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.

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.

Süper League season starts tomorrow. An exciting league awaits us.

The first game of the season is Trabzonspor-Antalyaspor.
There is Kayserispor-Galatasaray game on Saturday.

I wonder how the first matches will turn out.

The transfer season is finally over. The Turkish Super League season opens. Both Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe transferred quite credible footballers like Tadic, Dzeko, Icardi, Zaha. There are also rumors that solid football players such as Dominik Livaković, Cengiz Ünder, Paredes and Fred will come to Istanbul for Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. I'm especially curious about Turkish Super League this season.

Yes finally the new season is starting in a day. I'm especially curious about Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. They have been in a race to make transfers for a while. We have seen teams even competing against each other for some specific players also. For example Fred can be given as a live example now.

Because Fabrizio Romano said that Fenerbahce were closing in on signing Fred. You know Galatasaray have been chasing this transfer for a long time. Now it is like Fenerbahce are trying to answer Galatasaray's stealing Zaha from their hands.

Galatasaray don't look like they will improve the offer they made in July. It is up to the player to make a choice between money and the Champions League.

We are finally starting. In the first week of the league Trabzonspor will play Antalyaspor at home. Trabzonspor coach Nenad Bjelica has made important transfers to the team. Tonio Teklic, Filip Benkovic, Joaquin Fernandez, Dimitros Kourbelis were transferred to Trabzonspor under his directives. We will see important changes in Trabzonspor this season. On the other hand, Antalyaspor sold their best player Haji Wright to Coventry for 9 Million Euros. Also, they sold Fernando to Al Jazira for 1.5 Million Euros. They strengthened their squad with Assombalonga and Kaluzinski. But they might not be ready for the league yet. Because they made these transfers very recently. My favorite will be Trabzonspor in this match. But I will never bet on the first week matches.

The new season in the Super League is opening. Trabzonspor enters this season without a good preparation. Who was transferred with high hopes after Orsic, suffered a serious injury in the camp, the morale in the club is down. The lack of some important players in Trabzonspor's defense and midfield and the pre match injuries have caused the team to be not fully ready and the alternatives have diminished. Inevitably, Trabzonspor will not have a good start to the new season.

Antalyaspor is starting this season with important transfers. I think the new transfers will make a good contribution to Antalyaspor with the opening match. Antalya will be one of the clubs to follow this season. Antalyaspor's loss of some important players may change the balance but the statistics of Antalyaspor and Trabzonspor's matches may lead to a balanced opening match. I think both teams will score goals in the opening match of the season and a draw seems likely.

tomorrow the games finally start, the first game will be Trabzonspor against Antalyaspor, last season was not good for Trabzonspor who finished in 6th place and did not have access to European competitions, so I believe that Trabzonspor this season will be more motivated to that they don't repeat the same disaster that happened last season and for that they need to start the league with a victory, Nenad Bjelica who took over in April at a time when the team was coming from bad results, managed to stabilize the team and in those games friendlies Trabzonspor did very well to the point of having only 2 defeats and managed to score many goals, this shows that their attack has improved a lot, of course friendly games

the teams that do well in the friendly matches when they play serious games start having another performance, that's because in the friendly matches they played against very weak teams while in the league they are playing against very strong opponents, but in any case Trabzonspor will have a shortage of Mislav Orsic who had an injury, as far as I could find out it was a ruptured ligament, the list of embezzlements doesn't stop there, they will also have embezzlement of the following players Joaquin Fernandez , Huseyin Turkmen , Manolis Siopis and Emirhan Zaman and it is in doubt what Filip Benkovic.

while Mahmoud Trezeguet, Edin Visca and Eren Elmali will be able to play, they did well in the friendly matches, on the other hand we have Antalyaspor who will be missing Britt Assombalonga, but they will have the following players who will be able to debut in this game Zymer Bytyqi, Jakub Kaluzinski, Adam Buksa and Gerrit Holtmann. with that I see Trabzonspor winning this game, I know that relying on friendly games to analyze a team's performance is not a good choice, but in this case as it will be the first league game so friendly games are the only data in the which I have to base myself to measure the performance of the team

Assombalonga made his name with Adana Demirspor. After Adana Demirspor, he was transferred to Watford but he couldn't stay there for long. Now he will start the season with Antalyaspor. 6 years ago he was transferred to Middlesbrough for 17 million euros and I think he can be productive at Antalyaspor.
The sale of Haji Wright for a high transfer fee will allow Antalyaspor to make more quality signings. This could be a start for them.

Britt Assombalonga transferred to Antalyaspor. Antalyaspor management filled his place with the big money from the sale of Haji Wright. Assombalonga is a striker whose goal statistics are pretty good. Since he has previous experience in Turkish league, he will not have adaptation problems. If he shows his performance in Middlesbrough, it will be a big win for Antalyaspor. Antalyaspor needs to set up a more assertive team this season and play for the top 8 place.

