Fenerbahçe coach İsmail Kartal and player Michy Batshuayi made statements before the Union Saint-Gilloise match.
Here are those words…
STATEMENTS OF İSMAİL KARTAL
“Since I cannot evaluate the match without playing it, we need to talk about the opponent. We watched the opponent sufficiently. As a result of our analysis, we saw that they were a very good team and that they were organized in defense and attack. We watched it with our team and conveyed it to my players. We are a strong team and we have a goal. We will go to Istanbul with a good game. “We want to return with the best result.”
Super League championship or Conference League championship?
İsmail Kartal: “I want both.”
WILL THERE BE ROTATION?
“I will make the best use of the squad we have and put the best 11 on the field that will play the game I want. We play a match every 3 days, but the most important match for us is tomorrow. I will take the field with the players with whom I can get the best results. I think I have worked well in this regard.”
“BATSHUAYI IS A VERY GOOD PLAYER”
“Batshuayi is a very emotional child and a very good player. I know very well what he will give in any match. Both the league and Europe are very important for us. I will have a meeting with my team and make the final decision.”
“WE WANT TO GO AS FAR AS WE CAN”
“We came here with the team we have as a full squad. Except for the injuries… We want to go as far as we can in the cup and we care about this tournament.”
“IT IS NOT EASY TO PLAY THESE MATCHES”
“We have a strong, large squad in this year’s Fenerbahçe. I meet with every player. There is no such thing as going to every league in football. Our opponent was also eliminated here. The players in my team will play their 50th match. It is not easy to play these matches. Even in Liverpool “There are 13 injured players. We could not concentrate on the cup due to playing too many matches. This does not mean that we will get bad results here too. Our championship race continues. We will do our best in this tournament, too.”
STATEMENTS OF MICHY BATSHUAYI
“It will be a complex match. We will play against a good opponent. We should not underestimate it and we are aware of that. Overall, it will be a good match.”
“IT IS A GREAT PLEASURE FOR ME TO BE IN BELGIUM”
“It is a great pleasure and happiness for me to be in Belgium. My friends and family will be at the match. It is a great pleasure to play in such an environment, to play football in front of my friends and family. Since I grew up here, I want to put in a good performance.”
“OUR TEACHER HAS A LOT OF TRUST IN ME”
“I get along well with our coach. He trusts me a lot. Of course, like every player, I want to play. I also want to score goals by playing. Our coach knows when to use me. After all, he is the boss.”
