Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç, who was a guest of the Derin Futbol program broadcast on Beyaz TV, made important statements.
Here are Ali Koç’s statements…
“We’ve always approached with good intentions, but it doesn’t work out. Now it’s time to reveal it.”
Ahmet Cakar: “If you go back to election day, would you run again?”
Ali Koc: “Sometimes you lose when you win, sometimes you win when you lose. If we went back to that day, I would have waited another year. The troubled situation in the club has risen to the surface. We made serious financial and moral touches to make the ship float. I wish a trophy would come with those touches, but it didn’t happen. But from my childhood It’s been my dream ever since.”
“I don’t want to go into the subject of Aziz Yıldırım too much, he is not here. I wanted to go on the air together a lot, but it didn’t happen. We fought together terribly. If this happened to other clubs, they wouldn’t be able to stand up like Fenerbahçe. It shows how painful it is. I’m not responsible. Time heals everything.”
“We made a lot of changes in my first season. Then Ersun Hodja came and made touches. In my second season, when we came to the 22nd week, we were the biggest candidate for the championship. Then after the 22nd week, we were operated on. Then Erol Hoca came, we formed a good team. As you said, our 13-15 points were stolen. 4 teams became champions in 8 years, but even 1 of them is not Fenerbahce. Perception was made every season, it was said, ‘Fenerbahce will be champion’. Fenerbahce is the club that beat the most rights.”
“Our mistakes have been certain. Of course, I do not attribute all the unsatisfied results experienced here to external factors only, but they are important. When did Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı become a sports commentator? It was exactly after July 3rd. The same period as Mehmet Baransu, for whatever reason… In terms of stance, In terms of greatness, Fenerbahçe has had situations that caused envy from time to time. We have our share of this. But this is not a reason for our right to be defeated.”
“Why do people who represent TFF allow irregularities. Turkish football revolves around a city team. This is dangerous for Trabzonspor as well. If no one speaks out, we take for granted the wrongdoings. Why are we just talking?”
I said, “Trabzonspor plays the best football”. Points have begun. A relatively old and narrow staff can have an effect, too. At the same press conference, ‘Turkey is bigger than Trabzonspor. Football revolves around the focus of a city.’ When Trabzonspor did not play well, I counted 5 matches in the run for help. Say a match where Trabzonspor lost points due to referee error! I tried not to be unfair to the labor of the technical staff and the players. They have nothing to do with this business. In some matches, they played ball like poetry. But on the whole, there’s good support.”
“If Adana Demirspor lost in the match, it would have dropped to 8 points. Trabzonspor could still be champions. But Trabzonspor has lost such championships in the past. Abdullah Avcı also has it. Panic was done and the job was secured.”
“We are not people who are black one day and white the next. We are one inside and outside. Referees are going through change, we reacted heavily. ‘You are the one who suffers from referees, why are you complaining.’ They said. At 14:30 on Tuesday, David Elleray will present a report on restructuring the Turkish arbitration institution. I don’t know if the foreign arbitrator will present it. Without a presentation, without a report, such communication is extremely strange. Of those who left, and those who left, those who gave us very bad decisions It happened. There are very questionable events. All exams in the refereeing institution have been abolished. Language, athletic performance, rules exam, all have been abolished. Referee is appointed with a torpedo. Maybe the infrastructure of 10 years is being built and they will serve a certain purpose. I believe this. We will try not to allow this. We will expose it. We will bring people to the point where they will be sensitive.”
Sinan Engin: “Who appoints the TFF President?”
Ali Koc: “Why are you asking me the question you already know the answer to?”
“We talked to Mesut Özil’s manager today. Whatever is good for both sides, it should be done. We will decide what will be beneficial as a result of negotiations. We have no problem other than being champion in the 100th anniversary of the Republic of Turkey. If we go back to the past, I would get Mesut again. In this transfer. Both sides were very ambitious. He would get a very low salary for the one in Arsenal. He had no testimonial. Who wouldn’t want a world star like Mesut Özil. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Mesut didn’t come for such a scenario. He did his best, there were unfortunate injuries. The main thing Fenerbahce, as he himself said.
Rasim Ozan Kütahyali: “Fenerbahce was favored by the Republic of Turkey in the transfer of Mesut Özil.”
Ali Koc: “You’re talking nonsense! Who favored us! Did the state go and take it!”
“Ismail Kartal came without talking about money. We said that we are looking for a top-level coach for the next season, and that one of them will be Joachim Löw. They are on good terms. We put everything on the table openly. We do not get behind. “We played a dominant game with the football he played. He built the team spirit. He made Samandıra the most efficient. There was nothing to do but to take off his hat.”
“We were criticized for Miguel Crespo, what are they trying to do now. Diego Rossi has a lot of suitors. Vitor Pereira, Ferdi Kadıoğlu and Osayi Samuel found new positions. I think they should continue in this position. İsmail Hoca created a habit of winning for us.”
