Turkish pundit Rıdvan Dilmen was full of praise for Mesut Ozil after Fenerbahce's victory over Fatih Karagümrük.
Former Arsenal star Ozil made his full debut for Fener in the 2-1 win on the road.
Afterwards former Fener and Turkey international Dilman enthused: "I think the next season will be much better because his contract will be 3.5 years. Despite this, I respect his devotion.
"I did not expect Mesut Özil to do so much. It is not easy.
"You play football for the first time after 10 months. A team was not built around Mesut, Mesut came to this team."
