He had been playing sh*t for years," he told  Sport Bild .  "He last won a tackle before the 2014 World Cup. And now he and his sh*tty performance hide beyond this picture."Whenever [Bayern] played against Arsenal, we played over him because we knew that was their weak point. "His 35 million follower boys - that don't exist in real world - are convinced he has played sublimely when he completes a cross pass."The development in our country is a catastrophe. You have to go back to what it is: sport. And from a sporting point of view, Ozil has no place in the national team for years." Ozil made his Germany debut under Low in February 2009 and went on to win 92 caps, scoring 23 goals.</blockquote>
