What happened in Turkish football today? 26.04.2016


Games this week will start 2 minute late to show some sympathy to the referees.

Club's Union CEO Goksel Gumusdag has stated that all of the games during Super League 31st week will start 2 minutes late as the chance for everyone to think about situation Turkish football is and how are referees treated during the games.

The catalyst of this action is surely has been led by the beating up of the assistant referee Volkan Bayarslan during Super League 30th week game between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce. The following action has recieved high number of support from almost every club at the Turkish league. The way media is been treating referees also plays an important role for this decision and  by discussing their mistakes for most of the time at their 3-4 hours programmes raises hatred towards referees by general supporters. It is would be foolish to provide defence to the 17-year old Trabzonspor "fan" for this action, but surely high discussion of this at TV affects their psychology. Blame towards referees should be reduced and in more active way clubs should think how to improve their game rather than blaming someone else.

This blog defends this action and even through it is clear that referee needs to be careful at making decisions and dont take sides, their also humans and as everyone else make mistakes. Its just need to be remembered that.

Trabzonspor plans to sell 6 players at this summer.

As all of the focus has been given to the actions which happened at Trabzonspor game against Fenerbahce, the team meanwhile has taken away from squad 6 players which it plans to sell this summer. Club administrators meanwhile did warn players publicly and likely more directly behind scenes before Fenerbahce game and to some extend this decision is not surprising but is sudden.

Prior to Fenerbahce game, Trabzonspor administrators has stated that this game will be last chance for players to prove themselves regarding of staying at the club for next season. After Fenerbahce game with their performance and actions at substittute, Ozcan Hurmaci, Cavanda, Erkan Zengin, Fatih Atik, Sefa Yilmaz and Marko Marin were taken out from squad. This action also shows that Trabzonspor is arleady started its project for building new team for next season with first taking away unwanted players and letting those players to start looking for clubs.

Trabzonspor quite rightly expects its players to provide their best performance and failing to do that costed them place at squad and future at the club.

Besiktas winter transfers didnt fulfill expectations.

As was remembered, Besiktas was among most talked teams at the past winter transfer window however with so much effort given to transfers of Denis Boyko and Alexis Delgado the team didnt get maximum from both players and plans to sell or loan them during this summer transfer window.

Even through Alexis Delgado was poor at the game against Akhisar Belediyespor and previous game and with recieving high number minutes at game, Boyko was more unlucky as due Tolga Zengin who he was planned to replaced start playing even better, with fight for the shirt. Problem here also that despite their cant be question of Tolga Zengin being main goalkeeper, Denis Boyko start having trouble being at 18-team squad for games which would provide negative affect to him. To some extend Delgado also might have recieved low number of gameplay and needs time to get used to the league, but his mistake seem to be more simple and does raise questions of his capability especially during this critical weeks at the league.

Both players didnt manage to fulfill their expectation despite to the team. It does look like both players need to prove themselves to be worthy at team in this last 4 weeks, mainly during training sessions with the team.
