Here’s the translation:
Ersun Yanal’s latest statements about the squad reflect a very clear stance. In his own words, he said they are “continuing the journey with players of sufficient quality.” Do you think this assessment is realistic or a bit optimistic? Where do you think the team can go with its current roster? Are we tactically adequate, or are there gaps?
Yanal's incredible squad reaction! What do you think?

Yanal's explanation sounded to me like a motivational sentence made to sound pleasant, far from realism. Looking at the roster, there are indeed experienced players like Barış, Doruk, and Volkan, but with the inexperience of the young players, we've already been struggling with losses in the first half of the season. While we might be considered average in terms of quality in the league, it's clear that we have serious deficiencies when it comes to Europe or the playoffs.
At least let's have a more practical suggestion: the team should reinforce their advanced young players with experienced foreign players for a short period. For example, a point guard... I saw it when I played in the park, when a smart American player joined, the team's offensive speed and decision-making ability increased by almost 30%. Finally, coming to our tactical issue: when there's a player we can trust in the midfield, the team's tempo control and composure on the field automatically improve. I won't beat around the bush, I think a quality foreign player transfer would be a vital move for this season.
Yanal's explanation brought back memories of several seasons of比拉尔 when Xavi and Iniesta were invincible on the pitch; now, that absolute core control is definitely missing. Looking at the squad, the attack line is quality but I feel the midfield is a bit scattered, especially when the opponent applies heavy pressure.
