Look, I don't feel like writing for a long time. Forgive me. We always sit with hope and dream beautiful dreams with excitement. Then we go home feeling dejected and struggle with nightmares.
You will get your first victory in the Champions League in years, you are ahead 2-0, you scored two great goals. Oğuz's goal is wonderful, Greenwood's goal is beautiful!
MATCH FLOW ERRORS
I hate to say it, trying to start from the goal with short passes against pressing teams is an invitation to a torturous death. Those who say otherwise are, I'm sorry, football ignorant.
Teams that concede goals while trying to get out of the goal with these mindless short passes in front of teams that put pressure like Atmaca do not deserve to win a match. I talked about this at every opportunity in my television program for 21 years. So has this virus disappeared? No, various football disabled people who think they are very cunning, risk the price, engage in this nonsense and pay the bill. Fenerbahçe, for example, relived this disaster, whose image in Turkey is perhaps most identified with its former player Samet. That first unbelievable goal conceded cast a shadow over a great match, it broke the morale of the crowd and the players started to lose their footing. This was no different than scoring an own goal. Ederson and Guendouzi jointly signed this nonsense. But if you ask me, this mistake was İsmail Kartal's. Any coach who encourages or allows this has no right to complain about a goal conceded like this!
Well you made this mistake, you start the second half. Play with self-confidence in front of your own audience, push, score one more goal and end the match! What travels? Almost from the beginning of the second break, there was a host who had lost control of the midfield, who could not press the ball, who could not accelerate or slow down the pace of the game whenever he wanted, and who had lost control. In the last half hour of the match, the Czech team completely dominated the game. The attacks were coming from everywhere, left and right, and when we entered the last 20 minutes of the match, I clearly saw that it was no longer possible for Fenerbahçe to win this match. I regretfully wrote this to the WhatsApp group I founded, which includes important names of Fenerbahçe, at the 75th minute. When the goal came in the 90th minute, I wasn't surprised in the slightest. Because it was obvious that this match could not be won even if there was such a challenge.
İSMAIL KARTAL TROUBLES
Unfortunately, İsmail Kartal left his mark on the match with wrong changes again. The fact that he brought out the best player on the field, Oğuz Aydın, for Fenerbahçe and left Kerem Aktürkoğlu, who played one of the worst matches of his life, on the field caused the audience to tear their hair out. Of course, I remembered the Olympiakos disaster three years ago. Unfortunately, the contradictions, hesitations and wrong decisions İsmail Kartal experienced in his player preferences between European and league matches are now eye-opening. Just as one cannot sacrifice the Olympiakos match by thinking about the Ümraniye match, you cannot sacrifice the 3 points that will be won in the Champions League years later with thoughts such as "now let me give Oğuz Aydın some rest"!
Unfortunately, the press conference after the match was unsuccessful as we have always seen this year. I'd prefer not to go into details. If you can't go forward, you've lost the midfield and you're floundering, at least don't take Lukaku, whose purpose no one understands yet, and put Levent or Bartuğ on the field... that didn't work either. Maybe with these moves, Slavia could create a formula to protect their goal from Prague's repeated raids. I hope they remember the offensive importance of Levent's crosses, for example, in the Galatasaray match!
HOW DID THOSE WHO EXECUTED TALISCA COMMIT SUICIDE!
Of course, I will have to touch on it briefly: The mentality that executed the team's star, Talisca, with an incredibly football-impaired decision, was not aware of many issues. We knew that Asensio was injured and had not recovered yet, they did not know! We knew, but they did not, that Lukaku was overweight, out of shape, recovering from a long injury period and not ready. We could see, but they could not, that Talisca had gotten used to Turkey, that he felt like a fish in water in Istanbul and Fenerbahçe, that he now saw himself as a Fenerbahçe fan as much as we did, and that he was rising to the top of his form. Fenerbahçe's football branch committed suicide while trying to remove Talisca and add Lukaku to the team just before the start of the season, and first of all, they lost a terrible time and momentum. Believe me, I tried to stop this unforgivable mistake until the last second. The managers are my witnesses. We still haven't heard any regrets from them!
Today, thanks to these know-it-alls, the team played the match without their main number 10. The mentality that forcibly removed a star who scored goals in every match and was considered a hen who laid golden eggs, from the yellow-dark blue colors, disregarding the tears of the man, and an eclipse of mind that preferred to immediately forget the value of this football player's single-handedly taking Fenerbahçe into the Champions League, unfortunately left the team's forward line captive to a mediocre appearance.
GALATASARAY-FENERBAHÇE MATCH …
How will Fenerbahçe maintain its psychology and gain self-confidence before the critical away game against Galatasaray? How will the coach, who is constantly torn between whether to exist or not, whether to resign or not, and whether or not he regrets being promoted to this position, will maintain his calm and manage to self-criticize the mistakes he has made? How will the managers be able to save the team from the last-second pain brought by the Slavia match? These are just a few of the pile of questions before us! Thus, Fenerbahçe made people say "we have seen this movie before" with the incredibly irresponsible goal it conceded at the last minute in the Champions League rankings and literally played with the mental balance of its fans, perhaps falling down 12 places! Of course, it is an undeniable fact that it is obvious how much the lost points affect Turkey's football rankings in Europe!
But you can be sure of one thing: next Monday, there will be a huge clash between the two biggest giants of Turkish football. And as always, the whole of Türkiye will watch this! You can be sure that this will fuel a whirlwind of rising excitement beyond anyone's expectations from now on. As long as the new central referee board appoints an objective and impartial referee who will play what he really sees in this match! The change of MHK management will be a great chance for Turkish football!
