Bursa keeper goes down and knocks a nice shot on goal out of bounds for a corner. That corner comes to nothing. 86'
Turkish fans are second to none in terms of support, incredible atmosphere at like every match. Wild.
Edu seems a bit flat footed at times, which makes him appear slow to react. He looks a lot better when he moves to press.
On the replay, Edu got a little physical there in the box, not PK material in my opinion, because he had position on the ball, but could have been an indirect for obstruction from about 10 yards.
Yeah that seems to be a consistent criticism. He'll get caught sometimes that way, but I also think he's really confident in his positional awareness so it likely won't change much.
Bursa keeper completely whiffs on a corner and is lucky it doesn't bounce into goal. FT! 1-1 Edu had a solid game. Didn't put a bad foot forward!
Ya know, not a perfect match, but if this is supposedly a rusty Edu, I like his chances of contributing to the NT this year. Overall, a good 90 minutes.
There is no doubt, in my mind, that he reads the game well. It's just a positional thing, when he is caught flat footed, because he is supposed to stay in front of the CB's at all times.
Mo is a very good soccer player. I posted that when most were shiteing on him and I feel that way now. The guy is a very good player.
People seem rip on the SPL hard, don't understand the position Mo plays, and he dissappeared at Stoke. I feel a lot more confident with Mo has the midfield destroyer than pretty much anyone else in our National pool. He just needs games now and looks like he will be getting them at Bursa.
All Edu is missing is just a little more skill with the ball under pressure. Every other part of his game is solid, but that occasional panicky touch scares me.
Mo was never as bad as the USMNT/Gers reviews wanted to make him. But his also not quite that "next level" player. How much he contributes to higher level teams depends entirely on how they need to use him.
this commend from user on that youtube vid link,under: Irish people have Galatian blood,it is not surprising if they have some common cultural elements with Anatolian Turkish people.Galatians were anatolian celts,in Byzantine their region was Germanapolis,in Ottoman it was called 'Germiyanogulları'.They mixed with anatolians.I still see celtic looking people in Turkey,not surprising.
yeah me loved too now the statistickly wise: Galatasaray didin't win the game ones again in this field. this makes total 5 season. as i told you before the game, Bursaspor is one of the most difficult away game to grap win... same goes to Eskisehir,Trabzonspor and Istanbul trio fields. very good game by Edu. Iam hoping that that Gala coach impressed too. Melo out Edu in! thats my hope . ps: Edu played full double 90 minutes? midweek cup game and this game...and yet he didint look so tired i think. any tought? ps: thanks for the song vid buddy. cool song.
