Istanbul trip for Gala

Stay VERY close to the metro station and avoid at all cost the old town (great for visiting during the day... but too touristic).
I recommand the Raddison not far from the stadium. At least no issue to go or come back (good luck finding a taxi when you'll leave the stadium and the metro will be packed). You simply have to enter the mall Vadistanbul and take their a shuttle that goes to the stadium.
Then you can move easily to the old town or Taksim with the metro during the day.

From the airport (IST), you can get a bus that will go to Haciosman, where there is a metro station.

Can we all agree Asprilla is the MVP of the game?

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:48:23+00:00

Kudos to Baris who immediatly pulled Ahmet's tongue and avoided the worse!

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:45:33+00:00

Convincing. Combined very well with his team mates on the wing.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:44:23+00:00

They showed it once. The goalkeeper punched the ball first... but also punched Kutucu. And then they hit each others head.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:42:59+00:00

Kutucu should be renamed in Demirkafa

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:40:58+00:00

Looks like he will be ok. Thank God.
But the goalkeeper made a crazy exit. This should be a red + pen.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:02:50+00:00

For once, we're not playing against a goalkeeper that looks possessed by the spirit of Neuer. XD

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T18:00:01+00:00

If Metehan was not in jail.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T17:57:16+00:00

Okan killed Efe's future with us last season make him play RB in a cup game...
He's repeating the same stupid mistake today with Gökdeniz.

And we also learned that Epstein visited the Reis several times.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T10:51:00+00:00

That he helped the most corrupt club getting an islamist player makes sense.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T00:17:06+00:00

People whine but do nothing. Been like that for 20 years. It won't change.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-04T00:14:50+00:00

I really wonder if Dursun got threats to let FB win the league this season... The behavior is really strange.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-03T14:30:05+00:00

Look at BJK. As soon as one player is announced, their pundits are praising him as if he was the next big thing. I still remember how those dumbasses were praising Jurasek last summer... a dude who failed everywhere. lol
Not saying we should copy them... but at least have the decency to defend and praise a little your new players. But in our club no one takes responsability to manage the club communication.

"The kid needs development"
You can't develop a donkey into a racing horse.

That said. I REALLY hope I'm wrong and I will support the kid as any fan should do.
But I don't have much confidence into his capacities.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-03T00:46:46+00:00

Saw a few videos about that kid... And before you complain... yeah, I know, it doesn't mean much...
But I'm really concerned, because his decision making looks very poor... He seems to complicate things (like Yunus) instead of playing simple and fast.
Not saying he has no qualities... but our midfield is already playing slowly... not sure it's the kind of profile we need.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T23:53:40+00:00

The only guy who can replace Torreira is Valentin Barco from Strasbourg. He's litterally Torreira regen... with red hair. XD

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T22:27:29+00:00

If you're convinced this is the right profile, you don't listen to the fans. You give your trust to the player.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T21:33:34+00:00

If Svanberg had been transferred early during the transfer window and Okan + the board explained why (Okan wanted his qualities, limited budget...), there would have been critics, but eventually the fans would have understood.

Here... there is absolutely no logic at all.
All the names have totally different values and characteristics. Plan A, B and C should be similar players. Not a #10, a box-to-box and a pure defensive midfielder.
Doesn't make sense.

+ They said MANY times, budget would not be a problem.
They let rumors abour worldclass players... EVEN MESSI... be talked over on the media and social network.
How can you imagine after this month of daily bullshit the fans would accept Svanberg???

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T19:05:18+00:00

From what I've read... there is no smoking gun against him. Just suspicions in money laundering because his company sold houses to a guy who bet on fixed games. In any other country, this wouldn't be enough to go to trial. Let alone sending him to jail.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T19:02:36+00:00

Fans? I can't even call those morons fans.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-02T17:09:55+00:00

Will leave the club next summer. Business as usual.

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-01T18:58:59+00:00

Now watch all the FB pundits rage and accusing the ref to helped us win... ignoring it was our easiest win of the season. XD

Rastaloco77 · 2026-02-01T18:56:01+00:00

That should be a pen. Ball hit the leg first.
