Why do people put so much issue into not singing the anthem? Loads of Belgian players dont sing it either, not an issue here.


For belgium itz ez mode : They dunno whether to sing in french, dutch or germun. Or that flemish shite

If you decide to play for a country then you should do it with your heart and be focused 100% at this country. Not like Mesut Özil, not singing it, feeling more turkish than German. He obviously picked Germany only to become more famous.

Imo if he would play for Turkey noone would care about him

Might be, but i consider Mesut Özil as a person who doesnt identify himself a lot with Germany, he refuses to sign the anthem and his german is also not very very good

But it might be also a lack of intelligence

agreed

Not singing anthem doesnt mean you dont give your 100%. What you do on the pitch is what matthers

For example: De Bruyne doesnt sing the anthem for us, but he gives everything and he is our best performing player next to Courtois.

I dont have exact information about Belgium but it might be that B4al is right what he is saying

The national anthem is in one language.

in general i agree
what bothers many people is the fact, that most of our players with migration background do not sing the anthem while the others all do it
özil looks like he has a bad taste in his mouth while our anthem plays xd

and that leaves an impression of a "divided" team if you catch my meaning

i'm wondering, who are those people that are bothered by players not singing the anthem? in the 70s, for example, no one did. beckenbauer, müller, maier, overath, breitner, vogts... none of them did.

boateng and khedira sing it sometimes, özil never does but he's said time and time again that he's proud to represent germany so what's the problem? i really don't think it's a big deal at all to be honest and whoever thinks the team is "divided" just because a couple of players don't always sing the anthem needs to get their head checked - just look at those guys interacting with each other. ridiculous...
