After the controversy with İbrahim Hacıosmanoğlu, Fatih Terim made a striking reference in his new video by pointing to the ground with his hand. Terim said, "I do not derive my existence from my position; some people's existence is tied to their position."
Fatih Terim, one of the experienced technical directors of Turkish football, made evaluations regarding the agenda in his new video titled "Terim Deneyimi" (Terim's Experience) published on his personal YouTube account.
In Terim's statements, expressions considered to be directed at TFF President İbrahim Hacıosmanoğlu, with whom he had a verbal duel before, drew attention.
"SOME PEOPLE'S EXISTENCE IS IN THEIR POSITION"
During his statement, Fatih Terim, as in his previous outburst, pointed to the ground with his hand and used the following expressions:
"Not everything may please everyone, but I don't do this to please someone. Whatever that environment deserves, I say it. Also, I do not derive my existence from my position; some people's existence is in their position! I derive my existence from my work, my knowledge, my experience, and my heart."
EARLIER HE SAID "LET'S NOT WASTE TIME HERE"
The tension between Terim and Hacıosmanoğlu had started during the World Cup. In the debate that followed his statements about the National Team, Terim had responded to the criticisms directed at him.
The experienced coach had used the expressions, "I have no intention of explaining myself. What was said is very clear. The entire nation, not 99 percent but 100 percent, understood what I said correctly. Let's think about the problems of Turkish football. Let's not waste time here! Let's move past these matters." Following the polemic between the two, Terim's latest statement was interpreted as a new reference.
