Mesut Ozil and Piers Morgan are still feuding. You wonder if they ever get to bury the hatchet.

Despite Mikel Arteta’s side often struggling for creativity, the German was not brought back in from the cold. With six months remaining on his contract, he and the club came to a mutual agreement to terminate.
As you expect, one person who did not give Ozil a positive send-off however, was Piers Morgan. A frequent vocal critic of Ozil, Morgan particularly took joy in his departure from the Emirates.
Giving his own unique goodbye on Twitter, the Good Morning Britain host said (via the Express): “Loved @MesutOzil1088 when he first came to Arsenal. World class player with a sublime natural talent. Now I can’t wait to see the back of the lazy manipulative £350,000-a-week wastrel. You could have been a club legend, Mesut – but you just couldn’t be bothered. Bye.”

The midfielder tweeted a picture of himself with ‘Poop on Piers’ toilet paper, saying he took it from London to Istanbul to ‘remind him of Morgan.’
Check out his tweet to his 25.9 million followers,
Piers, I took this with me from London to Istanbul to remind me of you! 🧻🧻 Although you probably knew that already before … 📲👂🏼👀 #PoopOnPiers @piersmorgan pic.twitter.com/Z0dRzQ5gB0
