    While it is true that some key players where missing, we have also sucked offensively for a very long time and our coach doesn’t seem to be the guy to change things.

    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.

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

    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.

    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?

    If the Perisic “handball” vs France in the 2018 World Cup final was a penalty, then the handball on Calhanoglu should’ve no doubt been a penalty too.

    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?

      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.

      How many top teams play with 3 centrebacks and wingbacks today? I think there’s a reason for that.

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