Trabzonspor needs to make effective transfers in winter if it wants to have strong alternative squad.
Trabzonspor has had surprisingly tough time against Corum Belediyespor at the Turkish Cup 3rd round game from which it has been almost elimanated from during daytime game in the Corum.
The fact that Trabzonspor has had such difficult time against 3rd league opponent is especially surprising taking account that it has provided an important win against Galatasaray at the Super League 8th week game. However, in other hand one of the reasons for team to recieve such a difficult time against Corum Belediyespor was a reminder that their do have a limited alternative team as the squad during the game has been playing with players who dont recieve enough game time during this season at the Super League. As been mentioned at the yesterday blog, Trabzonspor only way to solve this is to make effective mid-season transfer window and as it is know the club is interested to transfer Borussia Dortmund player Nuri Sahin and Spartak Moscow Serdar Tasci. Those players are surely into the level to make club go ahead and perform if their will join team in January.
It does look like with this current squad Trabzonspor would have unstable season and when starting 11 players would get injured it would have big issues if their dont do right transfers in the winter.
Besiktas could have tough times against motivated Genclerbirligi.
Besiktas would play against one of the toughest opponents of this season, Genclerbirligi at the Super League 9th week with having an advantage of not playing at the Turkish Cup compare to their opponents and hence be ready to the game in better way and mood.
Right now Besiktas is fighting for leading at the Super League with the Basaksehirspor and hence aims to win Ankara side at the game tomorrow and also get high motivation prior to the Champions League game against Napoli next week. Besiktas does have an injury of Caner Erkin which is bad news for them, but as it is known it has good squad enough to find alternatives for him. Genclerbirligi meanwhile has recieved its first loss at the Super League two weeks ago against Galatasaray and has good performance but might again have issues with Besiktas in similar manner as against Galatasaray where it didnt manage to provide much creative game. In addition, team has played Turkish Cup against Pendikspor which it has with 1:0 and even through it didnt play with starting 11 it could have some tiredness from game.
Besiktas as usual does come as favourite to the game but it wont be as simple for them and their need to give extra effort to team which is currently motivated with its performance at the league.
Antalyaspor needs to raise motivation and performance if it wants to have good season.
Antalyaspor has recieved biggest surprise from this year Turkish Cup 3rd round game with losing to amateur regional league team Afyonspor 1923 with 1:0 scoreline without providing much active football which was eye-pleasing to the fans.
This game to some extend does identify the whole season of club which has only gained 3 points from this season and is been seen as the weakest team so far at the Super League. It has lost its performance from last season which even through didnt let them to end at high place at the table still got some eye-catching and positive reviews. The morale of the team seems to be especially low and as usual best solution is to get motivational and get job seriously. Earlier this season Riza Calimbay has been appointed to a team to raise this mood but it could be especially difficult with current situation. Another point is it needs to stop throwing blame to referees as it usually only does damage and reduces time to find their own mistakes from game.
Antalyaspor has squad at which it can provide better perforance but it needs to be motivated by Calimbay to improve performances by the players or it would have very tough season.
