they can always reunite Kolo Toure with Eboue :donedeal:
Eboue is leaving. So is Drogba, Chedjou and Dany. Mancini seem to be eliminating all of the African players in the team. Maybe because of 2015 Africa Cup of Nations? Not sure.

The one that is going to Milan?
I didn't know he was. Did he sign with Milan or just a rumor? Would've been a superb free-agent transfer for us, as our foreigner CBs are probably some of the worst out there. With the ridiculous foreigner player limit in the Turkey, we have to make guaranteed move in CB position and Alex would have been a spot on sign.

whats this foreign player rule? is there a limit of how many foreigners you can have? and how will that affect your squad for the next season?
It's an ancient rule, that has been revived by Turkish Football Federation at the same time Fenerbahce and Besiktas got involved in match fixing and Galatasaray built it's new stadium, got out of economic crisis that it has been in for the last 15 years or so, is able to transfer likes of Sneijder again. They don't want the gap to open between the top 3 clubs of Istanbul like it did in the late 80s and 90s.

They call it: 6+0+4. Which in detail; teams are only allowed to have 10 foreigner players, play with only 6 of them on the field and leave the remaining 4 out of the match squad. Next season they're reforming it and take it to the next level which will be called 5+0+3 :lol:

In Turkey, they blame us for losing to Real Madrid 1-6 at home. Let me say this, 3 or 4 out of 11 players that day was not match fit due to this ridiculous rule. Because they weren't getting enough play time or not getting any play time at all. Even in the Chelsea games. So how are we going to compete with European giants under these circumstances? Not to mention how horrible is the quality of Turkish players these days. This is like going uphill with a ton of weight. Our squad is already weaker than likes of Chelsea and PSG, let alone Real, Barca or Bayern and we have to play them with double standards.

You guys are clueless on how dirty is Turkish football. Just because Galatasaray wasn't involved in match fixing like the other two clubs of Istanbul, the government and the Turkish Football Federation that is under the goverment's fingers is against Galatasaray and doing everything to stop Galatasaray.

For example, here's how Fenerbahce became champions or how they made them champions this season. This video contains only the first half of this season. They're not even supposed to compete in the League 1. They should already been relegated to 2nd or 3rd league 2-3 years ago. But this is Turkey and I wouldn't be surprised if they relegate us to a lower league instead of Fenerbahce in the near future.

Khedira is an absolute beast in the NT, he was also great in his 1st 2 seasons under Mourinho. last season he was shit, and this season he is injured most of thetime so its hard to tell. so far, 2 great and one shit season, so lets see what he will look like next season before judging him...
