Serious question, so what if the fans were "baying for blood"? Are you going to stop supporting the club if we lose Sanchez and Özil at the same time? When you fall down, you pick yourself up and carry on. Not roll on the floor because you are afraid of falling down again.
It was pure ridiculous for the club to give a damn about what the fans want in the first place.
Fair play to Özil.
But the guy just donated a fraction of his daily income to the Sierra Leoneans, it's not like it's earth shattering stuff.
Why doesn’t Kroenke donate a fraction of his wealth then?
