Send them to the Bosnian nt please. Thank you

Nisam rekao da su oni zasluzili pobjedit nego da smo mi zasluzili izgubit. Nije nijedna ekipa zasluzila bodove veceras al oni su bar nekakav trud ulozili, nasi su igrali priko kurca cilu utakmicu.

He’s great off ball and bad on the ball, but with Galatasaray the decision is “get the ball to Icardi” and he’s incredible at it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In my opinion, Unal fits in perfectly. He was our target to replace Ramos, Schmidt definitely wanted that Kokcu-Unal link.

How many matches have Turkish teams played in England in those 177 years? Fifteen perhaps?

On the other hand, Man United pretty much plays in European competitions every year. So assuming that they play 10 European matches on average per season (five of which at home so 5 x 40 years), that'd result in United's unbeaten streak getting broken after roughly 200 matches.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Not true though. Beşiktaş beat Chelsea 0-2 in 2003. Galatasaray got their first win ever in England.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

After the 2018 WC apart from a few games I haven’t really been impressed by him

Despite finishing 3rd in the WC we still played terrible the entire tournament apart from the Canada game

İsmail Yüksek

Lets not devalue Abdülkerim's efforts here. They also have same points in sofascore (8.1)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In the face of this level of racism we are children. This is a work of art.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Before you edited your comment, you had stated that Galatasaray beating Man United at Old Trafford was the first time a Turkish club won in England in 177 years.

You think you're a smartass don't you?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it was worded wrong and i fixed it. the same way you just edited your whole paragraph.

smartass is the one shoehorning their team's irrelevant victory with the most niche bit of tidbit and calling it pinnacle achievement of shattering deep runs lmfao.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not gonna get offended by obsessed people like you who feel the need to edit each of their comments.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you feeling dramatic today huh. lmao

"stop fixing your posts! you're obsessed!!" as he types his 7th response to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

And who can forget the headline that definitely did not bite us in the ass afterwards; ÇEK Bİ' LETONYA (PLEASE DRAW LATVIA)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

"i edited mine faster so it doesn't show up as edited!!"

get a grip weirdo, i worded it wrong and fixed it.

had nothing to do with you.

How many top teams play with 3 centrebacks and wingbacks today? I think there’s a reason for that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

wow I didn't expect this result and it means so much to us tbh after 2008 they beat us every single game until this groups two wins in a row against very solid Croatia.

This win is really so special

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Mert is probably an upgrade over Ugurcan

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I agree, the fact that we are still so dependent on perisic in attack is concerning

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t know maybe try out a formation that doesn’t require a winger? Like a 532? That is completely on Dalić.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Demiral used to be a beast. Now he's just a passion merchant. Glad Montella picks the players based on their form and training performance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I can’t deny that he is the best coach in our history. However, his tactical abilities are just wack and that can’t be denied. Furthermore, we can’t say that a 352 never works as we have never really tried it with this set of players.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

He is the guy that plays for rennes right. He was solid against fener last year

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

For starters not play 4-3-3. It's perfectly reasonable to play with 3 at the back and 2 wingbacks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Our local cinema showed the turkey -croatia match. I remember going with my bigger brothers and friends. Everyone besides me and 2-3 people left the cinema after the 119 goal. I remember just everyone rushing in after our 120+1 goal to watch the penalties. That game is what got me hooked to football to this day.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Even from a viewer perspective it looked like the ball was going to be faster than it actually was so it was a grave miscalculation but the right intention, he had a good game until that moment with at least 3 key saves

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Brozović was one of the best players on the team, what were you watching

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ajde ne seri.

When you force 8 Bosnians in the NT and replace your real Croatians from Split and celebrate Serbocommunist fans for yelling at him this happens, hope we don't qualify and lose every match!

Does not matter

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's the same at Galatasaray. Guy has huge talent, but 0 brain and situational awareness. Often makes dumb decisions unfortunately

Can someone explain to me why a GK, knowing he's bad with coming out, still comes out of his line? Livas worst trait has to be when he comes out of his line. I remember a few months ago he saved a penalty at Zagreb and immediately, unneccesarily comes out and almost concedes. If he doesn't come out Turkey wouldn't have scored that most likely. Funny thing is Liva played a great match besides that mistake. I don't know if he can improve that aspect so maybe it's a valuable lesson for him and he stays on his line next time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Didn't you play a WC final and a semi final thanks to some of these players? Would you be able to be do this if you had other players instead of these?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I really wouldn’t say Samet Akaydin is our second best centerback lol

It’ll probably be Caglar on the right when he gets back

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Gospa nije bila na našoj strani

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

And should be noted it's only for EURO qualifiers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If the Perisic "handball" vs France in the 2018 World Cup final was a penalty, then the handball on Calhanoglu should've no doubt been a penalty too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Damn i thought he was 2 years older gtfo that's a horrible career move for a near 30 year old one but for a 25 y. old....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly, the end of one great era for Croatia. Now, let's hope we at least qualify
