Mesut Ozil’s Bizarre Twist on the GOAT Debate: Is It Arda Guler?
The age-old debate about who is the greatest of all time (GOAT) in football has been a hot topic for years. Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have dominated the sport for over a decade, with each of them claiming their own share of accolades, including a staggering 13 Ballon d’Or awards between them. So, when Mesut Ozil, the former Real Madrid and Arsenal star, was asked to weigh in on the debate, fans were expecting a passionate argument for one of these superstars. But, Ozil had other plans.
In a shocking turn of events, Ozil opted to choose… Arda Guler? Yes, you read that right. For the uninitiated, Guler is a 19-year-old Turkish midfielder who plays for Fenerbahce, the same club where Ozil used to play. It seems that Ozil genuinely believes that Guler has the potential to be a future star, and his enthusiasm is infectious.
Of course, this news sent shockwaves through the football world, with many fans left scratching their heads and wondering what Ozil is thinking. After all, Messi and Ronaldo have spent years dominating the sport, setting new standards, and breaking records. But, Ozil isn’t having it. "Arda Guler is the future of Turkish football," he exclaimed, "and I believe he will achieve great things in the game."
So, what’s behind Ozil’s sudden love for Guler? For one, the two players have a proven track record of success together. Prior to joining Real Madrid, Ozil played alongside Guler at Fenerbahce, where they formed a formidable partnership. Ozil’s trust in Guler’s abilities can be seen in his choice to single him out, even if it’s unexpected.
But, it’s not just about Guler’s skills on the pitch. Ozil’s admiration for the young midfielder stems from his dedication, work ethic, and passion for the sport. "Giving passes to a player who almost never misses was a gift," Ozil recalled, reminiscing about his time playing with Guler. It’s clear that Ozil sees himself in Guler – a driven, talented, and hard-working player who will do whatever it takes to succeed.
So, while fans may be divided about Ozil’s unexpected choice, it’s hard to deny the excitement and optimism Guler brings to the table. With his talent, work rate, and determination, Guler has the potential to become a star in his own right. And, who knows, maybe one day, he’ll be joining the likes of Messi and Ronaldo as one of the greatest players in the world.
