I was expecting Zaha not to be able to play but it looks like my source was wrong about him. He was still new around here of course and he would need some time to adapt to the league and the team both. First of all I must admit that I didn't like Galatasaray defense in this match too. Kayserispor were able to find quite many goal chances one of which hit the post.
Galatasaray were able to create many dangerous attacks as usual but the problem was with finishing. Icardi was in the match in the second half and found 2 big goal chances. But he also wasted both of headers.
This isn't an ideal start for them but I believe they will improve their performance by the upcoming matches.

Galatasaray-Kayserispor match ended 0-0. As I said in the past days, there may be loss of points in the league for three bigs.
I have to admit that I didn't expect Galatasaray to start the league with a point loss. However, the Galatasaray players were generally not good in this match, but I liked Bakambu's performance. He didn't play static in a match where his teammates were very bad. Also, as a passing station, he challenged the opposing team's defense with his individual efforts. Okan Buruk made the right change by bringing Icardi on in the second half but Bakambu should have stayed on. Even after Zaha came on, Bakambu should have stayed on the pitch. He should have preferred to take more risks with his substitutions when the game was still drawn 0-0. Anyway, we are still at the beginning of the season so such a result can be considered normal.
First games are not to be overreacted if you ask me. I could make a scene and go mad about the European games because we need the money and need to be in the UCL groups one way or another, there is no way around it and we have to get that money to be able to say the transfers were worth it and we could pay them. However, if we are talking about league games then I can be a lot more calmer because we have 38 games, which means we have 37 more games to play, no need to overreact on the first game. By that logic Bayern should fire Tuchel right away after first game was a loss. It will get better, we are going to be much better than this given enough time.

I can't wait for start of our league. I plan to watch Trabzonspor-Antalyaspor match this week. I checked odds, 1.51 for Trabzonspor win, 3.50 for draw and 3.93 for Antalyaspor win. I think odds favoring Trabzonspor is bit exeggarated. Trabzonspor nearly all new transfers are injured. Antalyaspor lost their best striker but defence line and midfield structure is nearly same. As weather is hot and players are not ready, draw is very very possible in this match.
I was sadly proven wrong as Trabzonspor won the match with just 1 goal. But still pretty sure many gamblers hit correct bets with this match as Antalyaspor's new striker is probably having adaption problems. Trabzonspor didn't play well. Especially after 55-60 minutes Trabzonspor's performance was drastically lowered. Trabzonspor is definitely not looking good competitor to big 3 teams to win title. Trabzon's bench is pretty below average even. Antalyaspor probably become middle rank team again tho.They are back at top 10 if I am not wrong (need to check this again to make sure) and I would say that even 9th is possible as well by the looks of it. This would mean that if Trabzonsport ends up with being top 4, then they could end up going to Europe and have a better return financially and do great job as well for sure.
I don't think that Zaniolo is injured now. Sometimes websites show some players like that but actually main reason behind is completely different. This is one of those example. Zaniolo has a quite big probability to leave Galatasaray this summer. Because according to reports Galatasaray are having issues with the Champions League FFP rules now.
If this is true then they need to work this out and reach a safe level before qualifying for the group stage. Otherwise they might need to face punishments later on.
Therefore a couple of players are likely to be sold this summer and Zaniolo is one of them now I'm afraid.

