Sports commentator Hasan Şaş evaluated the first half of the season in the Super League on the sporOn YouTube channel. Hasan Şaş made a striking confession about Marco Asensio, who Fenerbahçe added to their squad at the beginning of the season.
'THE REASON FOR THE GOOD GAME...'
Speaking about Fenerbahçe's game plan, Hasan Şaş said, "The reason for Fenerbahçe's good game is that after Tedesco came, he immediately used 2 fixed 6s, sometimes Fred, but the İsmail-Alvarez duo... It was all about how can I make Asensio play more comfortably."
'I WISH HE WAS AT GALATASARAY'
Praising Marco Asensio, Hasan Şaş made a striking confession, stating, "Fenerbahçe has acquired a very, very, very good player (Asensio). I openly say that I would have liked this player to be at Galatasaray. He makes a big difference. He is dominant with his left foot, has very high game intelligence, loses the ball rarely, and is constantly a threat. Talisca is also in good form."
'YOU'LL GET IN TROUBLE'
Continuing his remarks, Şaş said, "Having 2 left-footed players like Talisca adds a lot to Fenerbahçe. I won't talk about stopping Fenerbahçe here, but there is one thing, if you can't cut the connections between Talisca and Asensio, both being left-footed and in great form, you'll get in trouble."
'STOP THEM AND FENERBAHÇE STOPS'
Continuing to emphasize the importance of Asensio and Talisca in the game, Şaş stated, "Stop both of them and Fenerbahçe stops. Asensio and Talisca make a big difference. Asensio is at the center of the entire midfield, going inside from the wings... Controlling this is very difficult. Just like Yunus at Galatasaray. Talisca, who plays in front of him, helps him with passing and organization. Asensio beats his man in one-on-one situations, makes good assists, takes good shots, and has top-quality game intelligence. When Talisca fits into this, a different Fenerbahçe emerges. In the first half of the Eyüpspor match, Fenerbahçe played very good football, that's clear."
