What happened in Turkish football today? 28/05/2018


Turkey starts its friendly period game with win against Iran.

Turkish National Team has started its international friendly game period prior to World Cup which it would not attend with a win against Iranian National Team with two goals scored by Cenk Tosun and has won game with 2:1 scoreline.

Turkish National Team has been observed to be providing an attacking game in start of the both games and did come for a focus to win game despite of it being friendly game. Head coach Mircea Lucescu has stated prior to game that he is willing to create team which would be hating to lose game and this aspect has been observant from today's game. Only problem is that in some times it did lose this tempo mainly due of tiredness which could come from long and intense season and also lacking of concentration and focus as it wont get to major tournament this summer. Unfortunately, this incapability has allowed Iran to create high number of attacks and hence has shown some lack of defensive game of the side. Serdar Kirintili who was playing as goalkeeper has also shown great performance with providing some crucial saves including ones which he created himself from needless mistakes however. It is still important for Turkish National Team to show an attacking game for 90 minutes which it would be able to improve with friendlies against Tunisia and Russia. Cenk Tosun meanwhile has shown his leading role at the team with two great goals and taking leadership role at today's game.

Iranian National Team has shown some good performance with showing good organised game with creating some chances even through when it has been played until pressure as Turkey has shown shows that Iran has some trouble. It has some good football knowledge and way of game but it does look it would have trouble times against strong sides at World Cup 2018 as expected.

Turkish National Team did start its friendly period with good performance showing some positive aspects and also areas which need to improve such defence and it would be able to test their performance against Tunisia on 1st June and also 5th June against Russia.

Antalyaspor are made provisional agreement with John Toshack...

As number of clubs are currently looking for new head coaches as we are entering slowly to transfer period, it became clear that Antalyaspor has made provisional agreement with coach John Toshack who had some memorable performance at Besiktas late 1990's.

It is certain that Antalyaspor which was starting previous season with great expectation didnt fulfill them especially due of performances of the coaches at the team which has shown performance way below which would been expected from them. Taking account into financial conditions it needs to be stated that John Toschack does look to be great option and even through for team fighting for league title would be over-expectation, Toshack as coach would be capable to provide mid-table performance and possibly even fight for Europa League spot. Even through he didnt been coaching in Turkey for 20 years now, he is still aware of how things work in Turkey and would have good advantage for this. Again, there are still at negotiations stage but John Toshack could be good choice for team if deal would be made between sides.

As been noted, Antalyaspor would aim to have less stressful season compare to one which would be ending and is looking for coach which can fulfill maximum performance from squad and Toshack is capable to provide that.

...and also has made provissional agreement with Erol Bulut. 

Interestingly their were news that Antalyaspor has also made agreement with Yeni Malatyaspor coach Erol Bulut.

Without doubt Yeni Malatyaspor has been one of the newcomers past season who have shown great performance if taking account it was their 1st season at the league and without doubt Erol Bulut role for this success has been great. Therefore, as Antalyaspor without doubt is club which aims to have more stable season compare to last 2 seasons, would be hoping to get coach which would be able to move team forward. Taking account, to all respect to Yeni Malatyaspor the team doesnt have a squad which can fight for top position but despite of that Erol Bulut has managed to keep side at top 10. Now with Antalyaspor does have better side and aims which are at least for Europa League spot would be able to Erol Bulut as coach to move team forward. In similar as above news about Toshack this are based into media reports but according to those both sides are close to make an agreement.

Erol Bulut would be suitable also in sense that Antalyaspor would be focussing into local players and coaches and appointing Erol Budur would be right track for this aim.

Turkey 2:1 Iran
