Erman Toroğlu: Fenerbahçe, Trabzonspor ve Kante Hakkında Bomba Açıklamalar
Following a recent Süper Lig match between Fenerbahçe and Gençlerbirliği, veteran Turkish football analyst Erman Toroğlu offered a candid assessment of the game and the broader state of the club.
Internal Concerns at Fenerbahçe
Toroğlu addressed an ongoing investigation related to his commentary, stating, “You shouldn’t touch the powerful. We’ve been dealing with this since morning. Anyone who wants to connect can connect. We are open to everyone.” He then focused on the future leadership of Fenerbahçe, noting current President Sadettin Saran intends to step down in May.
According to Toroğlu, influential figures within Fenerbahçe have indicated Mehmet Ali Aydınlar as a potential successor. While acknowledging Aydınlar’s past involvement in a “shike olayı” (match-fixing scandal), Toroğlu suggested This represents history. He questioned why key figures within the club aren’t collaborating, stating, “These people can’t sit down at the table? They need to do this to avoid wishing they had.”
Upcoming Challenges and Player Evaluations
Toroğlu believes the true test for Fenerbahçe lies ahead, predicting a “tactic savaşı” (tactical battle) in their upcoming match against Trabzonspor. He also suggested Fenerbahçe should prioritize the Süper Lig over European competitions. He affirmed the penalty awarded to Fenerbahçe during the match was a correct decision, but disputed a penalty claim made by Gençlerbirliği.
He praised Oğulcan Ülgün’s actions, stating the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) should award him next week. Toroğlu expressed reservations about the significant investment in N’Golo Kante, questioning the value of signing an older player, stating, “I wouldn’t pay this much for a player of that age… Their grandchildren are playing football. Are we saying anything about Asensio?”
“Kolunu şöyle yapma” (Don’t do your arm like that)
Toroğlu reiterated his agreement with the referees regarding the penalty decision, adding, “Don’t do your arm like that!” He also noted Gençlerbirliği is a newly formed team with limited financial resources, presenting a favorable matchup for Fenerbahçe. He again emphasized the importance of the upcoming Trabzonspor match.
