TBF a lot of footballers do a hell of a lot of charity but you hear $$$$ all about it in the press ! Good positive news does not sell newspapers !

Always liked Ozil as a player when he played for Germany before he joined Arsenal he always looked distressed with his wide eyes.
But since joining Arsenal he seems more relaxed, just me I expect.
But a great player and obviously a great human being, and a great gesture Ozil.
