While Bayern Munich have their full concentration on the Bundesliga I don't see any reason for them to lose points in the  remaining a few matches that easy. I wouldn't like to disrespect their opponents of course. But Schalke and Koln would have a serious level of struggle. Schalke try to stay here but there is no way they are defeating this Bayern Munich.

Koln are aimless indeed so there is not much motivation left in the players to stand very still. But Leipzig can definitely be some serious problem to Bayern Munich. Because they are doing pretty well and fighting for top 4. We should be seeing both teams to score again. Leipzig would target one point at least again just as it was the same previously.

Inter must have improved their morale on a large scale after winning against Milan 2-0 in a very important match in the Champions League. In Leao's absence Milan were a mess honestly. They didn't even proper accuracy on their shots. We didn't see Lukaku in the starting eleven but still Inter didn't have much difficulty. They were so dedicated to win which is a big step forward before the second leg.

I wonder what Milan are planning to do. Leao is having a thigh injury but his return situation is doubtful. Hopefully he can catch up with the second leg to make this matchup more interesting. He is really like leading this team. He is a great attacker in many ways. I just wonder what went wrong this much with Milan after getting a really good win over Lazio.

Açıkçası ben İlkay'ın genel performansından hiç memnun kalmadım. Normalde çok daha dikkatli oynayan bir oyuncu olmasına rağmen bu maçta basit hatalar sergiledi. De Bruyne'nin golü bence Vinicius'unkinden bir tık daha güzeldi. Tam kendine yakışır tarzda bir şut ile Courtois'i avlamayı başardı. Vinicius da Benzema'nın etkisinin fazla olmadığı maçlarda bile ekstra sorumluluk alıp çok iyi işler çıkarmaya başladı. Yalnız bu 1-1 skor yine Manchester City'nin işine gelir. Çünkü bence Real Madrid'e Etihad'dan çıkış yok.

Saudi Arabia teams have like an unlimited amount of money really and they want to build a squad full of great European players. After signing a legend like Ronaldo they are aiming the same by signing another legend like Messi. But as I said before Messi doesn't seem to have any intention to leave Europe for now. Because he is aiming to reunite with his old team Barcelona again.

But after one more season passes I think he can seriously think of choosing a lot of money instead of continuing to play here. Because the probable amount he would be offered then would be an enormous one. I have heard that he already got an offer a month ago actually and that offer included a salary like an amount more than €400m per year. 

From now on it is really difficult to expect Galatasaray to lose their championship chance to Fenerbahce or Besiktas. Fenerbahce have really done everything they can to help Galatasaray be comfortable in the lead. That draw against Giresunspor is very likely to cause them a big disappointment. Fenerbahce had a chance to carry their title chance to the final week actually. Maybe even then their job was going to be difficult but there was still hope.

However I definitely think Galatasaray are the most deserving team as for the league championship. Because their general effort since Icardi's arrival has been extra impressive. I still can't forget about their incredible winning streak - 14 matches.

I would like to see Messi back in the team honestly. Because Barcelona is really the best place he can go to if he doesn't extend his contract now. It is his home place before anything else of course. He has always wanted to go back there but financial issues was a hindrance for him. Now as you mentioned FFP is the most important thing to determine if Barcelona can have him back.

It feels like this time Messi will reach the happy ending. Things haven't been going on very well between him and PSG recently. Messi apologized for what he has done maybe but it doesn't seem very convincing to me like there is no problem at all.

Ousmane Dembele is speculated with Bayern Munich for the summer. There is only one year left on his contract now and Barcelona don't seem very willing to extend with him yet. If I'm not wrong Dembele was free agent for a while and after that he returned to Barcelona. Xavi has been praising him the most in the team I guess. Therefore I wonder he still wants to see Dembele for longer years. Because if he doesn't convince the board it looks like he can leave soon.

Bayern Munich would be a great option for him in that case. Because his years in the Bundesliga were much better than his time in the La Liga. Maybe he was a Dortmund player but he is very familiar with the league anyway. Besides he can do a great job for Bayern Munich too.

