Turkish Super League 2022/23 Season

[trendcoin]

Beşiktaş got a comfortable win tonight... Redmond, Aboubakar, Onur and Mert are playing well but Ghezzal is the one who boosts the team's performance. He has yet to contribute to the team in terms of goals and assists (He had an assist on Aboubakar's second goal tonight, but he has the potential to do more), but the team has already managed to level up. If Ghezzal had not stayed away from the team this season due to prolonged injuries, Beşiktaş could have been one of the strongest contenders for the championship right now. Indeed, it was torture to watch Beşiktaş's matches during the weeks when Ghezzal was not playing due to his injury.

The champion team in this league is experiencing a serious decline the following year for some reason. This is what happened to Trabzonspor. They became champions years later, but their performance this season is a huge disappointment. I think they had their fill last year. It may seem like a good idea to maintain and add to the champion roster and win series championships, but some players have championship complacency and cannot perform in the same way.
With today's loss to Kasımpaşa, Trabzonspor completely threw the towel into the league. It doesn't matter anymore where they finished the league.

I always feel like this is mainly about financial issues. When you win a title, players seek extra financial benefits, increase in their payments etc. So whatever you do, you need to sell some players away, or you need to terminate some contracts. For example, I am sure Galatasaray will send Icardi away because they won't be able to deal with his contract, Boey will be sold, possibly Nelson may be sold even. Its nearly impossible for teams to find better versions of their championship squad and continue.

Trabzonspor was one of the surprising teams of this year, I thought they would continue to fight until the end of the league, but they were not successful. After this week's defeat, we can say that they don't have much chance anymore.
Beşiktaş has a game tonight and their opponent is not very strong. The probability of getting 3 points is quite high, they can come up as the 2nd in the league. For some reason, I have a feeling that Fenerbahçe may lose points

Although we saw Trabzonspor's dominance in the Super Lig last season, their performance this season has not been good. Trabzonspor's performances have been erratic since the start of the season. And they are not competing for the title. Trajonspor's defense has not been good this season due to their weak defense. Trabzonspor's performance would have stabilized if the defense had been stronger.

Besiktas team is consistently playing well in every match. And the important thing is that they beat teams like Fenerbahçe 4-2 in their last match. And so getting three points against GIresunspor in today's match will not be a difficult task for Besiktas players.

many did not expect that Trabzonspor's performance had drastically changed 180 degrees compared to last season, losing 2-0 to Kasimpasa really made Trabzonspor's history in their last 5 matches even worse. their front and back lines looked problematic, even gomez didn't contribute much to trabzonspor this season, different from last season. the match between Fenerbahce vs Fatih will take place today, my prediction is that Fenerbahce will win, right now Fenerbahce and Besiktas are competing in the top 3 positions, where is victory something Fenerbahce must get.

[püsür]

There is a very important match for Beşiktaş today. They must win at home. I don't think Giresunspor can show much presence in Vodafone Arena. Especially if Beşiktaş scores an early goal, the match will go to higher differences. In the forward line Redmond, Cenk and Aboubakar are playing. They're all in great form and they all scored in the last game. They will want to score again.

It was indeed a very important game but Giresunspor surprisingly played well, especially offensively. They could almost score more. But Beşiktaş played much better later on in the game and got a solid win. Redmond is playing splendidly. I don't think Beşiktaş can keep him for a long time. Masuaku also played great. He should play next week and Beşiktaş should get him. If he starts the next game, Beşiktaş will have to pay 2.2 million euros in 4 payments. I think it is a great deal for a left back. It is so hard to find a good player with this amount of money for his position. After Josef, watching Amir in his place is hurting my eyes. If I am not mistaken, Beşiktaş paid 3 mil euros for him. I would understand if he has turkish passport but otherwise, It was not a good move.

