This video explains the "many facets" of Mesut - complete self-possession and control on the pitch, but how off of it (in spite of losing some horrendous hair!) he can be rather shy and reserved. And that when you meet him, you can encounter these traits all in one go.

On the subject of hair, the video shows clips of him from Mesut, 17 and notes "hair-styles change...or perhaps not" - pausing on a clip from the film of Joachim Loew and his amazing, unchanging head of hair!!

It notes how fans have come thousands of miles from Osaka just to see Mesut and that his image is as huge as that of a pop-star and that he is a real "fans' darling".

Asked around minute 2:00 about how much girls (fans) like him - Mesut answers evasively "I'm not sure about that. No comment!" and his expression is priceless!

Then Mehmet Scholl is interviewed (I love him, always!) and is asked how it could be that Mesut has played hundreds of games with no serious injury.

Scholl: It shows he takes care of (or watches) his body...he's often fouled, he's often involved in duels for the ball, so he has to prepare himself and look after himself - his diet, his physical health.

Finally Scholl says "he's tweeted his upper-body and it is very impressive...and yeah. He's unbelievably physically and technically strong and we can observe things, like his pass to Khedira against France, that very few players in the world can do..."

How wonderful that Scholl stalks his Twitter account too! Just like we do :p

I want to begin by thanking our very beloved  [livejournal.com profile] andriy_7 because for this match I do believe he has outdone even himself!



Watch and weep!



I have to say, I considered ending the match spam with that. Why continue?

But anyway...

We must continue the process... )

I guess we all watched the game yesterday, and I think we all can be very pleased with the performance of our beloved boy. I won't delve further into analysis here, because that's [livejournal.com profile] jenny_jenkins's job which she does extraordinarly well. Only let me say this: I'm on to you, my darling Captain and you, too, Müller! You prevented a Samisut hug! I wasn't pleased!

The bottom line is: Everyone loves Mesut. The German press was full of well-deserved praise for him, so I thought I should share two articles with you. They've been translated by me, and suzanne410 (we all know she exists, but lj refuses to acknowledge her user name o_O) looked them over. Thanks a lot, darling!

Give me something to read! )

Bug-eyes scored a penalty today in Germany's absurdly lucky win over Austria. This is not a review of that game (I still have 54 splendid gifs courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] andriy_7 to go over - and 244 stills - and that's for the Faroe Islands!) but a look at the final Liga game and a review of Mesuty news up to the match in Vienna.


Our modern day, crinkly eared hero, against Granada.



Twinkle-toes marched out of the stadium in Hanover in knee-high socks and futuristic trainers...

- From Stern Online, after match against the Faroe Islands...

It's been rave reviews for his performance against the Faroe Islands.

But there has also been badly informed speculation about Mesut in Madrid this week in the German press (who simply copy what the Spanish has to say - and those papers have to fill up their pages somehow!

From the ridiculous to the sublime... )

Major Mesuty News Of The Week!

There have been two friendlies, and there will be another this week (with Mesut's national team, Germany, against Argentina). Here are some lovely pictures and gifs and a couple of Facebook updates, courtesy of our beloved [livejournal.com profile] andriy_7

Mesut first met up with Santos Laguna in spiritual home Las Vegas. Happily, Mourinho didn't allow him off the pitch and saw to it he was in New York to meet AC Milan!




I do want to start the spam (aside from posting Belly!pics to get you shameless hussies interested!) by strongly suggesting that community members check out the posts by [livejournal.com profile] suzanne410 and [livejournal.com profile] skywonder9 just before this one. They were able to witness Mesut playing while in the United States, and their posts have lovely candid shots of our crinkly-eared hero.

TRIBUNNEWS.COM, MADRID – Jose Mourinho, coach of Real Madrid, asked Mesut Ӧzil to score more goals in the next season. According to Mourinho, Ӧzil was too focused on creating chances rather than to score goals himself. During Euro 2012, Jose Mourinho kept his eyes on Real Madrid players who participated.

Oezil: Joachim Low could coach Real Madrid


"The young attacker also stated that criticism targeted at Sami Khedira is unfounded and stressed that he is happy with his current club and is not thinking about leaving"

Papa and sonny keeps on praising each other, papa/sonny mini picspam, and, oh, a pinch of Samisut )

Note: I hope this looks okay. The rich-text posting format is acting weird and LJ warned me that some pictures are failed to be uploaded, also something keeps on messing the texts.

"The Only Thing that Matters Is The Title..." Mesut Özil's Interview With Express.


LINK TO THE ORIGINAL
Translated by jenny_jenkins & sashatwen




Danzig –  He who dances with the ball has his magic back. We spoke with Real Madrid's super-star, Mesut Ozil (23), one day after the tremendous win against Greece.

Mr Özil, for the second time you've been named "Man of the Match." What do you do with the trophy?


It'll take it home to put in my cupboard. I'm proud of it.

Mesut can't understand why Sami Khedira isn't appreciated more... )

A Bromantic Print Interview, Two Videos, Gifs, & Training News





This interview, which was one of two sent to me yesterday by reader Jose and which I have translated from n-tv.de/sport, has been heavily abridged by me as I was translating it so that the interesting things about Sergio Ramos, Karim Benzema, Jose Mourinho, Joachim Loew, Philipp Lahm, Sami Khedira and Cristiano Ronaldo remain. The rest was the usual repetitive fluff or were things that have come up in interviews over the past week.


It was a Mesuty day today... )

Mesut's Post Match Interview


Mesut was interviewed very briefly after the match after receiving his man-of-the-match honours. The sound was dreadful, since the microphone were not fixed until after Jogi Loew began to speak, but his facial expressions are priceless.





His face from 2:40 on is particularly adorable, so watch carefully for that moment! Otherwise an unusually confident performance. Mesut's post-match interviews are in general more confident than his usual ones, exhaustion being an antidote to shyness.

Translation by me, [livejournal.com profile] jenny_jenkins

Mesutyness, shirtlessness... )

Mesut Is Interviewed By Bild Zeitung, Talks Slang & Accidentally Confirms Sami Khedira's Engagement! Also: A Very Strange Loewish Training Exercise!

Four of the Bild Zeitung fan-boys have interviewed our modern-day hero at the team hotel. I've interspersed the interview with training photographs.



Sami: "How could you fall for such an obvious trap?"
Mesut: "We can't all be smart, like you!"

CR7 Jokes Around...




...With Mesut a great deal, with Sami only a little!


Cristiano Ronaldo has been interviewed and has noted the following:

We joke about the Euros and Portugal's match with Germany all the time. I especially do so with Mesut Ozil because he is funnier than Sami, who is more of a serious guy. We (CR7 and Mesut) just say things like, 'Watch out for your legs' or 'I’ll play down your side’ [to the Spaniards]…

Theo Zwanziger's Farewell Lunch



In a previous entry in this community (the transcript of Mesut's press-conference) we learned the surprising news that Theo Zwanziger (the retiring head of the German Footballing Federation) felt particularly close to Mesut, personally. The DFB said goodbye to Zwanziger over coffee and cake.

This post is quite long, actually... )