Xabi Alonso is having a dream season in his first time of his manager career with Leverkusen. I wouldn't expect Leverkusen to come a this long way honestly. Because he was inexperienced and I would expect him to take his time for adapting to his new career. However he is so professional now and he really knows what he is doing as well. Alonso has already drawn the attention to himself and he might be wanted this summer by some top teams as well.

In this kind of a season he must be targeting the best success they can achieve which is the Europa League title. Roma is one of the biggest obstacles in this round. But they could have nearly been eliminated by Feyenoord if it weren't for Dybala's life saving goal. This might give Alonso some hint about what they can do against them.

Indeed Roma's main problem is finishing these days. We can understand this easily from their most recent results in the Serie A as well. Because they have been able to score one goal the most in each one of those matches. This is just horrible for Roma and this caused them to lose points in all of those ones as well. Actually I don't think their attacking line is full of bad players. For example even only Dybala and Abraham should do great normally.

When I first saw the news about Dybala to join Roma I got excited about him. Because I was thinking that he couldn't show his best performance at Juventus but he could by joining a different team. But he can't meet all the expectations. Abraham was doing good before but now he isn't that much productive. I can even say that Dybala is better than him as for the general statistics.

It was like an amazing day for Everton. It was shocking to me as well because they defeated Brighton by 5-1 despite having an odd for the win like 9.00 or so. Everton are trying to get away from the relegation area maybe but Brighton are also fighting for a spot in a European cup. It was so hard to understand this score as a result. Everton's most effective style in this game was counter-attack.

Thanks to great counter-attacks they scored pretty nice goals. Brighton defense was such a weak one today. By the way Pickford was also impressive with some really solid saves. It was Doucoure and McNeil's day at the same time after scoring two goals each. Winning against a team in a way better condition must be very helpful for Everton to boost their morale as of now.

Seçimi iktidar kanadı kaybederse hem borsada hem kurda önemli oynamalar olabileceğini düşünüyorum. Mesela kur için düşüncem iktidardakilerin kaybetmesi halinde bir miktar aşağı yönlü bir hareket sergilemesi olacak. Hükümet değişikliğinin piyasaları rahatlatmasını beklerim haliyle. Tabi bu rahatlık kısa süreli olacaktır çünkü ekonominin iyiye gitmesiyle gerçekleşen bir rahatlama ile aynı şey olmuyor. Sonrasında yeniden eski yerine dönüp hatta gerçek değerine doğru yol almaya da başlarsa şaşırtıcı olmaz. Ancak zaman içerisinde doğru adımlarla iyiye gider.

It might seem like Arsenal didn't have big problems on defeating Newcastle by 2-0. However it wasn't the case in fact. It was like the opposite because Newcastle found many critical goal chances in this match. Especially the one they wasted in the 2nd minute was unbelievable. I'm curious what would have happened in this match if that end up with a goal. It was one of the breaking points for Arsenal.

I'm saying breaking points because there was really more than one time. While Arsenal were 1-0 ahead Newcastle wasted important chances once again. They threw their chances a lot by targeting the goal post and Ramsdale's superb saves. This was a tough match of course so I won't judge Arsenal harshly. But to maintain this winning streak they had better improve their defending more.

Verstappen definitely deserved to be selected the driver of the day after that great effort. We even saw him losing a place at the beginning of the race however it wasn't a big obstacle for him to climb so many places anyway. He has a very powerful car and he is such a competitive driver that it didn't take him too long to find himself in a rivalry with Perez for the lead. Verstappen is such a great driver at tyre saving and he was much better than Perez here.

You know that Perez is also very good at it but not the best as it seems. Verstappen was still able to open the gap more with Perez despite having older tyres than him until pitting. Maybe he was behind Perez after the pit but it wasn't a problem at all. It was just too hard for Perez to defend with 25-lap old hard tyres against fresh mediums.

But at least it was nice to see some overtakes among the other drivers in top 10. Still the best race is the Australian GP so far.  

Kane rumours are getting more and more every day. The most recent rumoured teams with him are Manchester United and Bayern Munich recently. Both teams would really make use of such top striker transfer for increasing the scoring productivity and they can be more consistent in their results as well. Kane is just the player to do so really. He is aging slowly but I think he will still be very beneficial for at least a few more years.

