Polis haftasının son gününe giriş yaparken ben de Türk Polis Teşkilatı'nın 177. yılını kutlamak isterim. Ülkemizdeki asayişi sağlama konusunda en büyük rollerden birisi de tabi ki polislerimize düşüyor. Canlarını ortaya koyarak bile güvenliği sağlamaya çalışan polislerimize ne kadar teşekkür etsem azdır. Tabi evet, mesleğinin yüz karası olanlar da var elbette. Ama bu her meslekte görülen bir durum olduğu için kesinlikle herkese laf atıp kestirip atmamak lazım. İşini layığıyla yapan tüm polislerimize canı gönülden minnetlerimi sunarım. 

Inter and Juventus completed the day in a successful way. Inter didn't have any problem on defeating Verona first of all. It was a decent 2-0 win for them. But Juventus weren't that comfortable that's for certain. In fact they had a superb performance during the whole game but they still had a big difficulty in winning the game by 2-1 here. Cagliari were nearly getting an undeserved one point. But Juventus still found a formula to score the winning goal while there were fifteen minutes left to the end.

A poor day for Manchester United. And I wonder how much dissatisfied Ronaldo was after losing to Everton like this. They can't even defeat one of the poorest teams of the season now. Then, what team will they manage to beat in the rest of the season? They are even under the threat of staying out of all of the European tournaments next season. We see them at the seventh place and they somehow need to find a way out immediately. Or it will be too bad for them to finish the season like that. As long as they are not in the Champions League, it is still going to be a failure.

I didn't get wrong about Real Madrid. And they really had a very easy win against Getafe indeed. Getafe should see themselves lucky for not losing by a bigger goal difference than this. A 2-0 win is still acceptable for Real Madrid of course. And I admired their performance here also. It is just a big joy for me to watch Real Madrid in the La Liga and the Champions League both this season. And I can't even imagine what they would do in case they sign Mbappe for example. And he might not be their only transfer too.

Real Madrid have really started to become one of the strongest candidates of the Champions League title now. Because they eliminated PSG by a great work first. And now, they are very close to eliminating the last champion team of the tournament, Chelsea. And their next opponent in the semi finals is going to be Manchester City or Atletico Madrid. Most probably, it would be Manchester City. But whichever of them make it there, I'm still going to favour Real Madrid as I've been very impressed by their effort.

I wonder what West Ham will do in the rematch of their matchup against Lyon. Because they got a really unfortunate red card in the first leg. They still got 1-0 ahead but were only able to make do with a 1-1 draw at the end of the game. But even in this kind of a situation, they did a good job I think. Maybe Lyon are going to have a stadium advantage next time. But I still believe in West Ham to eliminate them from the Europa League. I still expect them to be Barcelona's opponent in the semi finals. I know Barcelona's job is not guaranteed either but I believe in them too.

I'm not sure about Messi either. Messi was already eager to play football for Barcelona more. But the team couldn't meet his demands by a big gap and he didn't want to have that much pay cut. But I think that Messi will think of leaving the team this summer really seriously. Maybe his next station won't be Barcelona again. But the second best fitting team for him are obviously Manchester City. I really would like to see him there as Manchester City have no problem with money too. But I don't know if Manchester City would have such intention.

Ertelendi herhalde bu karar diye biliyorum. Ama ister ertelensin ister ertelenmesin yine de bu zamdan kaçış olmayacak. Hatta zam oranı daha da artar mı diye düşünmeye başladım açıkçası. Çünkü her şey beklenir Türk Telekom gibi bir firmadan. Mesela ilk bi bakın TÜİK'in açıkladığı enflasyon oranına. Sonra da Türk Telekom'un zam oranına bakın.    Türk Telekom zaten çok problemli bir firma olduğu için çok ağır eleştiriliyordu. Şimdi iyice müşteri kaybederler. Duyduğum kadarıyla yönetimi yine bizimkilere geçmiş ama bir şey değişir mi bilmem.

Barcelona Avrupa Ligi'ne hala La Liga kadar önem vermiyor. Aldığı sonuçlar ve oynadıkları futbol bunu açık açık gösteriyor kısacası. Frankfurt karşısında ilk yarıda çok kötülerdi. İkinci yarının başında da cezasını çekerek golü yediler haliyle. Tabi Barcelona istediği zaman golü bulabilen bir takım haline geldiği için tam da o şekilde attılar. Güzel paslaşmalarla ceza sahası içinden düzgün bir vuruşla geldi gol. 78. dakikada Frankfurt şok bir kırmızı kart görünce Barcelona iyice avantajlı duruma geçse de galibiyet golü gelmedi. Camp Nou'daki maçta bence büyük bir sürpriz olmaz.

There is only one game tomorrrow and that is Newcastle - Wolves. Newcastle are going to be my favourite team for this game to tell the truth. And bookmakers are favouring them as well but their odd is still like 2.25. This is going to be a really difficult game for both sides undoubtedly. But Newcastle can still benefit from their home stadium advantage in this one. However their last three games ended by losses. They really need to have a victory desperately now. And there is a feeling for me like Newcastle will achieve a win.

