What happened in Turkish football today? 14/03/2018


Bayern Munich has won game where for most part both sides focus has been low.

Champions League last 16 2nd leg game between Besiktas and Bayern Munich has been turned around as expected as prestige game following 5:0 loss of Besiktas in Munich and has been prepared in this matter even through it needs to be noted that both sides focussed to game at high note in start but lost concentration as game progressed.

In fact, Besiktas didnt manage to start game in good manner as Bayern Munich did show from start of the game that it was aiming to also win this game with organised game and control of the ball. Stating that Besiktas did provide some more organised game taking note that it wasnt coming out to lose game even through an own goal from Gokhan Gonul which has come out from simple position has shown that in some moments it wasnt to game entirely. Besiktas did manage to provide some organised game from middle of 2nd half as Vagner Love has also scored goal and hence has prevented team to end game without scoring to Bayern Munich as it has used an opportunity when the opponents psychologically has lost concentration of the game. In fact, it is hard to note that Besiktas has also mindfully been at the game entirely with some moments its supporters, which are known to be extra force to the team, has moved team forward. But with coming to game with 5:0 deficit and conceded 2 goals as game progressed its normal reaction of Besiktas.

Bayern Munich it needs to be noted has also started game in pretty good form showing that it was aiming for a win tonight but as game progressed and it has found goal it also lost concentration of the game with some fouls and also not providing its top football as it got what it wanted.

Besiktas has lost tie with 8:1 scoreline but it needs to remember that it has ended group stage at 1st place and provided best performance among Turkish clubs in history of the competition. And hence forgettieng Bayern Munich it can be proud from this season Champions League performance.

Newcastle United and Everton are interested to transfer Garry Rodrigues.

With performance which Garry Rodrigues is currently showing at Galatasaray, he has quite naturally has provided an interest from number of the clubs around top European leagues and right now Newcastle United and Everton are new additions to the list.

In fact it has been reported that both team scouts would be visiting Super League 26th week game between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray to check into performance of the Rodrigues which without doubt would be his highest test in Turkey as for other players. With Fatih Terim becoming coach of the team, Garry Rodrigues has been among players who has shown great number of improvement with raising his assists especially towards Bafetembi Gomis and in general showing good attacking game which as expected has moved team forward. Therefore, with clubs like those British sides and also Spanish side to show this interest should be seen as normal reaction. It would be hard to keep him at Galatasaray but it is reported that club aims to provide his transfer fee for summer transfer window no less than 20 million euro possibly reaching to 30 million euro. With FFP decision to be key here, Galatasaray would be forced to keep him as their is no other option to fulfill his space in summer.

Therefore, and taking account that Rodrigues is happy to be at the team he is expected to be staying at the team but as expected time would show as there is no long time until window to be opened.

Manchester United plans to offer  40 million euro for Anderson Talisca. 

Another transfer news which is been actively circulated during today at sports media has been actually coming from Portugal as their are reports that Manchester United is willing to pay as much as 40 million euro for Anderson Talisca to Benfica, main star of Besiktas during his loan period at club this season.

With Talisca showing great performance both at the Super League and Champions League group stage and also been selected at Brasilian National Team for upcoming friendlies, it would make certainly Besiktas administrators to be satisfied but in same time as team their aware that their might lose him as it doesnt have direct affect into negotiations. Besiktas only solution would be to provide 21 million euro transfer option but Besiktas aims to reduce that offer to which Benfica might be reluctant as we see it recieves offers almost double of that. It does look like Besiktas solution to keep Talisca is to raise an offer rather than reduce. When it comes to loaned players all clubs would like them to provide great performance but when making sure their stay at the team also provides them problematic issue such as native team calling them back or selling to better offer.  Anderson Talisca performance is expected to be improving with possible chances of him performing well at friendlies game which could provide some difficulties to Besiktas in negotiations.

Besiktas needs to find some solution for keeping Anderson Talisca but his improvement of performance can make them champions but would led them to lose him in summer.