Leandro Paredes speculations are arising again. As far as I know Galatasaray made a couple of offers for him but he rejected all of them as he didn't want to go there. But interestingly there are still news like he is likely to join them. Weren't Galatasaray after Fred these days? Manchester United are willing to sell him this summer so Galatasaray should take advantage of this situation. Fred is also a solid player for this league just as Paredes would be. Hence Galatasaray should decide upon their main target and go for him.

Fulham have also had some interest in Fred so Galatasaray had better hurry if they really want to strengthen the midfield.

I feel like that is how they have considered all the time because nobody really took a chance for the long term, and built something that is sustainable. Any team owner would know that spending a lot of money for a single season will not make you rich, but as a team if you spend that money on something that will make more money in the future, that would be a lot better for you.

Look at Galatasaray, they realized quickly that they can't just spend money on players, and instead they started to take out loans to buy lands to build houses, this is a football club that makes money from construction, why? They can't pay 10 million euro to Icardi by just selling jerseys, they need something else. Smaller clubs should do a smaller version of income maker like this.

Fenerbahce seems to have slowed down on the transfer front. I wonder what exactly Fenerbahce will do now that they have slowed down the pace and are negotiating hard on salaries and wages. Having spent the transfer season with good sales and still receiving good offers for their players, I think Fenerbahce should now speed up the transfer business. Fenerbahce should get the team ready for the start of the league. The mistake Ali koç made during his presidency was that he waited until the last day every year to make cheap transfers.

It will not go well because there the circulation of transfers is so low that there will be little chance for Anatolian club to develop or improve their financial problems.
It is better to use the loan method so that young players go to big clubs with the aim of having better experience, more qualified playing skills and also having a more popular name so that when players are loaned back to Anatolia they can sell higher price.

But it should be noted that doing all of this is not easy and there are several risks that can harm a football club and Anatolia itself must really have the courage to take action and accept all the risks involved if you want to become a club that is ranked above.

Beşiktaş has started to increase its pace in the transfer market. They are about to complete the transfer of Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain. Beşiktaş was one of the teams that had a bad transfer season, but we can say that they have also accelerated as a result of the rumors in the last days. Jackson Muleka also seems to be on loan. The Metz team is expected to sign the player on loan with an option to buy.

Antalyaspor made huge gains through made with Coventry about Haji Wright. 9 million euro is great amount of money for Anatolian clubs. I always wish that Anatolian teams would buy rather half known or unknown young players to sell them later on. Competition on this should be improved otherwise Anatolian teams stay middle rank teams. They need to improve their financial structure through letting their talented players to strike position at bigger European leagues.

You guys need to remember that it's not all about your teams doing better, it's also about other leagues teams doing worse as well. So by assumption if you win all the games but they also win all the games, then that doesn't change anything at all. If you lose all your games but win just one, and they lose all their games without winning any, you are still doing better.

The results will not be for next season neither, it will be year after that, so it's going to matter on the long term. As long as we keep seeing this type of investment to the clubs and transfers, then we are going to definitely see this league grow, I knew about it because of betting, but I am getting more interested because of big names there.

They must come up with a feasible resolution. First of all they should try to give money to the players in a single currency. It does not matter where the players are from. They will receive money as Euro or Turkish lira. And but that is going to create problems.

The best solution is that The salary of every player is going to be decided in euro and those players who want to be paid in Turkish lira are going to have two convert euro to Turkish lira. And because if a player is paid in euro and the other is paid in Turkish lira, it is always going to have difference between themselves.

So just send the money as euro to the bank account of the player and let them decide what to do with it. That is if it is actually possible. I don’t know how the banking system works in Turkey. But I am pretty sure that this is achievable.

Fenerbahce are once again in the thick of the transfer season. Lens team wants Michy Batshuayi. Offering 10 million euros in wages, Lens are likely to sign Batshuayi. For Fenerbahce, it is obvious that the fact that he will be transferred for a good fee can be used as an alternative for the team to make better transfers. I think Batshuayi should be considered when such a sum is on offer. He should be transferred for a good transfer fee as it will also reduce the salary burden.  If Batshuayi leaves, a better striker can be bought instead.

Cenk Tosun was agreed for a new contract at the end of last season, but the deal was in Euro and the Euro has risen sharply since then. Therefore, the new contract couldn't be signed because it was too costly. Cenk Tosun rightfully wants more money because there is a huge gap between Aboubakar's salary and his.
I support paying Turkish players in Turkish Lira in Beşiktaş and in the Turkish league, but there is a big gap with foreign players. The Turkish currency is losing more and more value every day and this situation creates problems in every field.
