What happened in Turkish football today? 24/03/2019


Turkey needs to provide focussing game to get comfortable win against Moldova.

Turkish National Team has shown good start of the Euro 2020 qualifiers with a win against Andorra, and would now aim to continue this positive performance against Moldova at Eskisehir where it would be coming out as strong favourite.

Even through quality of game against Andorra could be argued, it would be seen that Turkey did get new focus and confidence with an appointment of Senol Gunes which could be seen from players reaction. As it is know, Turkey are known to get surprising and unexpected results against opponents like Moldova but with playing at home and also gaining right set of focus it is expected to provide good performance. It is just important for Turkey to be aware that Moldova are weakest link at the group and even draw could provide lots of negative impact for rest of the group stage games so it should be aimed and focussed to get a good result with providing strong attacking game which could come with strong support from supporters at home ground.

The main keys of games during this games is to play its own game and provide focus and respect to opponents all time if it doesnt want to get surprising outcome at the end.

Galatasaray members didnt approve Mustafa Cengiz CEO performance.

In pretty surprising matter, Galatasaray members during voting of acceptance of club CEO Mustafa Cengiz performance as CEO for 2nd half of 2018 wasnt approved by them which means that club would go into CEO election without Cengiz being candidate due of rules of club.

According to guidelines, current administration needs to call for CEO election within a month but it can happen as late as after season but it is expected and rumoured that Cengiz would go into court for this decision, as they are been very surprised for this outcome and dont think that their would work has been treated in fair way. Meanwhile, there is strong arguments stating that his rule wasnt approved by main Galatasaray high school educated members as Cengiz didnt been graduated from there. But this rumour is also questionable as it is known that high amount of those educated has voted for him during CEO election last year. It needs to be reminded that issues such as with UEFA due of FFP, transfer politics, issues during Fenerbahce game and its outcome wasnt perfectly managed by Galatasaray and this without doubt could played an important role for some members losing trust with Mustafa Cengiz.

During 1 month, Galatasaray administration would need to announce new CEO election date and it would be important how current administration would act in this process including if it would be going to court.

Reaction of Fatih Terim after Mustafa Cengiz incident is among big questions at club.

With there being high amount of talks in recent period about Galatasaray head coach Fatih Terim having set an eye for club CEO position in near future, with CEO election coming up in near future has led for talks that Terim would run for this position.

Taking account that Mustafa Cengiz administration has been one which made deal with Fatih Terim for head coach position, there would be talks about his future at the team as his contract would be ending at the end of the season. Current administration did make deal for 5-year extension but its not been signed officially and hence could not be taking account with current atmosphere. Whoever would come us as new CEO would certainly likely to work with Fatih Terim as his legend of club but if he would run for that position himself than quite naturally he would resign from his position. Even through Terim didnt state any official statements that he wants CEO position and quite opposite has declined it, it would be still be given high attention regarding his reactions and actions in this period.

Fatih Terim future or more presicely his role at the future of club is related how he would react to this events at club but our view that he would stay as head coach at least for next season.
