Beşiktaş, which lost 4-2 to Göztepe at home, has extended its victory drought to 4 matches. Sergen Yalçın, who both played football and served as the head coach for the black-and-white team, made harsh criticisms after the match. Speaking on Ekol TV, Yalçın said, "Van Bronckhorst has made very inexperienced statements. You can talk like this after working at an Anatolian team, but making such statements after working at Beşiktaş is a huge misfortune. When I took office, I said, 'I will leave when the fans do not want me.' You cannot succeed at Beşiktaş without the fans. These are very clear words showing that the strings have been cut and concentration has been lost." "THERE IS NO RETURN FOR THE MONEY SPENT"There are still 6 months left in the league. Pepe, Talisca, Gomez, these are very high-level players. There was a return for the money spent back then. Right now, there is no return for the money spent at Beşiktaş. Beşiktaş got out of the group in the Champions League back then. This year's transfers are not a success of scouting. The market value of the players does not match. You cannot become a champion by spending a lot of money. Everyone needs to understand this now. It is not about spending a lot, but about spending the right amount. Now there is Friedel. Who brings these players? Every year, new names emerge. They call them transfer geniuses, magicians... Do you know what a pinpoint transfer is? You don't need to be a transfer magician to bring Immobile or Rafa Silva. You pay the money, you offer a high contract. If you pay the money, you get them anyway. These are not players who attract a lot of interest in Europe. Immobile is 34 years old. I am not saying 'Why are they offering a high contract?' I am not judging. I am saying this is not magic. Just playing on the field is not enough for a championship. There is media, there are fans. You are dealing with 25 famous, rich players. They are all egotistical; it is not an easy job. Van Bronckhorst is not very experienced. This is not like Europe! You sign with Twente for two years; it doesn't matter much whether you win a cup or not. Foreign coaches have no chance of being successful here; they cannot do it anyway. You work at a big club, you draw with an Anatolian team, and they criticize you on Twitter. They talk according to Europe. It has no validity here," he said. "LET THEM COME TO ME, I WILL DO IT FOR FREE"Sergen Yalçın, who stated that if he were asked for support, he would ensure the club makes a profit of 50 million euros, said, "Beşiktaş needs to undergo renovation. Beşiktaş needs a rehabilitation period. Look, this squad is not a squad that will be 6th in the league. They say 3-4 pinpoint transfers in the mid-season. Don't do it! There need to be skilled people who can do squad engineering. Because this part of Beşiktaş is complicated. It is not clear who does what. The first thing to do is to increase the team's physical capacity. This is very important. Beşiktaş lacks physical strength. The second thing to do is to improve the players' psychology. Look, the year we became champions, we had a 3-week break. I told Emre Kocadağ, 'Don't come to the facility for 3 weeks. Let me be. First, we will increase the team's physical capacity. Then we will produce different games. If I can't succeed, I will leave.' I can write a prescription for Beşiktaş. Let them come to me; I will write it for free. I am not saying this to ask for a job. Hasan ağabey and I live in the same site. If they wanted squad engineering from the outside, I would do it for free. I would say, 'Get this one, don't get that one.' I would ensure the club makes a profit of 50 million euros. There are presidents we are in contact with and exchange ideas. I am not saying this specifically for Beşiktaş. Beşiktaş fans want an aggressive player like Josef de Souza," he expressed.
