At times very emotional at times very artistic coach of Turkey, faced the Turkish media for a last time as a coach of Turkish National team..
As we all know ,He called it quits after Belgium disaster match, when Turkey lost to Belgium.
After that match, he told the media that Armenia match will be his last match as a coach of Turkish National team.
That match, was show off for him, before the match and during the match!...
Before the match, we had never seen Mr. Terim this relax and smiley face, before....
During the match , after each goal was scored the players were rushed to him and huged him!
Even the guy who had bad fall out with him Halil Altintop went to him after he scored the goal!
Where was this spirit until, Armania match.....
Didn't Fatih Terim promised Turkish Soccer fans to go to South Africa after winning the first four matches....
Is anyone forgetting ,what he said?...
Well, those are all in the past time....
His crucial behavior on the side line , getting kicked out of the match, and much more, made Fatih Terim very controversial coach, in Turkey.
These were his week links......
But, Today He talked about his presence in the Turkish Football(soccer), today ...
Wheather we like him or not he has done good things at Turkish National team nad Galatasaray.
His most accomplishment came in when he was coaching Galatasaray and lastly with Turkish National team in 2008 Euro Tournament....finishing third place...
I have known Fatih Terim ever since he started coaching Turkish National Team...
I followed him when he came to United States and Canada...
So, I know a lot about him....
We know, He learned a great deal from Piontek, when he was working under him....
Today during the press conference he talked about why the Turkish National Team did not go the World Cup Tournament in South Africa and mainly him self....
Here are some quotes from Fatih Terim....
“I made mistakes, as anyone willing to make a revolution would,” he said. “Trying to take Turkey, which did not even have a place in the football world 15 years ago, somewhere, anyone would make mistakes. The biggest one was to raise expectations.”
*********************************************
“There are talented Turkish players raised in families living in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, et cetera,” said Terim. “Foreigners can find talent in 5 million Turks in Europe, so we should find seven or eight times that if we are talking about a country with a 70 million population.”
************************************************
“I have my regrets and I have my ifs of course,” he said. “But I believe that the wrongs did not outnumber rights.”
Do you agree?...
Let me know and drop a line here , if you want.
