Star Studded Turkish Super League !




 Turkish Super Lig will take a start this Friday with Fenerbahce and Eskisehir match in Kadikoy stadium .

This season Turkish Super League will have Europe's stars like Van Persie ,Nani, Eto,Podolski, Quaresma and Gomez ! 


Without a doubt , Fenerbahce was the winner in the transfer season ......

They surprised a lot of people inTurkey and in the world when they transferred Robin van Persie ! 

Actually ,they became Fenerbahce United  after getting Nani from Manchester United too...

Along with Persie and Nani, Fenerbahce added Simon Kjaer from Lill , Joseph de Souza from Brazil and keeper Fabiano and Bursaspor goal scorer from last season Fernandao .....

And they are still not done yet ! 

According to reports they want to add Volkan Sen and Ozan Tufan from Bursaspor....

From last season, names like, Emre Belozoglu,Emenike and Dirk Kuyt will not be with Fenerbahce...

Emre's contract wasn't renewed and he jumped to his old pal's team Basaksehirspor!
  
Losing to Shakhtar in the Champions League qualifying around was disaster for Fenerbahce..  
 
They will not be in the Champions League this season ...

Instead , They will play in the Europa League !

Star studded Fenerbahce was aiming to Champions League with new additions but did not happen ..

That was huge disappointment for Fenerbahce fans around the world !

Now, with a new coach Vitor Pereira and brand new team they will open the 2015-2016 season's curten on August 14th, Friday night in Kadikoy,Istanbul against Eskisehirspor...

After getting big names ,Fenerbahce sold total of 37 thousand season tickets for this season !

On the other hand , the other two clubs, Galatasaray and Besiktas were quite ......


They both signed German star players !


Galatasaray got Lukas Podolski and Besiktas added Mario Gomez and their former player and fans beloved Quaresma their roster....

Podolski and Sneijder could be very good duo for Galatasaray this season !

On the other hand Besiktas with Gomez and Quaresma should be better then last season....

The only handicap for Besiktas is the goal keepers ! 

Three of the keepers so far are not giving confidence to new coach Senol Gunes and Besiktas fans ..

Galatasaray and Fenerbahce has solid goal keepers !

Lastly, New comer Antalyspor made a huge splash  and signed  34 year ols Eto !

 How long will he stay there is the biggest question , in my opinon ...

Antalyaspor even tired to get Ronaldinho but they were not sucsesfull  !

With a rokie coach  former Fenerbahce and Denizlispor player Yusuf Simsek ,I really don't know god will the team be this season !

I could bet you this....

They will not be in this league next seson !


Finaly,

In closing.......

Few teams spent a lot of money this season....

Fenerbahce  and Galatasaray team are the most spenders this season.....

Fenerbahce team worth around 172.5 million dollars.....

Galatasaray team worth around 151.5 million dollars ....


According to reports whole Turkish Super League teams (18 teams ) worth around 1.10 billion !

There is alot of money being spent for the sport that is not drawing huge spectators in the stands ..

This has to  change !

If TFF(Turkish Football Federation ) and the teams doesn't hire well knowlege people to market the league, the Turkish Super Lig will be one big bust.....

It's time to clean house and make this league enjoyable !


Incidents  on  and off  the field hurts Turkish football ......

Just like what happended to Mehmet Topal yesterday  while he was in his car....

Enjoy your opening Turkish football weekend.....