I was hoping to see Barcelona winning against Frankfurt but they shocked me by having a big difficulty and drawing with their opponent. They couldn't defeat Frankfurt even after Frankfurt got a red card while there was still quite a good time left for the final whistle. Barcelona are still not playing like the way they play in the La Liga. I think that this shows how much they care about this tournament. But I still wait for them to defeat Frankfurt in their home game in the second leg and reach the semi final round.

Barcelona must be wondering whether Real Madrid would lose any points against Getafe this week. Because Real Madrid are competing in the Champions League at the same time and they are going to have their rematch against Chelsea in only a week. Maybe they will rotate the squad a lot or their mind will be on the rematch mostly. These things would give a chance to Getafe to surprise them. But it still seems too hard to me that Real Madrid would lose points in this game. Barcelona should just focus on winning their remaining games.

Bu savaşın bir an önce bitmesi için gerçekten öncülük eden herkes büyük bir iş yapmış olacak. Tabi bu toplantının sonucunda bir şeyler değişti mi, değişecek mi orası şüpheli. Ama en azından ortada bir çabanın olması bile bir şeydir. Bu noktada birleştirici olmak gerekiyor ama Rusya lideri Putin'in ne kadar umrunda olur onu bilemiyorum. Zaten sırf kendi çıkarları için bu savaşı başlattı ve büyük yıkımlara sebebiyet verdi. Artık bu savaşın bir şekilde durması lazım. 21. yüzyılda hala aptalca bir sebeple savaş gibi barbarlıklar görmemeliyiz.

Ekonomik durumun kötü olmasına güzel bir vurgu yapan başarılı bir reklam olarak değerlendiriyorum ben bunu. Eleştiri her zaman çok güzel ve önemli bir güçtür. Bu gücü iyi kullanmanız her zaman faydalıdır. Baydöner de bunu yapmış bu noktada. Tabi ne kadar ses getirir bilmiyorum ama sosyal medyada baya etkileşim almaya başlamıştı. Bence bu gibi başka firmaların da korkmadan sadece eleştiri amaçlı olarak böyle reklamlar vs. yapması lazım. Ülkemizde insanlar haklarını savunmayı bilmiyor genel olarak o yüzden daha da sıkıntı oluyor durum.

Real Madrid are very deadly at scoring goals especially thanks to Karim Benzema now. He is like a gift to Real Madrid in this season. He has been a goal machine so far and this wouldn't change until the end of the season I believe. He made another hat-trick today and it was unbelievably awesome. Tuchel must be really jealous of Benzema right now.    After they got this huge win by a 3-1 result, I started to think that Real Madrid would finish the incomplete job in Santiago Bernabeu. And I wouldn't be wrong I guess.

Real Madrid would absolutely think of a Harry Kane option too. I agree on it one hundred percent. Their priorities for a centre-forward would be Haaland and Mbappe first. If they can't sign any of them, they can be in a dilemma between Lewandowski and Kane then I think. They both are great and very experienced strikers. I have zero doubt that they would get accustomed to Real Madrid's game plan quickly. But Kane might cost them much higher than Lewandowski as his market value is 100m euros while Lewandowski's is 50m euros.

It is a poor night for Everton as a result. I was hopeful about them to win tonight but they failed hard by letting Burnley making a comeback like Everton themselves did in the first half. Everton are a hopeless case as far as I can see now. They are even losing against Burnley too so I have started thinking seriously about their chance to relegate at the end of the season. I still can't figure out how they are playing this bad with a lineup like this one. It is a completely horrible season they have had.

Bu başlığın forumda yer aldığı bile aklımda çıkmış şimdi yeni farkettim.    Benim Prime Video üzerinden izlediklerim arasından en çok hoşuma gidenler şimdilik The Boys, Invincible, The Man in the High Castle ve Upload dizileri diyebilirim. The Boys'un klasik süper kahraman film ya da dizilerinden farklı olması beni içine çekmişti. Invincible da aynı kafada harika bir çizgi roman uyarlaması ama o bir animasyon dizisi. The Man in the High Castle'ın da finalini hiç beğenmememe rağmen genel olarak çok severek izlediğim bir dizi. Upload da geleceğe bir gönderme yapan güzel bir komedi dizisi.

Ya zaten en başta ülkemizdeki işçilerin çalıştırılma sürelerini ele alsak bile durumun ne kadar sıkıntıda olduğunu rahatça görebiliriz. 12 saat ve üzeri sürelerle mesai yapan işçiler her yönden sıkıntı çekiyor. Hem anormal saatler boyu çalıştırılmaya zorlandıkları için hayatları işten ibaret oluyor ve bomboş yaşamış oluyorlar. Hem de bu kadar saatin karşılığının yanından bile geçmeyecek meblağda paralar kazanıyorlar. Bu dengesizlik düzelmediği sürece işçi hakları açısından kötü bir seviyede kalacağımız garanti.

Everyone is going to be focused on the huge game: Manchester City - Liverpool. This is one of the greatest title rivalries in the Premier League in the recent years. And it looks like it will last until even the last week of the season. But the result of this game is going to be the most important thing for this rivalry. The winner takes it all. I'm saying this considering the winner wouldn't lose any points after that. But there is no guarantee for that either. I'm not able to trust any of them to win here so it is better to just watch a wonderful game here.