Anatolian teams generally perform like this, if they are very successful one year, they play very poorly the next year. This isn't the first time we've seen it. That's why they don't have continuity and they can't be among the big football teams and some of them start the year very well, but the situation is reversed within a few matches, it is very difficult for teams with such a low budget to be successful all the time

[LGD2Business]

Redmond is getting better every game. He shows that he's a solid Premier League player. He scored a goal in this match, as well as played very well. Aboubakar is proving once again that he's the best striker in the league. There is no game he has finished without scoring. Had he been here since the start of the season, he would have finished the league as top scorer. Weghorst was good but Aboubakar is another dimension. If Beşiktaş continues this game until the end of the league, some surprises may arise for some. I think the reason for the injustice done now is better understood.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Galatasaray have only the Super League left in their hands after being eliminated in the Turkish Cup. But I don't think they are very disappointed with that elimination.

Because they are already going for the league title with a really solid performance throughout the season. Of course there is still no guarantee for that but they are the most likely team that's for sure. Fenerbahce risked their title run a lot by losing that derby game against Besiktas last week. They will just hope for Galatasaray to start making mistakes. But from the point I'm seeing I don't think that Galatasaray would start a that much bad form. The recent transfers have been making a great impact on the league games.

[Balmain]

It will be an important day for Fenerbahçe, I think they will win this match. Jorge Jesus' tactic works against middle-level league teams, but not against a difficult opponent. Besiktas took the second place with the win yesterday, Fenerbahce has to lose today in order for them to stay in the second place with a lot of matches. Elimination from the cup was not very important for Galatasaray. Everything is planned for the league, we continue to fight to become the league champion. Team game, players, standings, everything is in favor of Galatasaray.

I agree because financial difference is widening between top leagues and few leagues which are emerging but needs time to have better things in near future even few clubs are doing better and have chance to increase quality and performance, but things still not as we need for having better results Trabzonspor is defending champions, but their performance is badly down and no doubt even club like Galatasaray also facing difficulties for keeping top quality players because they have no luxury which allow them for keeping players like Icardi and Boey.

But, here I also like to suggest if these clubs need to increase their income then surely they need to work on few things like have academies which allow them to bring youngsters and then sell them to big clubs which is also good and better way even no easy but still profitable for few leagues in Europe like Portuguese and Dutch as well.

Arda Güler played well throughout the match this evening and made a good assist. This young star means a lot for Fenerbahce. He sometimes makes mistakes in his last choices, he should improve himself a little in this regard, but other than that, he is great in terms of talent. I watched the match just to follow Arda.

Talking about Fenerbahce, they played very disorganized in this match and they could not make even one organized attack in the second half. Even if Galatasaray lose all their matches, they cannot win all their matches. To be honest, I don't think they will be champions this season.

I think it is a bit about the finance situation. I mean they got some great players and they need t owin everything they win, the aim is to build a team that can finally get another European cup eventually, and that is not going to be easy at all, it is going to be something that is troublesome in the end. Remember, this team spent very good and small amount of money for these star players, and that's understandable, but if they keep it going like this without winning anything, that will continue to be a trouble.

Icardi is here just for this season, in a few games he will leave, and unless they can figure out a way to keep him, which looks terribly hard to do, they will not have a striker too and still spending so much.

[execijutiere]

In the last match of the week we watched the Karagümrük-Fenerbahçe match.Fenerbahçe won the game after being down in the first half with a good game in the second half.I have to say that Altay had a big mistake in the first goal.Altay is in a bad form and if he doesn't come to his senses he may soon be cheered by the fans.He needs to come to his senses.
In the second half, the game became more lively with the introduction of miha zajc and pedro and I have to say that Fenerbahçe immediately tied the game with a great goal scored by miha at the beginning of the second half.Arda güler assisted the second goal and Fenerbahçe won.I don't understand why zajc and arda güler are still kept as substitutes.Jesus will lose the sympathy of the fans if he continues like this.

