Turkish Super League 2023/24 Season

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

The second week of the Turkish Super League will start tonight with Antalyaspor vs Konyaspor and İstanbulspor vs Kayserispor. I think Antalyaspor vs Konyaspor will be a slightly better match than the other match. Antalyaspor lost to Trabzonspor last week. New signings like Holltman and Assombalonga have not yet adapted to the team. After the departure of Haji Wright, they have become a more ineffective team in offense. Nuri Sahin has a tough job this season. He has a lot of work to do. On the other hand, Konyaspor entered the season with too many transfers. They drew with Istanbulspor at home last week. Just like Antalyaspor, they are a team going through a period of change. That's why I think this match might be enjoyable.

Galatasaray couldn't make a start to the season like they wanted. They wasted so many opportunities against Kayserispor. Their defense seemed vulnerable to dangerous attacks at the same time. They didn't lose at least but they need to improve their effort more from now on.

Their next fixture is a home match against Trabzonspor. Trabzonspor started with a victory. If Galatasaray continue to have the same issues in defense they can't be punished easily. But I saw some progress in the rematch against Ljubljana in the CL qualifiers. Hence I expect Galatasaray to win this match by a small gap.

Such things can happen in the first weeks, the players in the team are not people who have been playing together for a long time, there are new players. Therefore, it is normal to not score or lose points in the first weeks.
Let's see how they play this week, they will probably manage to get 3 points

Galatasaray needs time this season because the players are not ready yet. We need to pass this period with minimum mistakes. We have no difficult games except Trabzonspor and Molde. If we get through these games with minimum losses, I think we can gain time. Also, I watched Trabzonspor's game in the league last week. They took advantage of being at home and won the game with a goal they scored at the beginning of the game when they put Antalyaspor under pressure. I don't think they played a good game apart from this detail. I think they are not ready yet either, so I think we will win tomorrow's match.

I do agree that UCL is a much more important situation right now than the league, they could end up losing as many games as possible and that's still ok for the time being. They can get to the group stages of UCL first, and then they could end up with a better league run as well. This is why I believe that they are trying to make sure that it goes smooth until the group stage, and after that league is the more important one.

I mean there is a big chance they will not be going any further than group stages anyway, so it means that there is nothing we can do to make them worth it, so we shouldn't really be doing anything that would be indicative of giving any importance away from the league games and could just win those.

Beşiktaş announced the transfer of Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov. Ever since Ghezzal got injured we have been out of the title race. I want Ghezzal to come back to the team as soon as possible, but until he comes back we have to fill his void in the best way possible. Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov is not a player who can bring a level to the team but he is a versatile player just like Ghezzal. He can play as a playmaker winger until Ghezzal comes back to the team. Therefore, I think he is a suitable and good signing for Beşiktaş.

Ghezzal's injury may now be chronic, I hope not.
Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov may be a good transfer, but I can't say anything for now because I didn't watch this player. I hope he is a good player and improves the quality of our league.

Beşiktaş plays the Necip system. It's a quite unique system. With this system, which started with necip, you can back up all positions with a single player. Full price/performance, just the way Beşiktaş does it. Of course, necip is old now, he's not in his old form. They needed a new footballer to do the job of necip. And they found the best man for the job. So much so that Bahtiyar played as number ten and center forward for the national team and as a stopper for his own team. Although the season before that he played in central midfield. His best positions were left wing and left back. I saw analysis that he was actually really good in his old team. Can be enough for Beşiktaş and TSL.

Galatasaray needs to start the Trabzonspor match with high concentration. I expected GS to start the new season well as they kept their championship squad and made good transfers. But in the first match they played a surprising game against Kayserispor a team with no pretensions in the league this season. We can call these mistakes that can happen in the first weeks.

The key to a good atmosphere in the team, good camaraderie and not to be affected by off field factors is serial wins and to lead the league at the top. Trabzonspor are far from their former strength but their squad is not that bad and their coach is someone who knows the game well. Playing good football is a must in this match to win. I think Galatasaray will play an effective game in this match as they struggled to raise the tempo in the first match.

Have you heard that Besiktas are seriously interested in Sergio Ramos? They are planning to sign him on a 2-year contract. But I wonder if they really have that much money in their wage budget now. Because Ramos is said to be demanding 10+ million euros for a year.

He is 37 years old maybe but he is still one of the best defenders. But if Besiktas spend this much money for his wage then I doubt they would be able to continue bringing more players.

[LGD2Business]

There are news written about Ramos, but I couldn't see anything serious. In addition, no such statement was made by the club. If Ramos is going to transfer, his salary will be a maximum of 2.5 million Euro because foreign players earn that much in Beşiktaş. The rest is up to sponsor etc. must meet. Only in this case the transfer can take place.

Genoa was interested in Salih Uçan. If this transfer takes place, Beşiktaş needs to make good money because they will lose a Turkish player from the midfield. While there are foreign restrictions in the league, Turkish players are very valuable. Demir Ege will slowly be added to the squad, but we can't think of him as a starting 11 player yet.

