What happened in Turkish football today? 28.11


Bursaspor is looking for experienced Turkish coach to lead its team for new glories.

Following termination of contract of Ertuglul Saglam, from Bursaspor head coach position club became looking for its new head coach. Currently names which seem to circulate at the media are Bulent Uygun, Shota Arveladze, Hamza Hamzaoglu and Tayfur Havutcu.  Most interesting aspect is that all names are Turkish coaches.

Bursaspor as the club has always, especially after league title in 2009-10 season, has been aiming for either league title or at top 5 position even through Turkish media did not have this expectations except in beginning of 2010-11 season. Therefore, it should not be surprising for club to aim for established names which their can appoint with its financial possibilities.

For now, the main candidate is been reported to be Bulent Uygun who is very talented head coach and will be capable to improve game at the Bursaspor and possibly bring spirit which was present at team back on 2010.

Galatasaray has new coach advantage but despite that Kasimpasa should not be ruled out.

Tomorrow's game between Galatasaray and Kasimpasa is most awaited game of the week, even more than Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor game on Monday. Main reason of this is that it is first game of newly-appointed head coach Mustafa Denizli.

It is especially difficult to predict this game because at first there is new head coach which always had affected positively to the teams in those situation but secondly club in game play is on mess and there is no way Mustafa Denizli could solve it in 3 days after appointment.

Biggest focus at the game will be given to the performance of Galatasaray in tactical way and how would key  players react to new head coach system. Galatasaray does have "new head coach" advantage but Kasimpasa chances should not be ignored.

Besiktas looks to be favourite but its not easy as it looks.

In fact all of the big 3 teams at the Turkish league, has very tough games this week as Besiktas will be played with surprised package of this season so far: Akhisar Belediyespor. Akhisar currently has same points with Galatasaray, located at 4th position in table.

Besiktas had a great week at Europa League winning Skenderbreu and being close to qualify to round 32 after penultimate week at the tournament , so it come out tomorrow with high motivation. Plus another Besiktas advantage that Skenderbreu didnt really make defence tired, a section which will be crucial at game against Akhisar.

Besiktas is coming as favourite as leader of the Super League and also with successfull and attacking performance but it needs to be careful and agressive because Akhisar will believe that it can win this game regarding of its position so far at the league.
