But the defense still needs improvement that's for sure. A left-back signing is urgent. I've heard about Javi Galan to be linked with us. I hope that's true because he would be much better than Kohn - especially in defense.

Honestly I don't believe in Galatasaray to become champions this season for now. This game doesn't give me big hopes. We are still lacking in defense above all else. We also need to be more effective in the attacking area. We should always prefer a passing-based game plan. I mean no matter who the competitor is. I really miss our old days about it...

Fenerbahçe had a comfortable win against Rizespor. Mourinho's change in the playing system had a big impact on this. In this match, Mourinho corrected the team's midfield formation, the formation of the team and put the team in rhythm as they started to return to the system of last year. However, Fenerbahce fans shouldn't get into an early championship mood based on this game. Because they make the same mistake every year.
They criticized the Rizespor goalkeeper too much and he had a bad game. Rizespor coach Palut should have taken goalkeeper Gökhan Akkan out of the game. Gökhan was very demoralized after conceding bad goals and the fans started booing him. Maybe if he had taken him off, this game could have ended with a different score.

I would guess it is not about a single game, there is no reason to think about it that way. Last season Fenerbahce ended up with a victory over Galatasaray, still lost the league, hell they lost it with 99 points, which is insane when you think about it because Galatasaray had 102 points.
Both sides blame each other for being corrupt and hiring the refs but if 99 was scam, then so is 102 and if 102 is scam then so is 99, I feel like both teams were just miles better than everyone else, nothing more, there could be some mistakes, but that happens in every league, better teams get a leeway and usually get favourable calls, because they are the big teams. You think a game between City and Luton was fairly reffed last season? Of course not, same thing applies here.
Fenerbahce or Galatasaray, whoever wins this game in week six, will not have the championship guaranteed, one game doesn't decide who wins, and I doubt they will get that many points, so there will be a lot more losses. This is why I think one game is even less significant this season, it will not matter and there is a good chance that the game ends in a draw, both teams will not try too hard to win, they will just end up relaxing as much as possible and not take big risks.

I remember that Fenerbahçe could not defeat Galatasaray in their home field in the last 4 years.
The most important point is that they make a fuss by calling it "World Derby", but it has nothing to do with derby, it's just called derby, I don't even care about the world.
In my opinion, these are matches where there is constant fighting, tension is high, and nothing happens in terms of football.
I don't know what the match score will be, but after a real match, the most talked about referee is the referee.
In soccer world, this is one of the most fierce derby we have with in 2024 we have these two teams faced each other two times once Galatasaray awarded by 3–0 and second time we have won for the Fenerbahçe at the home of Galatasaray, so things are surely challenging for the both teams, but I have strong feeling this time we will be having Fenerbahçe at the better side because they are doing good job and having good strong offensive which can give them good chance of win and this could be important for them as well if they want to bring themselves to the top of Super League table.The most important point is that they make a fuss by calling it "World Derby", but it has nothing to do with derby, it's just called derby, I don't even care about the world.

Last time Fenerbahçe won at home against Galatasaray in 2022 with now it's more than two years, but now things are going pretty interesting for them and they are having good chance of bringing themselves into good chance for win and having their first title in years.
Fenerbahce - Galatasaray
This will be a game where Fenerbahce will need to win if they want to become champions. It will be a game that will measure Fenerbahce's strength
The most toughest match for Fenerbahce will be on the 22 of September against Galatasaray, that match will certainly be the most important match of that day because everybody would loved to watch the match because it means so much to each of the team and besides Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are the strongest club on the Turkish league, so anybody that wins the match automatically have the highest opportunity of wining the league, so actually considering the performance of Fenerbahce and there current position on the table if they win the match this season trophy will become theirs. This will be a game where Fenerbahce will need to win if they want to become champions. It will be a game that will measure Fenerbahce's strength

If we talk about the derby, Fenerbahçe is playing better and more prepared right now. Some of the players in Galatasaray are showing a decrease in performance, everyone has seen this.
Abdülkerim's performance has decreased, Barış Alper is also decreasing.
I think Sara's performance will increase until this match, the team is slowly adapting.
I hope it will be a good match and we will enjoy watching it.

Hatayspor lost 3-2 away to Antalyaspor. Hatayspor paid a heavy penalty for being down to 10 men in a game they led 2-0 at half time. Strandberg scored 2 goals in the first half and although they were in the lead, they were unlucky to return from this away match without any points. Antalyaspor also failed to capitalize on a penalty in the first half. Hatayspor, down to 10 men early in the second half after Kilama was red carded, lost control of the match and conceded 3 goals. Antalyaspor managed to get their first win in the league under Alex.
It was a very comfortable match for Fenerbahçe tonight. Rizespor is very bad, their goalkeepers are very bad.
They conceded 100% wrong goals in the second and third goals. Rizespor fans are already protesting goalkeeper Gökhan.
Fred scored 3 goals tonight and made a hat trick.
After few disappointing results now Fenerbahçe back into business they were on top against Rizespor with having 5 goals thanks to Fred who have hat-trick and Dzeko making his mark as well with his third goal in three games no doubt we have worst ever performance from the Gokhan who captain of the club is as well he has bad day which bring the worst result for him and his club as well now things looking pretty much on target for the Fenerbahçe which is also facing consequences for losing their chance of entry into Champions League.They conceded 100% wrong goals in the second and third goals. Rizespor fans are already protesting goalkeeper Gökhan.
Fred scored 3 goals tonight and made a hat trick.
Fenerbahçe won their most comfortable victory today. They scored 5 goals in this match, teams like Rizespor have the squad quality to do this. The goals conceded by goalkeeper Gökhan Akkan in Rizespor became the agenda today, it seems very strange how he made such simple mistakes. Rizespor needs to send this goalkeeper off immediately.
José Mourinho could be most relieved person after having win like this because he was having not good time after having poor runs in early games and having early exit from the qualification of the Champions League as well now due to no matches for Galatasaray and Besiktas we have Fenerbahçe at the top of league table for few weeks which is good for them and their fans. It was a very comfortable match for Fenerbahçe tonight. Rizespor is very bad, their goalkeepers are very bad.

