Gospa nije bila na našoj strani

[–] Bolte_Racku@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Brozović was one of the best players on the team, what were you watching

[–] Artistic-Handle5018@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Honestly, the end of one great era for Croatia. Now, let's hope we at least qualify

[–] CrveniMarboro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Trpaju vas na Kosovu vise nego Srbe😂😂

[–] CrveniMarboro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Krovinovic >> Modric

[–] Strananach@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Issue is more the fact our top players like Oršić, Kramarić and Perišić were all injured

Oršić? He was a top player a year ago, and when he was, Dalić never played him.

Also Krama is selfish af and wank for us most of the time.

[–] xSyndicate58@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's the same at Galatasaray. Guy has huge talent, but 0 brain and situational awareness. Often makes dumb decisions unfortunately

Yes me too and then he got injured and the move to atalanta was also probably not the best

[–] PositiveDuck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nisam rekao da su oni zasluzili pobjedit nego da smo mi zasluzili izgubit. Nije nijedna ekipa zasluzila bodove veceras al oni su bar nekakav trud ulozili, nasi su igrali priko kurca cilu utakmicu.

[–] folieadeux6@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He’s great off ball and bad on the ball, but with Galatasaray the decision is “get the ball to Icardi” and he’s incredible at it.

[–] sittingduck__@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

In my opinion, Unal fits in perfectly. He was our target to replace Ramos, Schmidt definitely wanted that Kokcu-Unal link.

[–] folieadeux6@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I really wouldn’t say Samet Akaydin is our second best centerback lol

It’ll probably be Caglar on the right when he gets back

[–] ForwardIntern6254@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

İsmail Yüksek

Lets not devalue Abdülkerim's efforts here. They also have same points in sofascore (8.1)

[–] spritskoeken@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How many matches have Turkish teams played in England in those 177 years? Fifteen perhaps?

On the other hand, Man United pretty much plays in European competitions every year. So assuming that they play 10 European matches on average per season (five of which at home so 5 x 40 years), that'd result in United's unbeaten streak getting broken after roughly 200 matches.

[–] exblue@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Not true though. Beşiktaş beat Chelsea 0-2 in 2003. Galatasaray got their first win ever in England.

[–] folieadeux6@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

In the face of this level of racism we are children. This is a work of art.

[–] floridali@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Didn't you play a WC final and a semi final thanks to some of these players? Would you be able to be do this if you had other players instead of these?

[–] Caesar21Octavoian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Damn i thought he was 2 years older gtfo that's a horrible career move for a near 30 year old one but for a 25 y. old....

[–] folieadeux6@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wait Modric was born in a town called Modrici?

[–] spritskoeken@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Before you edited your comment, you had stated that Galatasaray beating Man United at Old Trafford was the first time a Turkish club won in England in 177 years.

You think you're a smartass don't you?

[–] cbuturk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

it was worded wrong and i fixed it. the same way you just edited your whole paragraph.

smartass is the one shoehorning their team's irrelevant victory with the most niche bit of tidbit and calling it pinnacle achievement of shattering deep runs lmfao.

[–] spritskoeken@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm not gonna get offended by obsessed people like you who feel the need to edit each of their comments.

[–] cbuturk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you feeling dramatic today huh. lmao

"stop fixing your posts! you're obsessed!!" as he types his 7th response to me.

get a grip weirdo, i worded it wrong and fixed it.

had nothing to do with you.

[–] nutelamitbutter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Mert is probably an upgrade over Ugurcan

[–] laki1986@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t know maybe try out a formation that doesn’t require a winger? Like a 532? That is completely on Dalić.

And should be noted it's only for EURO qualifiers

[–] _ArrozConPollo_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Our local cinema showed the turkey -croatia match. I remember going with my bigger brothers and friends. Everyone besides me and 2-3 people left the cinema after the 119 goal. I remember just everyone rushing in after our 120+1 goal to watch the penalties. That game is what got me hooked to football to this day.

For starters not play 4-3-3. It's perfectly reasonable to play with 3 at the back and 2 wingbacks.

[–] satellizerLB@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I still remember the big ass headlines for the newspapers the next day: SOĞUK DUŞ (COLD SHOWER)

[–] KidGoku1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can someone explain to me why a GK, knowing he's bad with coming out, still comes out of his line? Livas worst trait has to be when he comes out of his line. I remember a few months ago he saved a penalty at Zagreb and immediately, unneccesarily comes out and almost concedes. If he doesn't come out Turkey wouldn't have scored that most likely. Funny thing is Liva played a great match besides that mistake. I don't know if he can improve that aspect so maybe it's a valuable lesson for him and he stays on his line next time.
