Still, it turns out that the total failure at the European Championship 2020 is the main reason for his dismissal. Apparently the issue of his dismissal was discussed for some time, as he was not fired immediately after the championship, but the weak play of the national team in recent matches was the last impetus to this decision.
Turkey was pathetic during Euro 2021. They lost all their matches during the group stage, despite high expectations surrounding them. But then, they were placed in a very tough group along with Italy, Wales and Switzerland. The loss to Wales was least expected, but IMO they are one of the most underrated teams in international football. The match took place in Baku, which was more like a home ground for Turkey, but they still lost by a margin of 0-2. And this possibly sealed the fate of Şenol Güneş as the coach. The training limitations they have, and the lack of time with the players, among other internal factors, means that the national federations do not drop the coach right away in the first problems (even when it is clear that that coach will not give the team anything more ).
National coaches have a hard time. They get so much less time compared to the club coaches. I think national coaches have to stay idle for almost 9 to 10 months a year. And with what little time they get, it's hard to make up strategies around those players. Team chemistry is also a big issue over here. Though they are from the same country, but they get the time on the pitch altogether so less which effects them. That's why if countries don't have some start players, so can win matches with individual performances, it's hard for them to do better.