It is going to be tough for Fenerbahce and Besiktas is pressing from behind, but Galatasaray has a pretty comfortable situation now with being 6 points ahead. I am not sure but I think I recall that they don't play against each other anymore, I mean Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. Ok I noted that one game was rescheduled but the date has not yet been set. Well the first game ended 0-3 for Galatasaray and if they end up having equal points in Turkey's league the direct comparison is what counts. I think that advantage is probably on Galatasaray's side unless something unforeseen happens. That means Galatasaray has top drop 7 points instead of 6 and Fenerbahce would have to win it all. With just 7 games to go it is not impossible since they are head to head once more, but still tough to accomplish.

Its definitely not impossible for Fenerbahçe to close 6 points difference and win title. But people look at statistics more than what's happening on pitch, stadium or just bench. Galatasaray squad has very high motivation towards winning title and they tend to win matches even if they don't play good. On the other hand Fenerbahçe fans are losing their patience with manager and board. Jorge Jesus seems very demotivated (I am sure especially after Beşiktaş match). Galatasaray will very likely win.

If we look at Galatasaray's staff and quality, they will hardly lose points again. In the first match, they defeated Fenerbahçe with a crushing score of 3-0. To be frank, Fenerbahce will have a low chance in the league match they will face in the last weeks. For now, they should not lose points in the league. When 10 people could not beat the remaining opponent against Beşiktaş, there was a difference of 6 points at the moment. If they won the Beşiktaş match, we would talk about a difference of only 3 points with Galatasaray.

Thanks to that game there is a possibility that Fenerbahce can beat Galatasaray when they meet next and Fenerbahce could end up winning and yet still not get the title. When you build a roster that is not half bad but you have a manager that insists on playing badly and making players play out of position and force their best players to play when in fact the "best" player is bad, is the trouble.

There is likelihood of bad managers to play their favorite player even if that player is bad, and that's what Jorge Jesus is doing right now. They need to realize they have a core 11 that is amazing and just focus on making that player and stick. This season is as good as over unless something major happens.

[Jossque]

In the matches played yesterday, we saw the favorite teams winning.
In the Kayserispor-Ümraniyespor match, it was the home side that got 3 points with 3 goals. Kayserispor is doing very well this year and I must say that they have a good point total. Even though the squad quality is not very good, I think it can be considered a success for them this season to collect so many points. The match was actually a more important match for Umraniyespor. Since they are in the relegation zone, we can see every match as a final match for them.
Fenerbahçe, on the other hand, won the match by scoring 2 goals in the second half of the match after being down in the first half. Despite being away, Fenerbahçe played the better game. Karagümrük were unbeaten in 11 matches and we can say that they are doing a really good job this season. It's not easy to win against such an in-form team. For Fenerbahce to get 3 points in such a tough away game shows that they are still in the race for the championship.

Yes and for Galatasaray to not win the title four years in a row feels like an eternity to them. But we can expect some very heated up games on the home stretch. There will be a lot of resistance by the other clubs, but compared to the last couple of years Galatasaray is much more stable and determined to take it home this year.

I just noticed that there isn't any direct Champions League qualification anymore for Turkish clubs, not even Europa League qualification. The best they can get is a Champions League qualifier and a Conference-League qualifier. That is hard.

[LGD2Business]

This is the easiest match in Galatasaray's close fixture, it seems very difficult for them to lose points. İddaa gave only 1.13 odds for Galatasaray's victory. Will there be any surprises in this match, it's very difficult. Kayserispor has a good manager, but the squad is very weak. They won 3 games in a row, but they have never won 4 times in a row this season. They had a good winning streak, the previous series always ended in defeat. Will it be different this time? They score goals with Thiam, Mensah and Mane. They have an impressive offensive line when you look at it. But they have problems on defense. We can watch a game with a lot of goals.

[ajanwalker]

Galatasaray and Kayserispor will face each other at Nef stadium today. Galatasaray is the favorite of the match, but the football they play is not good at all. In the last match played in Nef stadium, Başakşehir lost 2-3. Kayseri is a good and resilient team. The match can be full of goals. If I bet, I will say if 3.5 or 4.5 more goals will be scored. In the other match, there is the Antalya derby. Antalya will play with Alanyaspor at home. I think Antalya will win the match easily.
