What happened in Turkish football today? 10/09/2021



 Besiktas focusses into showing quality game against Yeni Malatyaspor.

Besiktas will be resuming Turkish Super League attempt to defence its title with Yeni Malatyaspor during 4th week game as it would be aiming also to get high motivation prior to Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund.

It needs to be mentioned that both Turkish media and supporters are being excited regarding this game despite of opponent being moderate level, as it highly expected that Miralem Pjanic and Alex Teixeira will be at starting 11, 2 players which expect to provide strong quality to the side and also see how would new Besiktas perform as there is high expectations for new signings both domestic and European games. Yeni Malatyaspor without doubt will have tough game against them as Besiktas would be focussing into providing strong and confident performance and it is specifically difficult to play against them without doubt.

Therefore, Besiktas are expected to be highly motivated for this game and would be seeking to win with high quality performance.

TFF has sacked Senol Gunes.

TFF has terminated contract with its head coach Senol Gunes as side did provide very poor performance since Euro 2020 which been got into lowest point against Holland which it lose with 6:1 scoreline.

This blog, which would be noted from our regular visitors, did mention on previous day entry that Senol Gunes days are numbered and awaited announcement from TFF did come following previous day meeting with coach on day before where it is reported that Gunes did state that he would be considering resigning from post if TFF sees this to be action to be made. It would be unfair to state whole reign of Gunes been unsuccessful as he was one who brought side to Euro 2020 but he has been in poor form following Covid19 pandemic without getting any signifcant result apart of Holland and Norway hence needed to be moving as he did lose form and control of the side without doubt.

Therefore, Senol Gunes has been in decline and hence decision to sack him has been only option left for TFF without doubt.

TFF close to appoint as Turkey's new coach.

As TFF has ended contract with Senol Gunes, there is currently started negotiations with Okan Buruk with reports coming that both sides are close at making deal.

Without doubt Okan Buruk has been seen one of the most promising coach in Turkey right now and did bring 1st title in history of Basaksehirspor, club without supporters and by many been seen to be sacked from that club in unfair manner despite of poor results on following season. Hence, it should not be surprising that he is being currently main candidate for this role even through it is known that TFF does have some other options but as been noted it does look like he is being number one option right now.

If TFF would be able to make with Okan Buruk it would be very effective appointment taking account his performances in previous clubs and could take Turkey to World Cup 2022 ticket.
