This difference in quality between Mehmet Topuz and Kazma Kazma is not even close. I still can't seem to understand how it is still possible that Kazma will play over him.

I hope one of these days we finally get a really good left back.

Looking at the squad above the quality descrepency between the rest of the positions and our leftback is glaring.

No knock on Balta he is the best option we have no but that isn't saying much.

You could argue that central defense is just as bad, if not worse
Say what you want about a guy like Servet for example but he is head and shoulders a better CB than Balta is a LB.

We rarely ever see Hakan Balta shine in a big game, the best he'll do is be decent and not make a mistake. How many times have we seen Servet turn into an absolute beast in big games?

I personally wouldn't compare Servet and Balta, I don't think it is much of a contest.

People are welcome to disagree.

As long as we qualify I'll be happy. Since the 3 points from this game will go to that end, I want those 3 points.

If we lose this game and still qualify this game like all the other rest we've lost will become irrelevant.

It wouldn't be a good idea to play Zan and Servet in this game. Both of them are extremely heavy defenders and their strengths won't come into play much this game.

We all know Armenia is going to defend hard and counter attack with quick long balls. Playing a heavy Servet and Zan together in defense would be playing right into their hands.

We have a penchant for eating counter attacks against smaller teams and this is in no small part to the stupidity of our coaching staff. We need atleast one fleet footed central defender this game.

If Zan and Servet play something really stupid is going to happen to one of them and we're going to bash them. It isn't their fault if that happens.

Wow what a boring game, for a game that was so hyped up I expected a bit more.

Even Mustafa Denizli said the game had this air of being a friendly non competative match.

Well what ever we got the three points we wanted, next is Belgium in Istanbul.
