ABOUT HIS PHYSICAL CONDITION AFTER HIS INJURY

These practices and taking time to be ready are very important for me. I continue to work like my teammates to be fully ready for the Beşiktaş match.”
“I AM AWARE THAT I AM IN A VERY BIG CLUB”
Referring to his performance this season and his playing time, the 32-year-old player said, “First of all, I would like to say that I am happy. I am aware that I am in a very big club and I have had a good adaptation process from the first moment I came here. We are trying to show a good performance both individually and as a group. If I can score 5 more goals, it will be the best season of my career. It seems that I can do this too, I can reach 30-31 goals. Of course, I can achieve this with the performance we will show as a team. The most jerseys I can achieve.” “As for being the fourth player to wear it, this is about the trust your coach has in you. You should not disappoint this trust with your performance. Therefore, I will continue to do my best to produce a better performance,” he said.
“MY GOAL AND PURPOSE IS TO HELP MY TEAM NO MATTER WHAT MY POSITION IS”
About his relationship with Fenerbahçe Coach Domenico Tedesco and the position he plays, Talisca said, “We have a really good relationship with our coach. We both have great respect for each other. Of course, our coach contributes to the increase in my performance. I try to help my team. This performance is actually a collective performance. I try to help my team’s performance. Yes, I play in the number 10 position, but I also played number 9. I have played in different positions in the clubs I have played in before. “My goal and purpose is to help my team, regardless of my position,” he said.
“WE ARE WORKING HARD TO RETURN STRONGER AND COMPLETE”
Regarding the Beşiktaş match and the rest of the season, Talisca said, “It is a very important match for us. I believe that our fans will support us tremendously. Of course, we need to win the matches we play for our goal. Unfortunately, we lost points in some matches that we should not have lost. But of course, we need to continue in the best way so that we can create pressure. The matches we will play are difficult, but we are preparing in the best possible way. We especially find this break very valuable. It is very good for us to come back stronger and more fully.” “We are working hard, we want to put the best on the field. We also want support from our fans in this sense. We need to continue with the same desire to work both in the cup and in the league so that we can achieve our goals.”
“WE NEED TO KNOW THE VALUE OF THE FENERBAHÇE JERSEY”
Stating that he also supports young players, the striker football player said, “I am constantly in communication with my teammates. It does not matter on or off the field. I share my thoughts for their well-being. Being in a big club like Fenerbahçe is an important chance for all of us. It is necessary to know the value of the Fenerbahçe jersey. I constantly tell them that they should fight, concentrate, be a good person and represent their families well. These are very important to me. Your football career goes by very fast anyway. Therefore, I want them to enjoy this time.”
“WE LOVE THIS CITY AND THIS COUNTRY AS A FAMILY”
Talking about Istanbul and his family, the Brazilian actor continued his words as follows:
“Both me and my family are really happy. We love this city. Moreover, we love Türkiye very much. I am a football player who enjoys spending more time at home. Of course, we occasionally go to restaurants, shopping, and spend time as a family. There are also incredibly wonderful restaurants in Istanbul. I would like to reiterate that we love this city and this country very much as a family. My children do not like football very much. I cannot say that they love it very much, but they enjoy playing it. They even train, but my opinion here is where they will be in the future. “They can do whatever they want in the profession. In this sense, I approach them very calmly.”
“WE CAN ACHIEVE OUR GOALS WITH THE SUPPORT OF OUR FANS”
Addressing the yellow-dark blue fans, Talisca said, “Our fans should believe in us until the end. We have done great things together, we have won very important matches. But unfortunately, we could not win the matches we should have won. Our aim and desire is to win every match. But we will continue strongly for the rest of the season. I think we have a strong team. Our fans should come to the stadiums and support us because with their support, we can achieve our goals. We will be much better both physically and mentally.” “I think our fans should have no doubt that we will be much better during the international break,” he concluded his words.
