Okan Buruk's statement on Muslera before the big match!

Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk made statements ahead of the Champions League match to be played against Bayern Munich.

Here are Okan Buruk's statements...

"We are both excited to be here and proud of it as a Turkish team. It is very valuable for Galatasaray to be in this tournament. We want to advance from the group stage. Turkish teams have only advanced from the group stage in the Champions League 5 times, and 3 of those belong to Galatasaray. We want to continue this."

"WE WILL PLAY LIKE WE DID IN THE FIRST MATCH"

"Their attacking players are very fast. They can reach our goal very quickly. I trust my players. Turkish fans will be here as well. With their support, we want to play good football just like in the first match and find the score."

"OUR EXPECTATION IS TO WIN"

"Our expectation is to leave every match with a win. We returned from most of our away matches with victories. Our plan is ready. There was a slightly different game in front of our own fans. We analyzed our opponent. We will play in the right way. Our plans are both to create chances and to convert the chances we create into goals. We created many chances in the Copenhagen match as well, but we didn't reach the score. Even though there is a difference between home and away, Galatasaray will do its best to win on the pitch. We know the strength of Bayern Munich. In this sense, our defensive strength will also be at the forefront."

"WE WILL MAKE THE FINAL DECISION"

"Muslera was with us in training. There was nothing negative. We will look tomorrow and make the final decision. Our doctor said there would be no problem if he plays. We will talk to him tomorrow and make the final decision."

"THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT 45 MINUTES IN THE PREVIOUS MATCH"

 "We watched the previous match. We showed the analyses to our players yesterday. There is one thing that is clear. There was a difference between the first 45 and the second 45. In general, there was a big difference between the first half and the second half. We have experienced this a lot this year. We need to extend this duration. We need to create so many chances and find the goal. We had also increased our goal expectation in the Bayern match. If we could have entered the second half with a 1-goal difference, it could have been different. I also received a lot of criticism regarding the substitutions, which is normal. We couldn't respond after 2-1. We dropped very quickly. The players who entered the game also dropped after the goal. Our main goal is finishing. The biggest danger for us is their fast attacks. Winning the ball back from the opponent and finishing the attacks will be the right things for us to do."

"WE WILL JUSTIFY THIS SUPPORT"

"There were magnificent fans in the first match. They created an incredible atmosphere. It will be a match we will remember for many years. We came here to play a match in the 2000s. There was a spectator advantage then too. Even if we cannot get the spectator advantage, we will have the support of many expatriates. In the Manchester match, the spectators appeared from different parts of the stadium. We will try to justify this support with a good game."
