'IT WAS SATISFYING IN EVERY ASPECT'
Evaluating the match, Sergen Yalçın said, "Bilal is very important, this injury would have greatly affected our game plan. We worked on a different format during the week. With two defensive midfielders, Junior in a different position. Göztepe is a good team, a fighting team. It is pleasing to win both the game and the score. We played such a match for the first time this season. We have always gone through troubled processes. We are going through tough times, but I think things are slowly getting better. The effort, desire, and commitment to the game plan of today's team... In my opinion, it suited the Beşiktaş jersey. Our fans were also behind the players until the end of the match. The community is slowly coming together. It was difficult at the beginning of the season. Things are getting better. This makes us happy. We do this work to be successful. We do it to make people happy. Today's game was satisfying in every aspect." he said.
'WE MUST NOT OVERLOOK SERKAN REÇBER'S SUCCESS'
Continuing his words, the experienced coach said, "It was the best game of the season. The score we achieved and the game we played were the best of the season. I also thank my players. We are always being discussed, but we must not overlook Serkan Reçber's success in these matters. They say, what does Serkan Reçber do, he does this job. We act together in player selection, I make the final decision. His knowledge and experience are very valuable. I tell this to our community. There are negative perceptions, let there not be! We are all here for Beşiktaş, we are not here for our personal pleasures. Our goal is the success of Beşiktaş and we are working for that." he stated.
'WE PREFER SUCH PLAYERS'
Commenting on the new names joining the team, Sergen Yalçın said, "Oh, a very characterful, decent, humble kid. He is needed by Beşiktaş, and Beşiktaş needs him. We preferred more players like this. We selected players who will go to better places from here. We preferred such players during the transfer period. Serkan has been watching these types of players for months. He went abroad, sat with all of them, had meals. These transfers are not easy, you can't just get a player when you say ha. Our president also helped a lot in the transfers. Our president made the last move, when it got stuck in financial matters, our president solved it. The transfers will be very beneficial." he expressed.
'HE WILL BE OUT FOR 6-8 WEEKS'
Providing information about the latest situation of El Bilal Toure, who suffered an injury last week, Yalçın commented, 'El Bilal Touré will be out for 6-8 weeks.'