With the odds they gave Fenerbahçe you will hardly believe that they will be able to score this much, however from there performance and the number of goals they scored we can tell that they put so much seriousness on that match because they were not happy with the draw they played on there first match against goztepe because they had the opportunity to win goztepe but they feel so reluctant after scoring the two goals, perhaps they were feeling that there was no way goztepe will equalize but to there greatest surprise goztepe hit them when they did not expect, so coming back to this there match yesterday they were very focus and even when they knew that they have already won but they were still putting so pressure. They conceded 100% wrong goals in the second and third goals. Rizespor fans are already protesting goalkeeper Gökhan.
Fred scored 3 goals tonight and made a hat trick.
This was a game where Fenerbahce could have scored more than 5 goals. After Fenerbahce scored the first goal, they started to waste many good opportunities that could have resulted in many goals. Fenerbahce's defense also left a lot of space and only didn't concede a goal because the opponent had attackers without much skill and wasted good opportunities. After Fenerbahce scored the second goal, they also had another good opportunity that could have scored the third goal, but they wasted it. Fortunately, they had more opportunities later and this time they didn't make a mistake and scored the third goal. After the third goal, Fenerbahce stopped wasting opportunities. They scored the fourth goal and the fifth goal. Fenerbahce's victory was already guaranteed.
Fenerbahce's next 3 games:
Fenerbahce - Alanyaspor
This will be a game where Fenerbahce has a chance to win
Kasinpasa - Fenerbahce
This will be a game where Fenerbahce has a chance to win

Hatayspor started the away match fast and were 2-0 up at half-time. Carlos Strandberg scored both goals. Antalyaspor missed a penalty just before half time, they would have been more motivated going into the second half if the score was 1-2, but this missed penalty lowered the morale of the team.
Carlos Strandberg is a name that has not attracted much attention, he scored 8 goals last season. He is doing good things for Hatayspor in the league. They are lucky to have him. It seems difficult for Antalyaspor to turn the game around from here.

Beşiktaş started the season very well. In fact, transfers like Ciro Immobile and Rafa Silva immediately caught everyone's attention. Everyone was expecting something, but I must admit that I didn't expect them to turn into such a good team. All the new signings adapted to the team immediately and contributed to the score. I think this is a success and the lion's share of this success belongs to the coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst. He managed to turn a ragtag team into a good team in a short period of time...
Currently the Turkish teams has made a lot of recruitments of european players with star labels so it is not surprising if we see more competitive competition will occur this season in the super lig, as well as Besiktas who this season has recruited 7 new players to compete again in the championship trophy which has been dominated by Fenerbache and Galatasaray so far, their journey this season went quite well after winning the Super Cup trophy by defeating Galatasaray with a landslide score of 5-0, so I think that the victory indicates that Besiktas has the ability to be a title contender this season, especially since so far they have started the league with consecutive victories over their opponents, but for now Besiktas must focus on the European Qualifying match against Lugano in a few days to prove that they are worthy to consider as a title challenger not only in the domestic league but also in the Europa League this season. 
I think Rizespor vs Fenerbahçe is one of the most interesting matches of the week. Fenerbahçe started the season with 1 win and 1 draw under Mourinho. But the football they played did not satisfy the fans. They need to improve themselves. They are not at the expected level at the moment. On the other hand, Rizespor made good signings like Ali Sowe and Hadziahmetovic. Their offensive line is very good. They have players like Sowe, Akintola and Zeqiri. I expect a surprise result in this match, but I will bet on both teams to score.

Beşiktas saw what their rivals Fenerbahce did by signing a very experienced manager like Jose Mourinho and knew that for them to stand a chance of competing for the league title this season against Fenerbahce and reigning champions Galatasaray, they must strengthen the squad and that they did. Ciro Immobile and Rafa Silva are two experienced quality players that can effect significant positive change in any team they find themselves and that they've done at their current Turkish club. It's still very early to predict how the league is gonna finish but if you ask me, I consider Beşiktas a strong contender this season.
Sivasspor lost to Eyüpspor at home.Eyüpspor, the new team of the league, managed to get a good win by defeating an important opponent on the road.The fact that Eyüpspor has taken the lead now, rather than the fact that the team is new to the league, shows that Arda Turan and his team have really built a good squad.It will be good for them to ensure the continuity of this performance in the following weeks.The fact that they are doing so well in the first weeks of course shows that they can adapt to the league early.
Yesterday, another newly promoted team Bodrum FK managed to get their first win in the league by beating Konyaspor, one of the formidable teams of the league, 3-1 at home.

When van Bronckhorst was first brought to Beşiktaş, there were so many people doubting his performance. Because he hasn't made a big name as a coach yet. But he is really doing a good job so far.
Beşiktaş has been the best about transfers. I bet nobody expected these attacker signings to make a big impact this quick. Rafa Silva and Immobile have already become the best performers.I'm favouring Beşiktaş for the Super League trophy this season. Their game is way better than Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. Lugano coach also underlined their fast attacking football unlike Fenerbahçe's game.
