Well done, Mesut Özil. Going in late, two-footed and with his studs showing.

[redgunamo]

Shame it was only on the DFB though, of course, and not John Terry or someone like that, but still. Top flouncing.

[Ash]

And importantly, Unai Emery's name scans in Erzl's song. Welcome home, Mesut. :-)

I think it's stupid, personally. He should have been a tough guy, stuck it out for six months until the thing blew over, and then quit. It only reinforces the notion that he's a whiner. Germans totally within their rights to complain about that dumbsh!t photograph.

[IUFG]

But to use it as some part of the excuse for them having a poor world cup is a leeeetle beeeet bóllocks, no?

Ah....so that's why he stopped playing for Arsenal.

He should take it nonetheless. What is he, a fvcking girl?

It's slightly odd of him to object to him being classified as Turkish when he's forever going on about how Turkish he is.

Can't think where you got that idea from.

I thought he said immigrant rather than Turk. Its a variation on the Andy Murray argument.

Immigrant scmimmigrant. His parents immigrated to Germany, he claims to be German, then waffles on about having 'two hearts, one German, one Turkish'.

Not good enough. It's insulting to the nation that accepted his parents and gave them an opportunity to build a life.

I can't be doing with non-assimilators. If that's a word.

Fine points, but his parents were in fact both born in Germany

Blimey. That sort of makes it worse, tbh.

My favourite bit of the story is the barrister attempting to mitigate and just giving up. :hehe:

Everywhere you look, this country is filled with non assimilates. Some are now three or four generations along the track..

Assimilators.... all sounds frighteningly Borg tbf.

I thought the word most often used was integrate instead of assimilate?

You dont see the Chinese, do you. Millions of take aways but they are never in the boozer, there were none at my school.....

[Burney]

You dont see the Chinese, do you. Millions of take aways but they are never in the boozer, there were none at my school.....

That's because they generally go to decent schools because they invariably drive up the grades.

There were a couple at mine. Both called Lam. Willy and Pete Lam. Not related at all. Great bunch of lads.

Oh, and there was Lawrence Low, too. He was a nice chap. I had sex with his girlfriend, which I still feel a bit bad about.

[Sir C]

We had one in my school, his name was Derek something but he was known universally as Hong Kong Phooey.

We also had a Son of Nippon who kept a pet bee on piece of cotton.

Integrate, assimilate, whatever, they ain't doing it. :shrug:

To be fair, they're only following orders.

I went to a very decent school, I'll have you know! We had one Japanese lad but he left two years and is now a celebrity chef.

No chinese at all. None at my primary school either.

This Derek chap, was he wily? They are generally wily, I find.

The Nip sounds pretty typical of the breed.

[Burney]

:hehe: Apparently, it's the 16th most common name in China.

[Sir C]

He was more posh than wily. He had a double-barrelled name and a cut glass accent. He was Hong Kongish, of course, so not really Chinee.

[Viva Prat Vegas]

We had one in the Infants called Mesusa
She's showing her knickers in the class photo

One in my Secondary School year was a boy called Kim
He had hair like a thatched roof

[Burney]

Oh, yes. I think ours were Honkers, too. Not that I bothered asking. To me at that age, Chinesers all p1ssed in the same pot.

Isn't Kim famously a Korean name, though?

There seems to be. On another note, the Grand Prix was rather enjoyable yesterday. Vettel's popularity in Germany has taken another hit - though he may be thankful for the timing of Mesut's announcement as his **** up is getting less coverage

[Alberto Balsam Rodriguez]

Yes, great fun. :driving: Why don't they like their four-time world champion who is still in a good position to get his fifth? Because he made a leetle mistake in the wet? Tough audience. You have to hand it to the cloggies for their support for Max though. Time to put Zandvoort back on the calendar, perhaps.

His petulance doesn't help but I don't really know why, he has never had the standing of a Schumacher. Even Rosberg was more popular.

Bit disappointing Max didn't do anything stupid - the wet gave him a perfect excuse. Maybe he is learning