Every team needs a player like Necip Uysal. Necip Uysal plays in every position and gives it its due.
Right now Beşiktaş needs a younger version of Necip Uysal. In fact, I think every team needs these kinds of players.

There is a very important match today.Galatasaray-Trabzonspor will be waiting for football fans with excitement.We can say that the winner of this derby-like match will have a really big advantage. Before this match, there will be a Rize-Alanyaspor match, but I expect Alanyaspor to beat Rize. Alanyaspor, who defeated Başakşehir in the first week, will score at least 2 goals away from Rize.The other match that will start at the same time as the Galatasaray match is Hatayspor.Hatayspor, which started the season well under the leadership of Volkan Demirel, is in good spirits.We can expect a home win against Kasımpaşa.

The first week we played Kayserispor and we drew 0-0. It was a surprise result for everyone. And it was not a good result for us. That's why we need to win this match for sure. When I look at the possible match line-ups, I see a team close to our classic 11 of last season. The new transfers have not yet adapted to the team. If I'm not mistaken, Tete's license is not out yet. Zaha is not ready yet. And Ziyech will sign today. We will play with Baris and Kerem. I hope we win tonight. The new signings haven't fully joined the team yet. But we're still a good team.

Although not a surprise, I expected Galatasaray to struggle in this away match.The team kept their old line-up and didn't even create many positions in the match.The end-of-match protests were in vain and the referee officiated the match very well.Galatasaray started the league with this draw without any morale boost and the fact that they are doing well in the Champions League should at least be a morale booster for them. I expect this match to be completely in the middle again.A possible red card can change the course of the match as it is a match that can go either way.That's why I'm hesitant to bet on this match.If I play goals against, the match will end in a 0-0 draw and I have such a chance

I have heard a speculation like Manchester United are interested in Altay Bayindir. Is this really true? Because I don't think they need another goalkeeper now. They have signed Onana as their main goalkeeper and there are two rotation players in the substitutes also.

But if Fenerbahce manage to get rid of Altay I assume they would be happy. Because there has been a really serious level of drop in his performance in the recent times. He is conceding goals very easily and this is a serious issue for Fenerbahce in the long run.

Fenerbahce are said to be interested in a young goalkeeper named Daniel Peretz at the same time. Do you know him?

[trendcoin]

When I look at it objectively, I see Galatasaray as the strongest candidate for the league title this season. Maybe Fenerbahçe can push them, but Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor are far from even trying. For this reason, Trabzonspor taking points from Galatasaray tonight will increase the rivalry in the league. Galatasaray are the favorites to win tonight but I want Trabzonspor to win.

First of all, I don’t think Manchester United should actually be serious about bringing in another goalkeeper. No need to bring a player home. They are not probably even going to use. Also there is no reason for them to give a player free money. And if the player is actually facing a drop in performance, I think it is definitely a big red flag for Manchester United. They are bringing in players who have been performing very well and after coming to Manchester United, they forget how to play.

How do you think a player who is facing difficulties in his performance going to perform after coming to Manchester United? They have to think about the risk vs reward. I don’t think it is a risk worth taking.

Galatasaray is ahead with one goal against Trabzonspor. We can not say that the match was very enjoyable, we did not watch too many positions. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see more goals after that.
The important thing is to get 3 points from the match, both teams want to do that very much. It is very important to start the league well, in the coming weeks it will be revealed how important these points are

Galatasaray finally got their first win in the league in a derby match against a big opponent. Was expecting a close match but Galatasaray made it so easily and got their first win towards defending the title. I expect a lot more from Trabzon but they arent so good anymore

Icardi, Icardi and again Icardi.

Galatasaray didn't start this season well, but everything changed when Icardi joined the team. Today he showed his quality and gave Galatasaray the win. He is a really quality striker. If he hadn't been excommunicated because of his unusual relationship with Wanda Nara, he could have shaken Aguero's throne. He didn't participate in the pre-season camp. He didn't play in the friendlies. But this season he has scored in almost every game for Galatasaray.

Also, I would like to mention the fans in this match. Galatasaray fans again showed great support for their team. Last season they were also very supportive. It seems that they will support the team this season as well. Their support will undoubtedly be one of the most important things on the road to the championship.

Irz düşmani Icardiiiiiii

Icardi put on a show tonight. Galatasaray played well in this match.
I really liked Angelino tonight, Cedric Bakambu is very bad, I don't like him at all.

Trabzonspor are very bad, good thing they are not in the Europa League.

[Captain Corporate]

There was an elbow to Boey that should have been a penalty, there was kick to Mertens that should have been a penalty, there was putting the foot down on Torreira that should have been a yellow card which would have been second and sent off with red, and these are only just a few that I can think of. Ref was obviously against us, and he butchered the whole game without a doubt, this game would have been even easier win, could have been much larger margin of victory without a doubt. In any case, Icardi is so good that even when the ref tries to make us lose, we still can't lose when he plays like this. This dude could play anywhere right now, he is just way too good. Hell, Real Madrid is missing a striker this year, I can't see how having Icard upfront could be any worse for them, could actually be great benefit to them, he is that good (or maybe I am biased because he plays in my team lol).
