Turkish Super League 2023/24 Season

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Just when i open the thread i read the pool vote, and i cant believe the second most voted team was.... Besiktas.... incredible, right now they are shit. Well crealy not pure shit, but they are in third position far behind than Fenerbahce and Galatasaray in the top two positions.

Vote published before the league starts so no one knows which team has the most potential, Besiktas is one of the popular clubs in the Turkish League so no need to be surprised if some people choose this club unfortunately, Besiktas is currently 10 points behind and cannot be included as a champion candidate they only deserve to compete for the European League zone while the title of this season will be struggled between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. Overall Besiktas performance is not optimal this season, including in the European League of the 5 matches they only collected one point lol, confirmed they will be eliminated earlier. What's interesting in this league is to see the fight on the top score list Mauro Icardi vs Edin Džeko these 2 old players dominate the scoreboard I can't believe young players are unable to compete with them But Galatasaray plays impressive this season, including in the Champions League and they still have a chance to qualify for the next stage.

Trabzonspor lost at home to in-form Kayserispor in yesterday's match. Kayserispor, the in-form team of the last few weeks, defeated Trabzonspor away from home with a single goal and Trabzonspor suffered their first defeat in five weeks. I more or less knew that this match would be tough for them, but I didn't expect Trabzonspor to lose at home. Both teams didn't play very well in the match, but Kayserispor, who made good use of the positions they found, defeated their rival and managed to rise above their rival in the Super League standings and increased their points to 26.

Kayserispor has only two defeats so far. When we look at the whole, they did a good job. They have already achieved results in terms of points. They are now on the same points as Beşiktaş. They stayed together against the strong teams of the Super League, mostly losing only to Beşiktaş.

Kayserispor's upcoming fixture is quite difficult, they will play against big teams. But as I said, coming to the fourth place in the league with only 2 defeats in 15 weeks is a great success for Kayserispor.

Kayserispor have yet to face Fenerbahçe. It drew with Galatasaray and lost away to Beşiktaş. They will host Fenerbahce in the coming weeks and it will be one of the matches I'm looking forward to the outcome of. Kayserispor's good form is important for the team because if they qualify for the European Cups they will get money. In this way, the team's source of income will increase and they will have the chance to lead the team to success with better transfers. At the moment with their limited income I think they are performing well in the league.

Besiktas just had elections and got a new president. I have absolutely zero idea who he is just like any of the other teams presidents, the only information I have regarding the presidents of clubs in Turkey is that Fenerbahce has a super wealthy president, I do not know any of the others.

But, besiktas seems to be going alright, surely they are behind the top two names but that's normal the difference was huge even before the season started, there is no shock, they did terrible at Europe that could be one of the reasons why they changed the president, but that doesn't mean that they will do a lot better. Lets see how things change, but betting on them could have some changes now, they could go a lot better or a lot worse.

Ankaragücü drew with Beşiktaş at home. We can say that Ankaragücü has made a good start with Emre Belözoğlu. Beşiktaş, on the other hand, has been out of form for som weeks and we don't know exactly what the team will do, so we can't predict how the matches will turn out. Ankaragücü managed to close the first half ahead at home. Besiktas increased the pressure in the second half, scored the equalizer and managed to get at least a draw. Although it is bad for them to get a draw in this away game, at least they will recover. They will be on the rise with the new president.

Hasan Arat has been interested in professional basketball more than football in his career as far as I can see. He was a professional basketball player for 7 years and he played for Beşiktaş for 5 years as well. These all were in like 1970-80s. He is also a businessman just like Ali Koç but I don't have much knowledge about his wealth either.

But if he is a wealthy person he can really make the needed transfers for Beşiktaş after taking over. Ahmet Nur Çebi was criticized for this a lot when Beşiktaş was really silent in the previous transfer window compared to Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray.

yesterday fenerbahce played against sivasspor, in this game fenerbahce needed to win if they didn't want to lose first place to their biggest opponent, I'm talking about galatasaray who is doing very well this season both in the turkish league and in the european champions league which They just need one victory to move on to another stage and if that happens and they continue to remain at the top of the league, then it will be an excellent campaign that Galatasaray will be having this season. while fenerbahce is not doing very well in the conference league, which is a much lower competition in europe when compared to the champions league and the european league. But even so, Fenerbahce is doing badly to the point that in the last game they lost and conceded 6 goals in a very humiliating defeat, making Fenerbahce have 2 consecutive defeats in European competitions.

