Turkish Super League getting more exciting year after year. Two years before Sivasspor made a big shock about almost winning the title. Sadly they have finished second and then fourth… But leap of Anatolian teams didn’t stopped. Bursapor get the flag from Sivasspor and finished last week on the top of the league.

This year job of Crocodiles (Bursaspor’s nickname) is really hard because every other Anatolian team learned that what could be done if a team wants. It doesn’t matter if you are an Istanbul team or not. Of course three bigs of Istanbul are still the favourites but with the new Broadcasting Agreement valued 321 Million Dollars teams filled their wallet with more cash get transferred better players like Pele from Porto, Federico Insua from CF America, youngster Ismael Sosa from Argentinos Juniors, Nicolae Dica from Catania and Guti from Real Madrid. This players bring more fever to the pitch! Ne diyo lan bu lavuk…

Super Lig was one of the most exciting for many years, partly because of its unpredictability. For large parts of the campaign it really did seem as if Sivasspor would claim the title and break the monopoly of the big Istanbul clubs. If that had happened it would have been an earth shattering event for the Turkish game. In the end Besiktas came through to take the title, but the pain for Istanbul was still evident as Galatasaray and Fenerbahce both did appallingly.

Galatasaray Ne diyo lan bu lavuk…
