Fenerbahce got confident win against Basaksehirspor

Fenerbahce continues its winning run since start of the season with a confident win against Basaksehirspor at the game where it was coming out as favourite but it ended being much easier than expected as it got 3:0 leadership within 20 minutes.

Fenerbahce has starteg game at high tempo with looking into chances back-to-back and providing pressure to opponent defence which has led them to find 3 highly organised game within 20 minutes. Probably most important one in sense of event has been 1st goal of Djiku who as defender has provided guality shot on attackers level. It also needs to be stated that among all teams which did play in this postponed games has been Fenerbahce which could be described due of this winning run which keeps motivation and confidence towards players regardless how many games are being played. Meanwhile, Sebastian Szymanski who without doubt is being one of the main players in the team so far during this season has also rightfully become player of the game with finding 2 goals and also in general providing strong and confident performance in whole feed.

With Fenerbahce without doubt providing strong performance, it needs to be mentioned that one of the reason fro such outcome has been inactive performance of Basaksehirspor who did look slow and couldnt provide much pressure to Fenerbahce and didnt get hardly into any chances.

Fenerbahce are continuing its winning run and such confident win with good performance would provide even more confidence and motivation for a team in upcoming games for sure.

Besiktas performance got to its new low at game against Adana Demirspor.

Besiktas continues its decline of performance which it has shown in last few weeks this time losing to Adana Demirspor with 4:2 socreline during which time it was even losing with 4:0 scoreline and thats taking account of high number of absences of opponent.

Prior to game, it has been seen that Besiktas has been lucky to play against opponent where lots of players will not be able to play either due of injury or not being legitimate as this game has been postponed and didnt include some new transfers. However, Besiktas didnt show any strong performance with lacking tempo, lack of organising defensive game and in general didnt come to the game. This decline meanwhile has been observed at the team for some weeks as it did lose to Trabzonspor with 3:0 scoreline and has been very lucky to draw against Club Brugge. It needs to be stated that this game against Adana Demirspor wasnt one-off and performance does get worser and worser to which Senol Gunes does need to find solution.

Among top 4 clubs, Besiktas are showing most effective performance and things are getting worser for them in such early stages of the season.

Turkish National Team appoints Vincenzo Montella for 3-years

Turkish National Team has appointed Vincenzo Montella as its new head coach with a contract of 3-years as Italian coach did have very good results with Adana Demirspor and in fact does play an important role at current condition of his old club.

With being head coach of Adana Demirspor for 2-years he did manage to get good results and is familiar with Super League level of performance of the players so hence despite being a foreign coach he is familiar with Turkish football familiarity. It was also important to see that he was going frequently to the games in this league during past week taking look and notes for sure of possible players to be selected in few weeks time for Euro 2024 qualifiers. Prior to Stefan Kuntz resignation, our blog readers would be noticing that this blog did state that issue doesnt seem to be with coaches as similar issue does arise with previous coaches. Sadly, we could experience same fate as poor results would lead for Montella strong criticism from Turkish media.

Still,Montella does seem to be best candidate especially among foreign candidates and has all reasons to get some good results in upcoming period.