but going back to yesterday's game, Fenerbahce managed to score 4 goals in that game, this is probably due to a great weakness on the part of the opponent, which also shows that the top teams are the only ones that have any chance against other teams from Europe, with this victory Fenerbahce stays at the top of the table with the same points as Galatasaray, I wonder how long Fenerbahce will be able to chase Galatasaray, because so far Fenerbahce is managing to do well, so far they have only had 1 defeat out of 14 games that they have already done, so it is something positive. I hope they get stronger so they do well in European competitions

Besiktas just had elections and got a new president. I have absolutely zero idea who he is just like any of the other teams presidents, the only information I have regarding the presidents of clubs in Turkey is that Fenerbahce has a super wealthy president, I do not know any of the others.

Currently, the president of Besiktas is Hasan Arat, rich businessman and also former professional basketball player, Hasan Arat was inaugurated on December 3 and he became the 35th president of Besiktas, replacing Ahmet Nur Cebi.
This change in president should be able to bring team like Besiktas to better development because usually by changing the president or owner of football team, changes can be made because the budget coming in is much larger.
But for the Turkish League, the richest president still belongs to Fenerbahce, namely Ali Koc, who comes from the third generation of the richest family in Turkey.

But, besiktas seems to be going alright, surely they are behind the top two names but that's normal the difference was huge even before the season started, there is no shock, they did terrible at Europe that could be one of the reasons why they changed the president, but that doesn't mean that they will do a lot better. Lets see how things change, but betting on them could have some changes now, they could go a lot better or a lot worse.

With this change in president, it is hoped that Besiktas will be able to develop into much better team and can have the opportunity to win one of the titles in the competitions in which it participates.
In the UEFA Europa Conference League they performed very badly because they were only the bottom team in group D and for the Turkish Super League they were much better because they were able to occupy 3rd place with 8 wins and 26 points.
But they are far behind Fenerbahce and Galatasaray who occupy first and second place with 37 points.
It will be difficult for Besiktas to surpass the two big Turkish team this season and the only way to do this is to maintain 3rd position until the League end.

The criticisms were not wrong. Although they were one of the group favorites in the conference league, they suffered a great defeat and could only collect 1 point. They are not successful in the league either. Apparently their squad is not of Beşiktaş quality. I am sure that Hasan Arat will take steps in this regard after he is elected. He may have a basketball background, but he is also a president interested in football. I believe it will be beneficial for Beşiktaş.

Besiktas is one team in the Turkish League that are to an extent doing well for themselves. Even though they don't get to have a spot in the UCL, they still try their best to earn a spot in the UEL  and while at that segment of the European tournament, they do their best to gain good results. They now have a new president who's got the ability to make the team better.

 The funds will be generated and dispersed accordingly for the team. Besiktas being one of the top teams in the league still has the tendency of rising to a better stance. The arrival of the new president is surely going to make a positive turn around in the team and their game play will be improved too. We hope to see the new Besiktas a few days and weeks from now and see the difference they'd make.

Besiktas' first official match with their new president is a derby against Fenerbahce home 4 days from now. This is going to be quite a challenging match for them undoubtedly. But maybe the result of the election might have a good impact on the team in terms of morale also. It had better do so otherwise I don't expect them to win this derby.

Besiktas couldn't defeat Fenerbahce home in their last 3 head-to-head matches. I think this is also an important piece of information because it gives the dominant team a psychological advantage. This week can be a really good opportunity for Galatasaray to take the lead on one hand too.

Derbies in Turkey are probably the most exciting games in Europe? I am not from Turkey, but watching a derby game is really on my to do list and if I can ever arrange it and maybe combine it with traveling, I would love to watch a derby.

So far I found the most interesting games between Besiktas and Galatasaray, but I am absolutely sure that my friends here from the Turkish Super League board can me tell which game would be the one that these days carries the most potential for getting totally out of control... in a positive way of course!

Adana Demirspor have sacked their technical director Patrick Kluivert. According to media reports, Andrea Pirlo comes to the fore. Andrea Pirlo was the technical director of Fatih Karagümrük in 2022. He knows the Turkish league. Adana Demirspor will not be an unknown adventure for him. He might have the chance to succeed in Adana Demirspor like Vicenzo Montella. Vicenzo Montella, the technical director of the Turkish national team, took over the Turkish national team after his success in Adana Demirspor. I think Adana Demirspor could be a good stepping stone for Andrea Pirlo.

