BESIKTAS GOES DOWN IN KAYSERI AT THE LAST MINUTE!
The flying Black Eeagles of Turkey (Besiktas) are not flying high in the Turkish Super League lately!..
In the domestic leagues, they lost three matches back to back and lost the match against Porto in the Europa League.
On Monday night football match In Turkey, Kayserispor beat Besiktas in the closing minutes of the match by young Furkan Ozcal goal.
Who is this young Furkan?
He is a product of German soccer ....
He started his career with 1860 Munich and later signed three year contract with Kayseri on 18 June 2008.
There are at least six young Turkish players like Furkan, who came from Germany!
Kayserispor's General Manager Suleyman Hurma, has been with this club long time and he know the Germany market too.
I think he is the only real deal general manager in Turkish foootball in my opinion!
On the other hand, The team who out spend every team in the league .....
Besiktas, the team with full of stars, can't win!
I guess, money some time does not buy you championship........
It looks like, money isn't going to buy the championship this season, for Besiktas..
Besiktas is 10 points behind League leader, Bursaspor!
And they have the most expensive team and one of the most expensive coach on the sideline..
Yet, they have lost four matches back to back!
When Ricardo Quaresma does not play Besiktas team can't win a match...
Ricardo Quaresma, is injured ........
And he is not the only one , there are many players from defense and midfield injured!
So, after this lost Besiktas is in Seventh place while Kayseri recaptured the third place with 20 points!
Now , Tell me, why star studded Besiktas, can't win games, while your Anaatolian team Kayserispor, who invested in Turkish youth, wins games?
Because, they are more hungry and they play hungry on the pitch...
That is why!
See you soon.....

These are the questions should be answered by Galatasaray...

Some how, they managed to stay front until the 68th minute when Burak Yilmaz scored the first
goal for Trabzon, and four minutes later substitute Jaja put Trabzonspor 2-1 ahead.
Umut Bulut made it 3- 1 with nice header goal...

SUPER DUPER SUNDAY DERBY.....
On Sunday, All eyes and ears will be glued to the LIG TV for the Turkey's biggest derby match between Fenerbahce and Galatasary....
The early match between Ankaragucu and Bursaspor score will effect this derby match too...
Wounded Lions of Galatasaray, will take the pitch, with their new coach duet Geoarge Hagi and his assistant Tugay Kerimoglu.....
After Unfairly firing ,Rijkaard, Galatasaray with a lot of injuries on the team will have rough time in Kadikoy, against Fenerbahce!
Going in to this match, Fenerbahce is in front of Galatasaray in the standings with 16 points..
Galatasaray after losing to Ankaragucu, last weekend, which cost Rijkaard to his job, they are at 14 points!
With a win, Fenerbahce could pull in one point behind Trabzonspor maybe Bursaspor too!
A tie will not be good to either team............
Both teams will play for win , on Sunday!
In my opinion, the goal keepers will decide the outcome of this match...........
Galatasaray have a big isue in the goal and also on defense plus they have no one to score!
Arda Turan and Milan Baros is out for sure....
On the other hand , Fenerbahce has a better midfield for this match...
The defense could spell problems, when they are, under pressure .....
Galatasaray have not won at Kadıkoy since 1999, last time Galatasaray won the match in Kadikoy Hagi was the coach for Galatasaray!
That is why there are many reason to watch this Turkey's biggest derby match between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray...
I juts hope and pray ,it will be good football all the way not ugly football!
