What happened in Turkish football today? 26/03/2022



Turkey is not on same level as Portugal.

Turkish National Team following 3:1 loss to Portugal did provide strong performance during 2nd half but did lose more or less not only due of missing penalty kick from Burak Yilmaz but also due of not providing enough pressure to opponent during 1st half.

It needs to be mentioned quite confidently that Turkey performance during 1st half hasnt been effective and even through argument tends to be that side didnt provide enough will to show top game, which is partly true, it is also clear that Turkey hasnt been able to provide enough pressure from opponent. It was also especially visible that defensively Turkey has been poor and let Portuguese players to fill comfortable in the attack which led them to find two goals. Hence, even through Portugal didnt provide its best performance for 90 minutes with Cristiano Ronaldo being especially and suprisingly ineffective, Turkey couldnt show strong response. Even through Turkey did look slightly better, it needs to be admitted that Turkey let them prior to goal.

Hence, Turkey is not being yet in level of Portugal and it would not be done overnight, but this area which needs  to be worked on by Stefan Kuntz for sure.

Fenerbahce has send message to other players that disrespectful behaviour will not be tolerated via Mesut Ozil.

One of the most discussed issues in this week despite of national team is being getting out of squad of Mesut Ozil and Ozan Tufan as both players didnt provide good disciplinary action towards coach Ismail Kartal.

It should be specifically focussed to Mesut Ozil performance at the side as he didnt provide expected performance in his side in this season either due of injuries or not fitting into tactics which were on mind of Ismail Kartal. His actions when being substituted and also directly criticising Kartal at changing room shows that Fenerbahce would not tolerate such actions regardless of your name and status and hence did send very strong message to other players in the team. It is now reported that player would be sold during summer transfer window possibly to USA.

As been noted, such action from Mesut Ozil is not being tolerated quite rightly by Fenerbahce administration and send message to other players that such actions will not be accepted.

Adana Demirspor has set transfer fee of its player Samet Akaydin as 3 million euro.

It is been reported that Adana Demirspor has requested 3 million euro from Besiktas for its player Samet Akaydin.

It has been known that Besiktas are showing interest with Samet Akaydin and hence did start negotiations with Adana Demirspor, but taking account that club is having very successful season focussing into Conference League spots in the end of the season, it doesnt consider to sell any of its player with below of self-worth. It needs to be mentioned that Samet Akyadin did have very good season and hence did bring some interest from Besiktas and hence would quite naturally demand a price which could lead for side to find replacement for him during transfer window. Hence, setting 3 million euro does sound to be reasonable from Adana Demirspor and it would be interesting to see how Besiktas would respond.

Samet Akaydin is having good season and it would be interesting to see how Besiktas would respond for such conditions from Adana Demirspor as there is likely for other clubs to be showing interest to player in summer.
