Guys, last night during a broadcast on NTV Spor, I noticed Nihat Kahveci made quite an interesting comment during a break in the match. While everyone’s talking about Trossard’s performance in the Champions League group stage, the Konyaspor youngster apparently pointed to İlhan Fakılı. Even though Trossard’s recent inconsistency is up for debate, is he really the name on everyone’s mind—the one we’d call a ‘golden standard’?
What do you think? Should we be debating Trossard’s uncompromising attitude, or is he just an unpolished gem waiting to shine? Should I be wondering if this is all part of a transfer negotiation, or should we just applaud a young player’s boldness? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Trossard or Fakılı? Pulse check after Nihat Kahveci's explosive claim

Last year, during a local tournament, our captain moved me to a position I hadn’t expected at the last minute—he wanted me to play in midfield. I’d always been a forward in the pairs, and while I was wondering how to play in the middle, there was an 18‑year‑old rookie on the team who was already playing midfield. Watching him, I kept thinking, “Did I just get stuck in a bad vibe, or is this kid actually less experienced?” But throughout the match that youngster was constantly pressuring the opponents right from where he got the ball, his passes were hard and spot‑on. I, on the other hand, couldn’t find the center of the middle; I was out of breath just trying to make a step.
In the end, our team won, and that young guy was named man of the match. Since then I’ve realized that “being in the middle of the middle” isn’t just a position—it requires intelligence and determination. Maybe Trossard’s unflappable composure comes from being forced into it; who knows? The real answer isn’t off the field, it’s on it.
