First of all, I'd like to thank Ernesto for reaching out to me, and sharing with me all the data he had on Turkish players. I've read some posts about what happened during his mandate, so I'm aware that he had one or more farms.
We had something similar happening in Serbia, where our u21 NT coach was banned for making farms. In my opinion, making farms is not the way to go. National teams don't belong to one manager, but to the entire community, and I'm sure most managers don't won't their NT to get results on a “dirty way”.
That being said, Ernesto reached out to help me, and I'm grateful to him for that. Even though there's a program called
NT scout, which NT coaches use to find players, the program cannot find players from merged nations of Asia/Europe, so I really needed the previous database to see if there's someone from these leagues that would be interesting for the NT, and it turned out that there was a great player playing in a Japanese team, that the NT scout couldn't find.
Anyway, I don't wanna focus on the past anymore, but on the present and the future. European Championship starts today, it's being held in the Netherlands, and we're playing against Macedonia first. For the past 14 seasons they're being coached by one of Macedonians best managers
Dimac. Their biggest win in the past few seasons was against Italy in season 56
(63677).
We will start the championship with these 10 players:
1) Erol Ergül 31yo, 69 games for NT
(46956561)2) Kayahan Miran 30yo, 46 games for NT
(47264294)3) Kürsat Rikkat 34yo, 81 games for NT
(45621606)4) Eray Hemengül 30yo, 55 games for NT
(47264018)5) Tunç Akalin 28yo, 16 games for NT
(47881512)6) Mesrur Titiz 29yo, 26 games for NT
(47576525)7) Burak Mecdi 31yo, 0 games for NT
(46958389)8) Mert Kezer 34yo, 110 games for NT
(45622230)9) Sefer Mansiz 27yo, 9 games for NT
(48192694)10) Isik Gül 27yo, 1 games for NT
(48189573)I'm happy that most of the key players are in Turkey teams, that's very reassuring. Because of the poor game shape, for today's match we cannot count on:
1) Muzaffer Murat Bingün 32yo, 52 games for NT
(46648773)2) Semih Oluk 29yo, 41 games for NT
(47577115)3) Ali Arif Soral 32yo, 51 games for NT
(46649612)Once their GS improves, they'll be part of the team as well. As for the remaining 5 spots, it will probably be decided between these players:
1) Ferda Akten 26yo, 3 games for NT
(48515419)2) Cem Ötügen 32yo, 0 games for NT
(46652029)3) Vefa Apak 25yo, 0 games for NT
(48804774)4) Musa Ferzan 29yo, 0 games for NT
(47884530)5) Osman Kutluay 34yo, 51 games for NT
(45622555)6) Renan Faruk 27yo, 0 games for NT
(48189081)7) Ahmet Billur 27yo, 0 games for NT
(48188725)8) Serkan Tanridag 32yo, 37 games for NT
(46649843)9) Önsal Karadüzen 34yo, 38 games for NT
(46340486)10) Emre Can Ortak 24yo, 0 games for NT