The match seem to be a tough match for the both team but however Fenerbachce has more upper chances of wining Besiktas because considering the matches they have played since the season started they have won quite a lot of there matches so i think they are in a good form this season more than Besiktas because even on there league table Fenerbachce is topping the table with 37 points while Besiktas is on 26 points, so we can see that the points different is quite a lot and there is no way Besiktas can never meet them, so I have a strong feeling that Fenerbachce is going to win Besiktas on there next match even if Besiktas is playing from home Fenerbachce is going to win them because they are more good in performance than Besiktas.

Fenerbahçe had a comfortable win yesterday, Sivasspor was very ineffective.
We watched beautiful goals, İrfan's goal was really beautiful. I wish they played like this in the Conference League.
Anyway, I hope both teams win next week.

[el kaka22]

I mean to be fair it was always obvious that Besiktas wouldn't be second in the league, even before the season starts we could have seen that both Fenerbahce and Galatasaray were doing awesome and they were making transfers that would have made the teams a lot better. Both teams got some star players without a doubt, and they were pose to defeat everyone for a long time and that's what happened, both teams had like 10+ win streak or something if I am not wrong and after just a short brief of one loss, the yare back to winning again.

Besiktas looked like they didn't had enough transfer budget to get decent players, and with the money they had they didn't really get players that were worth it, it was always obvious that they would have a bad season, and it didn't take long to show itself neither, ever since the start of the season they have been bad. In fact, where they are right now is amazing considering how bad they have bene, they are doing just fine.

I think the opening match of the league on Friday is one of the important matches in terms of the course of the league.Galatasaray will host Adana Demirspor at home.The winner of this match may have an advantage in the league.Fenerbahçe lost an important 2 points by drawing away from Adana Demirspor, but now things will change if Galatasaray loses points at home against Adana Demirspor. Fenerbahçe, on the other hand, will play a derby against Beşiktaş this week.Beşiktaş will try its best to defeat Fenerbahçe at home.Fenerbahçe, which defeated Sivasspor 4-1 last week, will at least have no problem preparing for the match.The team is back to its old self as Fred, the cornerstone of the team, is back

Adana Demirspor are without a manager/coach at the moment. This is an advantage for Galatasaray, Galatasaray will want to win this game because they have Copenhagen next week and they will go there with high morale.

[emrecemsan]

I think that Galatasaray have a quite comfortable match ahead. Adana Demirspor have been on a really bad run in the league recently. While they don't have a coach as well I also believe that Galatasaray would see it as an opportunity to take advantage of. Adana Demirspor are no longer playing like before. Montella is no more their coach and they have been affected by this quite much.

Galatasaray have a really tough and important match in the Champions League next Tuesday. To boost some morale I would expect them to show a good performance to win this match in the Super League. I won't expect a big rotation from Okan Buruk as well because every match is important here as well for them.

The Turkish Super Lig is one league that's been having a wide point margin between their title holder and the other teams but this season both top teams have actually been playing averagely and their end result is more or less thesame with a difference in just the goal margins, It's not so bad though but it'd mean that one team would have to put extra work to their game delivery if they want to secure the trophy.

 Fernabache and Galatasaray are good teams with good quality of players and both are capable of making the contest tough. But we await who'd be the greatest of them all, Besiktas on the other hand are trying their best in what they do, they still have greater possibilities of excelling in the league and when efforts are out in the team, it'll yield good outcomes, Galatasaray and Fernabache are making the struggle for the league trophy more difficult because they are giving thesame victory energy and aura, the points gathered, the goal differences, they're seemingly the toughest team in the league and their victory is so certain.

 In a long while in the Turkish League, deciding the league's winner will take a while because these two teams are good at what they do, they play to win, and their next league game would undoubtedly end up as a victory for them both because their opponents are the opposite of them in all aspects, they're making the league's football more fun especially when it has to do with these two teams, we await the challenge amongst themselves and we're anticipating the winner. Do not be surprised though that the points will be shared eventually by both teams.

I hope Okan Buruk doesn't rotate against Copenhagen, because he rotated against M.United and we started badly, there is nothing more ridiculous than starting the game with Ndobele.
This is a very, very important game for us.
