I just read a news related to Chinese NT!
This is the news (from onefootball.com):
Turkey manager Senol Gunes has tipped his side to beat World Cup Group C opponents China and Costa Rica after watching both teams in action last week.
Speaking after watching China and Costa Rica in friendly action against South Korea, Gunes also claimed the prospect of playing Brazil holds no fear for his team.
"I watched both our group contenders," he said. "Costa Rica had many key players missing but they played well. This team is a team to watch out for.
"China are also a strong team. They play good organised football but they are more concerned with stopping their opponents. They are well disciplined but not a big team to watch out for.
"So when I look at the qualities of my team then I say that if we play like we always play: strong, aggressive and well organised, then I think that China and Costa Rica will not be a problem for us."
He added: "I even have no fears about Brazil. But it's early to start talking about these things. I have trust in my team."

What a great confidence of him, right?

Well, for me, his opinion is still his opinion!
It won't change a bit about the fact in soccer that the ball is always round, and everything could happens in soccer!

If Turkey that superior, why on earth they couldn't beat Korea?

Well, I think it's enough for me to comment on Turkey NT!
A wise word for this situation would be let's see at that WC!!
PS: Zhuge, please do not comment or judge on something if you don't know what's behind that thing!

FYI, the thread or even the forum you were talking about is older than your presence here, so ofcourse it has its own story... (And no offence to you too, Zhuge)
