Galatasaray increased its points to 6 by beating Germany's Stuttgart, which it hosted in the 4th week of the UEFA Champions League, 2-0 with Aleksey Batrakov's goals. The harsh assessments made in the past by Turkish National Team Head Coach Sergen Yalçın about the young footballer have come to the agenda again. Here are the details...
National Team Head Coach Sergen Yalçın's past evaluations about Galatasaray's young star Aleksey Batrakov, who made a name for himself with his performance in the UEFA Champions League, have come to the agenda again.
SERGEN YALÇIN'S COMMENT ON BATRAKOV
It has emerged that Sergen Yalçın argued that the young footballer Batrakov is not a profile who can win a match at the Champions League level.
''HE IS NOT THE MODEL TO WIN A MATCH IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE''
It has emerged that Yalçın, criticizing the playing style of Batrakov, who scored 2 goals and brought his team the victory in the Stuttgart match played at RAMS Park in the 4th week of the UEFA Champions League, said, "I don't like him very much. I don't think he is a player for whom 25-30 million Euros would be paid. Batrakov is not a No. 10, and he is not at all a model who can win a match for Galatasaray in the Champions League."
AT THE TOP WITH 4 GOALS
These evaluations by Sergen Yalçın came back onto the agenda after Batrakov's Champions League matches against Barcelona, Lille, and most recently Stuttgart, where he scored 2 goals and made history by placing at the top of the goalscoring charts.