It is time for Galatasaray to start the season in the Turkish Super League as well. They are playing away against Kayserispor today first. Zaha and Zaniolo both aren't expected to play for now due to injuries according to this source. But Galatasaray should still be able to do a really good work in this match to have a solid start.
Zaniolo is not playing because his transfer is on the agenda. But I think they are making statements to the press that he is injured. There are reports that Aston Villa and Juventus want to sign him.
Galatasaray will play away against Kayserispor tonight. Kayserispor has a transfer ban. They could not make a transfer this season. Moreover, their good players like Emrah Başsan, Mario Gavranovic and Bernard Mensah left the team. On the other hand, Galatasaray played 3 official matches in the UEFA Champions League. And they have signed quality players like Zaha, Icardi, Angelino and Tete. Galatasaray will be the favorites in this match.
Fenerbahce have reached an agreement for Fred finally. After having medical tests he is expected to sign for them officially.
The move is a good one for him because he was already a second team player and the signing of Mason Mount would only make things worse for him. Heard so much about Fred when he was at Shakter Dotnesk but when he came to Manchester United he didn't leave up to expectations. I would say he didn't have a fantastic time at United, though he did step up at times when you least expected. It's a new league, it's a fresh start and a new challenge and I wish him the best of luck. Galatasaray is going to start their campaign in next few hours against Kayserispor even their start of this season is impressive, and they are having good wins in Champions League qualifying games with two wins and one draw and their winning streak is also six in Super League as they were ended their last campaign with the win of the title. Even their few new signings are not joining them in this first match, but things are looking good, and they have clear chance for the good start hopefully we will have won for them even in their last two visits they were not able to won here.
Federico Bernardeschi transfer claim was put forward for Beşiktaş. Probably they think of him as right wing because Ghezzal's chronic injuries are endless. I think this transfer would be very wrong because Bernardeschi's goal and assist statistics are incredibly low. The winger who will come to Beşiktaş should be able to both score and assist. Otherwise, the bee that doesn't make honey has no place in the team.
When Bernardeschi was transferred to Juventus for 40 million Euro, there were high hopes for him, but he always fell short of expectations. He didn't play badly in Canada last season, but he doesn't seem to be at Beşiktaş level.

As of yesterday, the Super League started.The first match of the season started with Trabzonspor-Antalyaspor.Trabzonspor won the first match with a goal in the first minutes of the match and started the league with 3 points.If we look at the overall match, it was a match in which both teams found plenty of positions and both teams wanted to keep the ball at their feet.Trabzonspor won with the advantage of playing at home.
Today, Galatasaray is the only one of the big 3 to play. Galatasaray will start the season away to Kayserispor and a win is expected to start the season well. I think Galatasaray will win with plenty of goals if there is no setback.

Great games today in the Turkish super lig, the Turkish champion would be hoping to defend their title in the new season and starting the campaign with a win would be a good start. The game most football enthusiasts would definitely be looking at is the Kayserispor vs Galatasaray game, it's too bad new signings like Zaha and Zaniolo are on the sidelines because of injuries but Galatasaray still have a very good squad and I'm predicting an away win.

Galatasaray have started the season early because of the Champions League qualifiers. They are supposed to be much readier than Kayserispor to this season. I wonder whether Okan Buruk will prefer Bakambu in the starting eleven again. I would like to see Icardi instead as soon as possible. I expect Galatasaray to win today.

Süper League starts tonight. I will watch the Trabzonspor-Antalyaspor match too.
As you said Antalyaspor sold their best player. We will see how their new striker is tonight.
I haven't followed Trabzonspor much, most probably this match will end in a draw.
Trabzonspor after a dissapointing last season will try and make better results this season. They are the favorites in this match but i dont like the first round because anything can happen so will just bet on Over 2.5 goals because i think we will see a very good opening to the league.As you said Antalyaspor sold their best player.

Trabzonspor opened the match early and when i saw 1-0 in 8th minute i was thinking it was gonna be a goal fest but ended up just staying like that. There were too many goal chances but they just cannot score. Wierd from so many chances that the results stays the same.

The early games of most leagues do not really matter, because teams do not show their true talents right away with the first whistle. It requires a bit of time before most teams get better.
There are few reasons for that, first of all it's the fact that most players did take a break and haven't had a proper 90 minute game, they trained a bit, but also they had a huge break, usually as long as 3-4 weeks break, and then a bit of training and friendly but you can rest during friendly games and nobody cares. Whereas, at the start it's going to be like full on attack mode if you rest, hence you need to be careful. Also there has been transfers, players gone and players came, so there will be some adjustment period for that as well.

It is really interesting. Galatasaray have been after him for a long time. They made an official offer for him as well. It was like they were going to sign him most probably. But Fenerbahce suddenly intervened by a better offer and stole him from their hands. It is like a retaliation by Fenerbahce to Galatasaray after losing Zaha to them. In addition to Fred transfer Cengiz Under is also expected to join them soon. Fenerbahce have also started to become very active in the market these days.

I'm also looking forward to this match. I think it will be a low tempo match because it's the first match of the season, so I don't think it will be an enjoyable match. I don't think Trabzonspor's squad is at the level to fight for the championship. I think they will disappoint their fans this season as well. But I don't want to have a definite opinion without watching this match. That's why I want to watch this match. My only positive comment about Antalyaspor would be Nuri Şahin. He broke many club records at Antalyaspor. He has limited opportunities but he is doing wonders.
