Pictures of Mesut in Turkey

Kisses from his uncle: Mesut got lots of love, as always.

Mesut's video-interview upon his arrival has kindly been translated by

monpti and follows below.

R: When did you come here the last time?
M: It was 1-1,5 year ago. I came here to visit my uncles, nephews, and of course my country. I am spending my holiday here.

R: Is there a break time in La liga, I don't know your program, how many days do you have?
M: There is one week holiday. I came here for 2 days. I came here to my village. Just like I said, I am so happy. I'll see my friends, my family.

I'm betting Pipita gave him that wallet...and possibly the ghastly jacket too.

R: Your parents aren't here, are they?
M: No, they will come later.
R: What are you going to do here?
M: Of course, first, I'll visit my grandparent's graves, that's why I'm here. And also there are my friends, my brother.

R: You have been built a mosque there. You don't forget your village, event though you've been abroad for a long time.
M: Of course. My childhood was in here. I came here lots of time when my grandparents were alive. It was mostly summer holidays. And now, my uncles, nephews are here, so I'm so happy for being here.

R: what can you say about Nuri and Hamit? They came Madrid too.
M: I also know them in Germany, we are of course really good friends. Now, they are playing at Madrid with me. so I am very happy to be playing with them.

R: Nuri shot his first goal.
M: Yes, it was yesterday. I became so happy. It was nice.

With the town big-wigs. Mesut towered over everyone on his visit.

R: And about you, there is gossip about your transfer to Liverpool, is there any truth to that?
M: I really don't want to talk about that. I am playing in Madrid.

More important people. Getting Mesut to accept the flowers took some effort :)

R: Is there any problem with you and Mourinho?
M: I am on holiday and I don't want to speak about this now.

With his Aunt (?) and Uncle.

I kinda adore him going there with his family and all that. I think this kind of grounding is what he needs right now. He will come back to Madrid stronger.

I hope so - they are wearing him out though! He's had to visit factories, and the town hall and all the important people!

They really adore him.

They do, but he's earns some fawning adoration.

*sends Sami for holiday cuddles*

From 3:50 onward is my favourite. He's such a good boy.
