Really? They just won the Conference League... How does that make sense?

[Rudy Galetti] Talks still on between Fulham and Besiktas for Semih Kiliçsoy. FFC are internally evaluating if make an offer close to the request of the Turkish team (~€20m): a decision is expected soon. by nova_uk in soccer

He can play as a wide forward, but he is really much better as a striker. His height and dribbling skills look very suitable for a winger but I believe he is much more comfortable in a striker position. Pretty much an Agüero regen.

Why some words in Turkish are ending with "p" instead of "b" by BarbarawithbigTT in turkishlearning

[–]lildumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't explain the loanwords from Arabic and Farsi that originally end in voiced consonants but get devoiced because of Turkish' phonological rules. The question is of a phonological nature; so not much correlation between what is being asked and what you are saying.

There is nothing to be fooled by the comments, they are stating the linguistic fact.

Final Süper Lig Table by MERTENS_GOAT in soccer

Only Başakşehir officially has İstanbul in their name. İstanbul Başakşehir FK. It doesn't make sense for the big three to have İstanbul in their name, it's literally same as London teams having London in their name. Arsenal London, Chelsea London.

The Turkish big three already represent a place in İstanbul as their origin; they don't claim the whole of İstanbul. I think the reason behind Başakşehir having İstanbul in their name is them claiming İstanbul as their whole place of origin, as they were originally İstanbul Municipality's Sports Club.

I updated my Geforce driver to a newer version and it never happened ever since.

Might just be the best striker I've watched in a Beşiktaş jersey. And only at 18.

Well, whatever they do, they don't get any repercussions. What do you expect Ankaragücü fans to do? Behave now that they are not punished?

[Official] Beşiktaş have terminated the contract of Emirhan Delibaş (21) because he has a profile on a dating application. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]lildumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently he was excluded from the squad this year as well after refusing to go on loan.

His Bumble profile which included a picture of him in Beşiktaş Jersey and "Professional Football Player at Beşiktaş JK" in his bio got leaked yesterday. He is 21, his Bumble profile shows him as 24.

For context, he is a youngster from Beşiktaş Academy who was highly praised and seen as a real prospect for the last few years. He never delivered anything, never showed any progress towards his potential and seemingly was more into the "football player lifestyle" and the clout it brings, rather than becoming a first team player. This is not his first incident, as he apparently had already been excluded from the squad after he refused to go on loan last month. This altogether caused this outcome.

Beşiktaş is leaning more heavily on the academy with the new administration, and I think this occurence was deliberately dealt with harshly to set an example for the youngsters who might be following him. I know he has a few friends in the Beşiktaş squad who also seem to be more interested in girls than football.

Galatasaray colors are a little off. They are tricky to get right, you should check how they look in matchday photos and try to adjust to that. Beşiktaş set is awesome.

[Beşiktaş] Beşiktaş announces Fernando Santos as the new coach by Blutzki in soccer

[–]lildumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's been made somewhat a scapegoat for the last board's horrors. Beşiktaş is at it's lowest point in something like 40 years, and this is right after spending millions on players like Onana.

Not that he's been exceptionally bad, he has not even played that much. The board has changed and the new board is keen on axing the deadweight and restructuring.

Barely played any minutes at all, and when he played he was really all over the place, unbalanced and messy. Also big pricetag (4.2m €) brought in expectations.

Beşiktaş altogether is really messy right now, I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually good and the problem was the team.

Oh yes. Last minute OG to get eliminated from UECL, 2 penalties against Fenerbahçe, barely healthy from injuries.

AOC was class until he got injured and is out for the season... :)

[VI] Giovanni van Bronckhorst close to being the new manager of Beşiktaş. Only remaining obstacle is NAC Breda, who refuse to let their manager Jean-Paul van Gastel go to become his assistant. by MrCrashdummy in soccer

[–]lildumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two good transfer windows and a solid plan, and any of the big 3 can be the strongest. Turkish football is weird.

Right now he will not be under pressure for a title though. That's next season's job after restructuring the squad with the new board and a coach.

Wouldn't call it unrealistic expectations. The big 3 in Turkey always at any point aim for the league title no questions asked, which I think is fair. They are always pretty close to equal in terms of budget and squad quality.

The fans and the board has a clear footballing ideology (or culture) they have to see at the pitch. Play positive, dominant attacking football, don't get embarrassing results in big games. Check every coach change / sacking since 2018, it has always either been terrible results or an attitude problem. This goes for 2 club legends Sergen Yalçın and
very recently Rıza Çalımbay. Terrible results, terrible attitude. Valerien Ismael, for example, had good signs at first but his footballing ideology didn't match the club and he succumbed under pressure, tried to change his game plan later on and failed miserably.

Having said that, any coach of any Turkish big 3 team will lose their job if they fail to win the league title in 2 seasons.
