Best Bundesliga-player

Özil has been chosen to be the best Bundesliga-player of the first half of the season 2009-2010. Somebody should add this. My english is not the best, so I can't do it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.89.233.145 (talk) 22:00, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Heritage

he just contributed about Özil's backround, it has not any connection with being Nationalist. Özil is turkish-german player and yes it writes in his double-citizen passport.--Finn Diesel (talk) 01:50, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This topic is already in discussion at WP:FOOTY. Please join the discussion there. --Jaellee (talk) 05:41, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In this particular case, the reference provided is both reliable and detailed, so I think inclusion is okay. I would not be inclined to consider that the default position. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 07:00, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life

The section said

Özil is a Muslim, and is known to recite the Qur'an before games.

That would be quite a feat, as the Qur'an comprises over 6,000 verses (ayat). The reference says

The son of Turkish guest workers, Ozil reads from the Koran before matches.

Maybe he recites while reading. In any case, I've changed the section to reflect the source material. --Thnidu (talk) 20:15, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
