Like we used to.

The big kick-off has been done and Besiktas showed up in very first game of the season against Antalyaspor.The air was warm and humid,which created a disadvantage for our team.We managed to win the game in a style which we’re used to,not only with Besiktas,last season,but also with Turkey,our national team,in the European Cup 2008 this summer.The last 12 minutes was enough for us.

Antalyaspor played well in the first half,and scored 2 of the goal in first period.It is rumoured that Sinan Engin gone in progress and suggested Ertuğrul Sağlam to change the tactics,and when he changed to 4-2-3-1 to 4-3-1-2,the second half played under our pressure.Matias,as the new captain,have proved his determination,fired up the team with a fantastic goal at 78,and Bobo led us to victory afterwards.On the other hand,Tello and Holosko seemed unefficient.Tello could settle in left-back position,but Holosko is a forward,and I have doubts about limiting him in right-wing.He can orient better near Bobo,as Bobo is a target striker and finisher,Holosko is creative,paceful and has dribbling and crossing abilities,and this couple may work out much better than Nobre-Bobo couple.

Some highlights from the match;

Another point of attention should be taken to Serdar Özkan.After he sub-in for Aydın Karabulut,he get Besiktas in action.He also stated to press that

it is not important for me to play in right wing,left wing or being sidelined,the only important thing is Besiktas’ victory,and with a great comeback,we have done that.That was such important thing for us.I respect all decisions of Ertuğrul Sağlam,and I never feel reluctant if he even doesnt take me to the squad,whatever he tells me to do,I’ll do it as best as I can.

Very good job.He plays well,and he is not acting flattered and cynic.His behaviour is a great example for all youngsters.Serdar Özkan is continously improving his abilities since he called into Besiktas A Squad,and it is obvious that he is a kind of player who is aware of the special conditions of being a player of Besiktas JK.Gratz.

Last of first post,the unsporting opporturnities after the game was such inappropable.One of the Antalyaspor fans get stabbed,and the thing ironic is,he was stabbed by another Antalyaspor fan.Stupidity.Besiktas’ famous fan group,Çarşı,was on the act,and its quite good that they stand still.I dont know what Antalyaspor fans are trying to prove,but stabbing fans,throwing items to Yıldırım Demirören and swering is not a proof of being a good fan group.Shame.Never forget that,throwing something to the president of Besiktas JK,is throwing that to Besiktas JK own,and;
