Giresunspor will host Beşiktaş in the 9th week of Spor Toto Super League. Before the tough match, Giresunspor’s net keeper Onurcan Piri made a statement.
“WE LOVE DIFFICULT”
There have been radical changes in our staff compared to last year. There were also those who left us. I don’t even remember the number. As Giresunspor, we like challenges. No matter how well you play when you lose, the player is already bad. We started out with Galatasaray and Kasımpaşa matches. There were some very important players who left us. We made reinforcements instead. If we include the last week, we worked very well in the 3-week gap. It was an environment to socialize with our new friends who joined the team. We did incredible things in the Alanyaspor match we played with 10 people. We say, ‘There are 10 people left, but we could have won’. That’s the important thing. We aim to carry the team to the best point.
“WE PREPARE WELL FOR BEŞİKTAŞ MATCH”
We had a good morale before the Beşiktaş match. I am living my 3rd season with our teacher Hakan Keleş. Our teacher Hakan leaves us alone before such matches. It also makes us believe that we will win. This is an extra power. Everyone takes the field to win. We are preparing very well and we are doing analysis. We will fight on the field at least as much as the Alanyaspor match. Let me promise you this. We are a fighting team. We will play against one of the biggest clubs in Turkey. Players concentrate on such matches spontaneously. We don’t need any extra motivation. We are already motivated.
“OUR GOAL IS CLEAR IN BEŞİKTAŞ MATCH; 3 POINTS”
We will play in front of our fans. The stadium will be full. We want to get 3 points with their support. Beşiktaş’s squad is in the middle of nowhere. A great team. Matches are played 11 to 11. It is unclear what will happen. We like a surprise. We fight for it too. Besiktas match will be the same.
“GİRESUNSPOR SUITABLE FOR THE SUPER LEAGUE”
We are one of the youngest teams in the Super League. We have a large staff. Competition in the team is high. This will reflect positively on the team. It will also reflect on the score. We have goals in this league. We want to create a permanent Giresunspor in the Super League. Our management has made important moves. Giresunspor suits the Super League very well. We look good with the management, the team and the fans. We want to be permanent.
“A VERY GOOD GROUP”
We had no problems with Hakan. We have a very good communication. Our coach is a coach who wants to get what they want on the field, but does not put pressure on us. This relaxes us. There are some very good names in the goalkeeping department. We have young goalkeepers. We are a very good group. Competition continues there, too. This increases the performance. I am very happy for the competition. We work with very valuable teachers.
“MUSLERA TAKES GOALTENDER 10 YEARS ADVANCE”
I really like Rustu Recber, one of the former goalkeepers. I grew up with his games. Maybe I decided to do this job by following him. Galatasaray goalkeeper Fernando Muslera is also a very important name in our country. Muslera came and took goalkeeping 10 years forward in Turkey. The younger generation who saw him tried to be like Muslera. Local goalkeepers are also very good. Uğurcan Çakır, Altay Bayındır and Ersin Destanoğlu… I don’t think there is a local goalkeeper who plays and performs poorly. This is also very important for our country. I think that the goalkeepers given the chance are using this chance well.
“ERSIN IS A VERY MAGNIFICENT PERSON”
I love Ersin Destanoğlu as a person. We met a few times. He is a very majestic person. A very valuable goalkeeper for our country. It will not be an easy match. I wish him success in advance. I hope it will be an evening where the goalkeepers are talked about.
“WE WANT FOOTBALL TO BE PLAYED FASTER”
Due to VAR, sometimes the game can take a long time. The team catches up with the tempo and the game drops. Being a referee is one of the hardest things in Turkey. Sometimes the referees are under such pressure that they want to leave it to VAR when they can make that decision. They do not want to take criticism and make the wrong decision. Of course, football needs to be played faster. You look at the Premier League, the game does not stop. We would like it to be. But not the referees, but also the players have a share in this. All stakeholders fall into business. used the phrases.
