Fenerbahce upbeat after weekend victory!.......
Fenerbahce upbeat after weekend victory!.......
Fenerbahce coming off confidence-boosting weekend win ahead of Tuesday's Champions League match in Istanbul.
Fenerbahce made a poor start to the season, losing four of its first seven games under new manager Luis Aragones, who led Spain to the European Championship title in June. But the club beat Kocaelispor 3-2 on Saturday with an injury-time goal from Semih Senturk, to relieve some of the pressure on Aragones.
"Of course, I am not pleased with the game we played in the first half," Aragones said. "I think the atmosphere at the Champions League will be different."
Fenerbahce defender Roberto Carlos vowed that the team could turn things around in the Champions League.
"We've beaten Chelsea at home (last season). The atmosphere in Kadikoy is always different," the former Brazil defender was quoted as saying by newspaper Hurriyet on Monday. "This time, we will make it up to the fans that we have upset."
Fenerbahce could be without injured midfielder Gokhan Gonul, but the club is also upbeat after its first away win in the Turkish Turkcell Super league this season on Saturday.
On the other hand, Arsenal,have defensive worries ahead of their Champions League Group G tie against Fenerbahce in Istanbul on Tuesday.
Centre-back Kolo Toure has been ruled out after twisting shoulder ligaments in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Everton.
Captain William Gallas (hamstring) and Bacary Sagna (knee) are carrying injuries sustained on international duty last week and are also unavailable after missing the match against the Toffees.
However, midfielder Samir Nasir has shaken off a knock picked up against the Merseysiders and Nicklas Bendtner (ankle) and Johan Djourou (head) both return after being absent at the weekend.

TURKEY LOST IMPORTANT POINTS!....
Turkey moved in to second place in World Cup Qualifying Group Five despite failing to find a way past Estonia on Wednesday.
The Turkish National Team had to settle for a one rather than three-point lead over third-placed Belgium after the hosts picked up their first point of the campaign.
And with two games with Euro 2008 winners Spain still to come, the Turks could live to rue their failure to pick up maximum points against one of the weakest teams in the group.
Turkey have stuttered since their surprise run to the European Championship semi-finals, needing to come from behind to beat Bosnia-Herzegovina and draw with Belgium in their last two qualifiers.
And they again failed to hit top form in Tallinn as they failed to break down a defence which had conceded 13 goals in their opening three group games.
Substitute Yusuf Simsek, who was introduced just after the hour mark, wasted Fatih Terim's side's best chance when he fired over when unmarked inside the area.
Dmitri Kruglov came closest for Estonia with an angled shot from the edge of the area which flew just wide of the post, but neither side could make the breakthrough.
Teams
Estonia: Londak, Kruglov, Piiroja, Barengrub, Sisov, Klavan,Vassiljev, Vunk (Puri 80), Dmitrijev,Voskoboinikov (Zeniov 63), Oper.
Subs Not Used: Kotenko, Lindpere, Rahn, Kink, Saag.
Booked: Dmitrijev.
Turkey: Demirel, Cetin, Sarioglu, Balta, Kas,Sahin (Erdinc 33), Akman (Simsek 62), Turan, Aurelio,Kazim-Richards (Boral 75), Altintop.
Subs Not Used: Kulbilge, Birinci, Balci, Yildiz.
