In the 5th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Gaziantep Futbol Kulübü and Fenerbahçe drew 0-0. Speaking after the match, experienced Gaziantep FK player Serdar Dursun evaluated both the difficulties of the game and the situation of his former team, Fenerbahçe.
Serdar Dursun stated that the pitch made the game difficult for both teams and said they took the field with the goal of securing 3 points. Pointing to the opportunities they found in the first half, Dursun noted that Fenerbahçe also had clear chances that hit the post or were cleared off the line.
Regarding the flow of the match, the experienced forward said, "In such matches, the important thing is not to fall behind. The pressure of a big team is different. When you stand correctly, there is always a chance to score. If we could have been calmer and made better choices in some positions, we could have found goals. Taking 1 point against a big team is also beneficial."
Responding to a question about his former team Fenerbahçe's inconsistent performance in the league, Serdar Dursun said that the long-standing championship expectation within the yellow-navy community creates pressure on the players. He emphasized that despite the point gap in the league, it is still the early stages of the season.
In his assessment of the Fenerbahçe squad, Dursun stated, "I think there is an inadequacy in the squad in terms of players. I think it is very insufficient in some positions. The coach's hands are tied too. He cannot express all of it either. It shows that there is a lack of player quality in certain positions, and the coach cannot produce the game he wants."
Expressing that Fenerbahçe is a strong opponent and enters every match with the goal of winning, Serdar Dursun added that big teams gain better momentum with consecutive victories.
AZIZ YILDIRIM HAD SAID 'THE SQUAD IS SUFFICIENT'
Following these words from Dursun, the statements made by Fenerbahçe President Aziz Yıldırım after the 2-1 defeat to Beşiktaş came to mind. Yıldırım had argued that the squad was sufficient.
