What happened in Turkish football today? 22/12/2017


Fenerbahce would be aiming to end 1st half of season with comfortable win against Konyaspor.

Fenerbahce would be playing its last league game prior to mid-season break against struggling Konyaspor as it would be aiming to carry on its undefeating period and enter to mid-season break at great mood.

With Fenerbahce gaining a great motivation with its recent results including against Karabukspor which it gained without providing its best performance would be aiming for certain among win to get into confident manner and without conceding goal. With taking account how teams are performing lately Fenerbahce would certainly come out as favourite. What makes this game more unique that it would be 1st game against Konyaspor for Aykut Kocaman who did spend pretty successful last 2 seasons with letting them win Turkish Cup and on season before ending league at 3rd place. Hence, it would be emotional for Fenerbahce coach and Konyaspor but this factor could provide an additional focus to Fenerbahce. Meanwhile, Fenerbahce attackers would certainly aim to carry on their top performance which their have shown in recent weeks.

Fenerbahce as stated would be coming out as favourites and would be aiming to show themselves as contenders for league title from start of the game.

Besiktas will have harder game compare to last week but their are still clear favourites.

With Besiktas ending its pressure period which also led stress and lack of concentration at the Champions League until February, it was able to provide full concentration to last game of 1st half of season of Sivasspor.

Even through Besiktas carries this season in pretty unstable manner it is still at the title race with 3 points behind of league leaders Basaksehirspor, and has shown during last week against Osmanlispor that when their provide full focus to the game their are becoming pretty unstoppable side. Stating this, it needs to be remembered that Sivasspor are in better condition than Osmanlispor and would be able to provide some difficult time to Besiktas. Without doubt, Besiktas are closer to win game tomorrow in clear manner but it will need to be focus as Sivasspor are capable to provide some difficult time to Besiktas especially with having organising defensive game. The weather might be playing some effect, also as those days are being among coldest period across Turkey and with Sivasspor among coldest at the region it could provide some difficulty to them.

Besiktas still as mentioned would be able to come out as favourites despite of cold weather as long as their would provide full concentration and there is expectation their would and Sivasspor will also have tough game waiting for them for sure.

Emperor is back to his home for 4th time.

Even through Turkish Super League are entering to the last week of 1st half of season and transfer rumour are coming out, during today whole media has been focussing into Fatih Terim officially becoming Galatasaray head coach for 4th time.

It needs to be stated and as been mentioned in our blog yesterday Fatih Terim has been brought by media and right now all focus has been focussed to him and Galatasaray fans also start seeing themselves as champions. But it needs to be remembered that Fatih Terim didnt provide good job at Turkish National Team and including this blog their were talks if Terim golden days are over. To find answer to this question would be given by himself during 1.5 year period,unless he will sacked before that, at Galatasaray as he has chance to prove himself once again. Meanwhile, the contract has been stated as salary of 1905 TL for this season each month, referring to founded year of club and next year he would recieve 3,000,000 euro. Meanwhile, with this appointment Galatasaray CEO Dursun Ozbek has certainly secured his glory at an early election set on 13-20th January.

Emperor is back to his home but time would show if he is strong as before to lead one of the leading clubs in Turkey into its old glory days and gain back 2000 spirit at the team once again.
