Game no. 19 in the Turkish League.
We beat Konyaspor 1-0. Ozan Tufan scored a wonderful goal to help us win this game. Our defense was great. We looked solid in the midfield even though towards the end of the game Konyaspor were peppering shots towards our goal and we showed a lot of resistance. This was a solid performance overall. Hopefully we can pick up good results like these.

Game no. 20 in the Turkish League.
We drew 0-0 against Basaksehir. It was a boring draw. We didn't have many chances to score and it was the same for Basaksehir. We defended quite well in this game.
However we need to pick up maximum points in the next few games to create positive momentum.

Try changing those two fullbacks to wingbacks. I would leave it on defend duty or move one to support. I would also push one of those two DMs into the midfield to form a 3 and encourage the other two to push wide. You could also drop of those two strikers into the hole between the midfield and front and turn him into a false nine or shadow striker or even an attacking midfielder.

I cannot see the instructions so for now this is all I can advise.
 
Ferhat Kutlu is now injured and will be out for 5-6 days. Remzi Koprulu is injured and will be out for 3-6 days.

Game no. 21 in the Turkish League
We beat Boluspor 3-0. What an amazing win this was. We created a lot of chances and were very positive throughout the whole game. The defense and midfield were magnificent. Michael Gregoritsch opened the scoring. And then it was Simon Kjaer with two goals, one of which was a sensational freekick to seal the win for us. C'mon, lets keep the positive momentum going with good results. We move on to the next game.

Game no. 22 in the Turkish League
We beat Antalyaspor 4-2. We attacked very well. Michael Gregoritsch and Enes Unal scored 2 goals each to help us win the game. Batuhan Altintas and Sinan Gumus scored goals for them. But we held on for the win and were very impressive especially in the second half. We move on to the next game. And hopefully we see a good performance.

Europa League 1st Knockout Round Leg 1
We drew 0-0 against Porto. It was an okay game. We had a few chances, albeit most of them were from distance. Porto looked like the likely team to win based on the quality of their chances but luckily they did not take any and we made sure that they did not score an away goal. We look good for the return leg, and hopefully we win and get past them.

Europa League 1st Knockout Round Leg 2
We lost 1-0 to Porto. This was a very boring game. We barely created any chances. Andre Silva scored a goal for them to help Porto win. We were alright defensively though. We need to improve attacking wise. The loss in this game means we are out of the Europa League. And now we have only the league to focus on. We move on to the next game and hopefully there is a better performance.

Game no. 24 in the Turkish League
We drew 3-3 against Gaziantepspor. This was a very entertaining game. Michael Gregoritsch scored the opener. And then Hamidou Traore and Ricardo Almeida scored to put them ahead. Then Gregoritsch equalized again. After that Daniel Kolar scored a penalty to put them ahead. And then a wonder goal from distance by Lasse Sobiech made sure we scored the equalizer. I am happy with the performance considering how the game has gone. We move on to the next game. And hopefully there are better performances.

Game no 25 in the Turkish League
We lost 2-1 to Akhisar Bid.
Deniz Turuc scored twice to win the game for them. This was a disappointing loss, no doubt about it. Michael Gregoritsch scored a consolation for us. We defended very poorly. We have got to be better and move on from this disappointing result. Hopefully the next few games go better.
