Bülent Akin reportedly close to signing a deal with Dutch 2nd division side MVV Maastricht.

Their manager btw is Fuat Capa hence the link.

The problem is that our federation is too lazy. They don't want to go out and scout these youngsters and offer them to play for our U-15, U-16 etc etc, they wait until they become superstars and then say "hey, come play for us! free kebab and baklava!" :rolleyes: Gokhan Inler even offered himself to us but we denied him, and now he's becoming a regular starter for Switzerland and becoming an important player at Udinese.

Both true and false.

The TFF actually has offices and workers in Germany, that's why you see a lot of the German-Turks in our youth teams (no, it's not just some guy playing FM who finds them :D).

But there are so many that are beginning to slip through that it's obvious that something has been going wrong in the last 5-6 years.

It's sad to see a guy like Mesut Ozil slip through though :D What a talent!

Waya, do you how many goals he has so far this season?

Ah.

Damnit Arshavin leave so Fatih can play! I miss seeing his terrific headers :(

I wish Fatih Tekke plays for Galatasaray. This dude is marvelous even though he is having hard time at Zenit. :(

If he got to play he would be scoring loads. Unfortunately Arshavin isn't partial to him so he barely plays. I want to see him play so he could get picked for the NT.

Arshavin is playing, actually.
Tekke scored because Arshavin pulled defenders and created space for him.
Still, they lost to Nalchik at home. FT: 3-4.
(Both on the pitch for 90 minutes because there are no other forwards available.)