The biggest question is about whether he wants to leave England or not. If he wants to stay then Bayern Munich won't stand a chance against Manchester United. Otherwise they might be able to convince him to play for them. But in my opinion Kane will be staying in his current country even if he leaves Tottenham. It would be really great to watch him playing for Manchester United.

I mean they can be one of the biggest title contenders in the English Premier League next season. 

Fenerbahçe'nin böyle kritik bir anda hata yapma ihtimalini az görmüyordum ve öyle de oldu gerçekten. Gidip Giresunspor deplasmanında 2 puan bıraktılar ve Galatasaray'ın liderlikte tekrar rahatlaması için büyük bir fırsat verdiler. Giresunspor da ligde kalma savaşı veriyor belki ama böyle zamanlarda şampiyonluk yarışında bir takım için kabul edilemez bir puan kaybı bu. Galatasaray bence Başakşehir'e karşı tatmin edici bir galibiyet alacak ve puan farkını 5'e çıkaracak. Bu da şampiyonluk yolunda çok ciddi bir avantaj demek.

I wonder what kind of changes we will see about Barcelona in the summer. Xavi needs to prepare his players in the right way for especially the Champions League. Their bad look for a while there is really disappointing and they need to do something about it. Otherwise Xavi can be criticized more by the supporters even if he continues to win the La Liga title for his team. Because it won't be enough success for one of the strongest teams of the league.

Barcelona need to find a solution to having problems against big teams in Champions League matches. Besides there are even rumours linking Messi with them again but we will see. If he returns then I wonder how much Xavi would make changes in his game plan.

I have said before that my choice would be to bet on Milan's advancing to the finale. However the recent results of Milan and Inter started to change my mind a little. Because Inter have been impressing more with a higher consistency level. They are on a winning streak of four matches right now. Their performance in a big match against Roma today was also the kind that deserves to be appreciated.

Lukaku started to be really consistent recently. His contribution is so essential to the team now. He can be a game changer against Milan here as well if he keeps this up. On the other hand Milan also won a big match against Lazio new but this still doesn't seem convincing to me. Because they have had some struggles these days. Their unstable look can cause them to have bigger difficulties against Inter too.

For now I'm just thinking of betting on both teams to score for the first leg of the matchup.

I think that Osasuna made a pretty nice effort there against Real Madrid despite the 2-1 loss. They also had so many goal attempts but still couldn't prevent Real Madrid from being the champions in the Copa del Rey. Rodrygo became the star of the night by scoring 2 goals. His recent performances have started to impress me a lot and he is getting more consistent compared to the old times.

This was an important step forward for Real Madrid considering their situation in this season. Because finally they achieved a title which should improve their morale. You know that they have fallen behind Barcelona a lot in the La Liga and they can't go for the title there. We don't know what they can do against Manchester City in the Champions League this time either. But this title must be some help for them to focus on their Champions League matchup more.

FP1 results were quite interesting. Mercedes drivers had a really solid session and Leclerc was following right behind indeed. The time gap among the first a few places was so close really. Practice sessions can be deceptive most of the time but I mean it for the race especially. But as for qualifying session we can see some similarities in the places. This can happen after all practice sessions end and especially FP3 can be similar to qualifying.

FP1 and FP2 become quite different mostly unlike the usual. Red Bull don't show their real strength at first. But we should be seeing Verstappen having the last word in FP3. Red Bull drivers are already favoured to dominate of course. I will be wondering the fight among Ferrari, Mercedes and Aston Martin here rather than that. We can see some really good action among the drivers of those teams in this race.

Indeed there are speculations linking Neymar with Newcastle recently. However I don't know about this. Newcastle are about to prove themselves by being a part of the Champions League soon though. They are doing it with an average squad and in the most competitive league in Europe as well. This should indeed attract many good players' attention here. However I still can't be sure about Neymar's own wishes for the future.

I mean that maybe he can still want to sign for a much bigger team no matter what. I mean a team with a solid history. When I think like this Chelsea's interest in Neymar comes to my mind as well. It has been linked with him so many times until now. Chelsea is a very rich team now too so there wouldn't be any money issues. But I don't know if it has such plans these days for real. Apart from that Chelsea aren't even joining the Champions League next time so Neymar might not lean towards such deal because of it.
