This week on Turkish Football Weekly, Jeremy is out of the country, so Ata is joined this week by Kaan Bayazit. Week 15 results of the Turkish Super League are reviewed. This includes an analysis of the “eventful” match between Kasimpasa and Besiktas. The opponents for Galatasaray and Trabzonspor in their respective European competitions have been drawn, and the initial prospects of them advancing are debated. The Turkish Cup 5th round came to an end, and the results are reported on. There is a discussion of various issues in the news surrounding Turkish football. One of which are two coaching resignations, one of which might come as a surprise considering how said coach’s team has been doing in the league recently, and which will take effect at the end of the first half of the current season. Also, the two hosts delve into a discussion of the aftermath of the Kasimpasa-Besiktas match. The podcast concludes with a discussion on Manuel Fernandes, whose conduct has come into question recently. It’s been reported that Fernandes said that he will not play in Turkey again, and the hosts debate his value to Besiktas and whether he should stay or be sold.
