Mesut Ozil slams Piers Morgan for Paul Pogba comparison and Arsenal fans claim

Mesut Ozil has hit back at Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan as their war of words continues on Twitter.

Ozil was left out of Arsenal’s 25-man Premier League squad for the first half of the 2020/21 season, but the Germany playmaker has remained very vocal on social media in support of his teammates.

There have been many calls to ‘#FreeOzil’ on social media, and the German showed his thanks for those supporting him on Twitter on Monday. He captioned a photo of him in front of fans at the Emirates: “The feeling of having fans behind you… #grateful #bestfans #hardtimes.”

However, Morgan, who’s the outspoken Gooner,  has long criticised Ozil and was not buying into the sentiment.

He replied to Ozil’s tweet: “Real Arsenal fans aren’t behind you. You’re our Paul Pogba – massively overpaid, massively under-performing & shockingly overinflated sense of your own importance. #truth.”

And then, Ozil hit back: “Piers, buddy, are you still bitter from the other day? It seems like you’re not a big fan of World Champions.

“I wish you would see as good as you hear things.”
