What happened in Turkish football today? 15.08.2017


This new Galatasaray would provide more attacking football this season

Galatasaray has come out as totally different team during openning week of the Super League against Kayserispor compare to the team we have seen from last season and has shown very positive football which becomes clear with 4:1 scoreline.

As been stated from yesterday blog entry, this scoreline has also showed the biggest goal difference of any games during 1st week Super League games of this season and among those factors Galatasaray has been controlling game and going into attacks even when winning. In other words, we have seen team which wants to go forward and find as many goals as it could. The star of the game without doubt has been Bafetembi Gomis who has found 2 goals and also provided 1 assist to Belhanda. However, it needs to be stated that such a good performance by Galatasaray has also been led for poor performance shown by Kayserispor during the game as it didnt manage to provide any organised attacks during whole game. Still, Galatasaray has looked very good and would keep supporters happy at the end of the day.

New transfers has undoubtedly has played very good performance at the game and right now has raised a high motivation mood for rest of the season or at least until national team break for team supporters.

Basaksehirspor has capability to provide surprise result to Sevilla but its tough

Basaksehirspor would be coming to probably its most important game at its short history as it would be meeting with Sevilla during Champions League play-off round where it would be aiming to provide a big surprise with its star players.

Even through it would be hard to state that Basaksehirspor would be able to get good result during 1st leg game and also during overall tie it is clear as it has shown in games against Club Brugge and also during 1st week game against Bursaspor it has become very well organised team with high number of players who are experience with European football. Therefore, Basaksehirspor is expected to provide lots of tough times to its opponent to Spain. Sevilla doesnt have much information about Basaksehirspor, without doubt only reference could be given by Simon Kjaer. Kjaer surely gave information but still this lack of knowledge by Sevilla could be used by Basaksehirspor as surprise factor. Istanbul team needs to believe itself and with organised football aim for good score at its home ground.

Therefore, it is very tough for Basaksehirspor but in same time its possible for them to provide a  big upset to Sevilla which their would not expect at all.

Besiktas has made transfer deal with Domadoj Vida but has financial issues.

Besiktas has restarted its transfer negotiations with Dinamo Kiev player Domagoj Vida and there are reports that Croatian player even has talks with team and has agreed for a transfer and right now talks are between clubs.

According to other reports, Besiktas has made transfer deal agreement with both player and Dinamo Kiev and reason this transfer is not been announced is due of 1,400,000 euro overflow from FFP agreement it has with UEFA. Meanwhile, one of the reasons for Domagoj Vida sudden want to join Istanbul side has been led to Dinamo Kiev been eliminated from Champions League, while Besiktas would be joining directly. As usual, Champions League has played an important role for players during transfer talks and deals this time with a gain towards Besiktas. It is therefore expected that this transfer would be announced by both sides when financial issues would be solved.

Besiktas has had interest with Domagoj Vida for more than year and it does look like the team would finally transfer him after long and ongoing transfer negotiations between sides.,
