TO be Mesut Ozil.
There's no doubt about the Arsenal playmaker's talent - he's supremely gifted on the ball.
While earning £350k a week, he's definitely a high-roller after signing a a three year contract with the Gunners in February 2018
And it's not as if he's suffering off the pitch either.
This year, the former German international got married to his stunning girlfriend, Amine Gulse - with Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan his best man.
And he even managed to raise a smile at one point during the ceremony.
But she was left shaken in July 2019 when muggers armed with knives attacked husband Ozil's car.
Luckily however, Arsenal's Sead Kolasinac leapt from the vehicle and fought them off with his bare hands.
Gulse is a star in her own right, winning Miss Turkey 2014 and later representing her country that same year in the Miss World beauty pageant.
However, she was originally born and raised in Gothenburg, Sweden by a Iraqi Turkmen father and Turkish mother.
The blue eyed brunette then moved to Istanbul, where she began scoring regular model work.

It was in 2014 when she got her big break - competing and winning the Miss Turkey pageant.
Her gorgeous looks weren't enough to persuade Miss World judges to give her a placing in their competition in Las Vegas, but it was enough to make her a star in her own country.
Gulse met Ozil that same year and he was instantly smitten.
Still modelling and shooting a variety of fashion campaigns, the 5'10" stunner has also branched out into acting.
She starred in popular TV Asla Vazgeçmem - a drama about love in which she played the lead female role from 2015.
But, for the moment, their romance is believed to be long-distance, with Gulse dividing her time between Istanbul and London for work commitments.

And with that being a four hour flight away, it can't be easy for these lovebirds.
The two regularly show how much they care about one another - they were spied once going for a romantic bike ride in London.
Ozil, who accused the German FA of treating him with "racism and disrespect", also got the love and support of his missus when he decided to retire from international football.
She posted a selfie of the couple to her 1.7m followers on Instagram with the message: “I am always with you, I am proud of you my love.”

am I the only one finding it strange how most people are making jokes and memes of this instead of being genuinely concerned, it is a horrendous and traumatic incident, huge respect to Kola and thank God everyone is safe!

Bosnian mentality should never be underrated. We fight if it's looking bad. Kola you are a legend.

Omg. Easy to focus on the badass behavior of Kolasinac, but stepping back this terrifying. Probably came a few feet from a career-ending injury or an "Ozil murdered" headline.

Just imagine how hard Kolasinac must be controlling his emotions inside the pitch. You don't want to let the beast out.

Some sickos out there laughing and making jokes about Ozil not stepping out of the car to help, when both of their wives were still in the car, shaken and ducking thinking they were going to die, I'm glad all of them are alright, but it's a no joking matter.

I used to play 5 a side on a team with all Bosnians. They honest to god got in a punch up every single game. One dude, Yaz, used to do press ups right before kickoff? It came as no surprise when they weren’t allowed to come back.

must be fucking terrifying for Özil to have a clearly prepared (going by their complete covering outfits/helmets, despite the weather, etc.) attack aimed at him at right outside his favourite local restaurant less than ten minutes from his home. like how do you feel safe and not get completely paranoid after something like this happens right in the centre of your area of comfort/home?

Such good teamwork should not go unnoticed, amazing to see such defending from Kolasinac, managing to hold off two attackers and not conceding. Brilliant work absolutely brilliant.

You can take Kolasinac out of Gelsenkirchen but you can't take Gelsenkirchen out of Kolasinac.

Wouldnt it be self defense to run them over ? G wagon vs A motor bike. Or was the chasing before the attack?

Of all the people, it is hard to believe anyone mess around with Kolasinac. He seems like a scary guy and not a guy you want to pick a fight to.
