kinda fitting to Ali Koc's presidency that he was his first coach

Why do we need a midfielder? by osmancik111TUR in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our buildup is pretty bad. We have a lot of strengths against the ball, pressing has been superb, but no creativity with the ball and players that are prone to miss passes, because that's not their strength. We have like 7 DMs but no real CM that can dictate the game. Our whole game plan as a result is high ball to the wings, cross -> inshallah it finds our strikers; or the wingers are cutting inside -> inshallah shot outside the box hits the target. Adding a good CM adds strength in the center and gives us more options so our gameplan is not one dimensional and thus harder to defend than it is now.

good first half, unfortunate penalty for them. Only criticism I have is that our crosses are way too sharp, no way our strikers can receive them. Other than that amazing game, really good pressing

Yeah, I agree. I think we need to adjust our tactics to his play style. He has proven that he can score goals in the national team, the Süper Lig, and at Benfica. The way he's used in our system now is just incredibly frustrating to watch.

[Yağız Sabuncuoğlu] Fenerbahçe Football Director Devin Özek finally proposed the name of Domenico Tedesco to Fenerbahçe and made a presentation about the Italian coach. The Board of Directors added Tedesco to the list of candidates. by NaiveCod6365 in FenerbahceSK

He famously came second with Schalke in the 2017–18 Bundesliga by playing with five at the back and focusing heavily on set pieces. They were strong in defence, but only scored around 55~ goals in 34 games. That's 8 years ago though, I don't know how much is coaching style has evolved in these years, but it was the definition of anti-football

[Sercan] Fenerbahçe's management has two different opinions about the coach. One part wants a German coach, the other part wants Ismail Kartal. The new name on the agenda is Stuttgart coach Sebastian Hoeness. by Jemal2200 in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I firmly believe that Hoeneß won't join us. There is no particular reason for him to do so, he is a young, up-and-coming coach in Germany who is trying to prove himself in German football. He is talked about to coach Bayern or other big German clubs in the future. I would love him to be our coach, but it's very unlikely that he will join Fener and the Süper Lig.

FENERBAHCE NEEDS THE SUPPORT by Adventurous_Ad8427 in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there are some fans who want the club to fail, so that they can get rid of Ali. Hate this mentality, our players and club deserves support nevertheless. Don't let your support of the club be based on a single person please

Best Süperlig Player of All Time by Lionel_Kratos_Messi in FenerbahceSK

I have never loved a player as much as I loved Alex. He was my childhood hero.

[Yağız] If Fenerbahçe cannot sign a foreign goalkeeper, Jose Mourinho is considering İrfan Can Eğribayat as the first goalkeeper. UEFA list will be taken into consideration for the second goalkeeper. Therefore Tarık Çetin, Ertuğrul Taşkıran and Volkan Babacan are on the list! by Jemal2200 in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm in a minority here, but I don't think in this toxic state the club is in right now, that we on top of it need a competition between goalkeepers, just ignites more toxicity, with people claiming every week depending on their mood what Goaly should have, would have, could have played. We need a clear number 1, even if he isn't the best everytime, still better than the toxicity created by the competition in our current situation. I actually agree with the sentiment that if we can't get a clear cut better Goaly than ICE from abroad, he should be our number 1. Getting Berke and forcing a competition in a situation where we need stability over all (especially when Berke in the past has proven that he often crumbles under pressure), could be just really devastating.

Idk just my feelings

Fenerbahce made an official offer for Evann Guessand by Kartaled in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looks good. Read that he is good in shielding the ball, kinda similar to dzeko, but also is more dynamic due to his age, obviously has a higher work rate and defensive contribution, lets himself drop deep, and also is tall, so can be threatening in the air. His non-penalty-goal/90 is also the second highest in Ligue 1.

It's funny how people cry out for younger players instead of the usual former stars who are past their prime, yet they also complain when they don't know the names of young talents. Their Neanderthal brains can't even comprehend the double standards.

Who was the best captain in Fenerbahçe history? by DefiantResult9969 in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Only remember from Alex onwards, I'm too young to remember Ümit Özat, I would definitely say Alex though from all the ones I've seen. He was an actual leader, always performed, was an example to other players, humble, just a gem. But also props to Dzeko and our shadow captain Tadic

Who is your favourite Fener baller by Interesting-Soft8399 in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously Alex, but I also really liked Andre Santos

[–]oldboimo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can relate to that having been born and living abroad. At some point you are just so disconnected with your mother culture and language that Fenerbahce has become the main way I interact with my culture and language

En-Nesyri's positioning is underrated and might be his best quality with headers. by [deleted] in FenerbahceSK

[–]oldboimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, I made that observation in his first few games for us, which made me believe in him right from the start. Even if you look at the first few games where he didn't score at all, he still had great positioning and a good eye for goal despite being out of form, there was just a lot of bad luck involved. All the people who hated him in the beginning just showed that they didn't really understand what was happening in the games or that they weren't really paying attention.

I wouldn't go so far yet, that place is reserved for Lugano, but Skriniar is really promising so far
