Every now and then, a major giant stares down the barrel at relegation. This season, that misfortune has fallen to Galatasaray, the most successful club in Turkish history. Winless in 2022, after 25 games they lie 13th, now just three points clear of the relegation spots. Considering they have never dropped out of the Süper Lig in it’s 59 year history, these are worrying times for the club known to its fans as ‘Cimbom.’
But why are Galatasaray in so much trouble? In our latest Euro Football Daily Explained we take a lot at the problems in their bloated and ageing squad, plus explore the debt and poor management that has shackled the club for years. Galatasaray have a history of teetering towards disaster and failing to learn the errors of their ways.
But it’s not just Galatasaray who are struggling, with Fenerbahce and Besiktas also lagging behind this campaign. We take a look at the other factors that have caused the ‘Big 3’ from Istanbul to drop off so dramatically.

I fell in love with Galatasaray after they reached the UCL QF in 2013/14 after defeating Schalke in the round of 16. Their stadium atmosphere was terrifying. Sad to see them like this.
12/13
You shouldn’t be. Galatasaray is way much bigger then all of this little crisis
we back
I can't believe how far they have fallen. I remember only 10 years ago my little English Town was buzzing when Gala (with Drogba in attack too) came to play a friendly here against our team. I wasnt even a fan of football that much at the time, but even I knew how huge it (the club and the friendly) was and getting to see legends live was amazing. Sad to see.
We only missed the championship by one goal last year. We are still the best but we have the worst season in our history because of the worse manager fatih terim. We only bought bad players because of him. The club did everything he wanted they bought every player he wanted just so the club was going to become “young”, with only young players like ajax leipzig and stuff but was a huge failure. Everyone knows you cant have a too young team especially in Turkey. Most gala fans hate terim for what he did, in the past we won lots of cups with him even tho those came with teams terim didnt built. But were already built for him by others. Also the poor management of the club is a big reason why we are in a bad position. They dont know anything about football or sports in general whatsoever, yet they still want to manage a big club and ruin everything doing so. Unfortunately we dont have smart management like european clubs, thats why almost all big clubs in Turkey are in a downfall!
@@reypalomo4257 clown, most fans want terim back
The club is still the biggest club of Turkey, eventho some would say otherwise. Its just a very bad season, maybe one of the worst in the history of Galatasaray in the SuperLig. But as the most successful and biggest club of Turkey we know we will be back in winning ways rather sooner then later. Also its good to see that Galatasaray are playing better football the last 2 weeks. It wont be enough to finish top 5 i guess but next season will be probably much better if we keep rejuvenating our team. But yeah its a shame that this season is lost, it will cost some millions….
@@oguzhan9424 they lost yesterday against konyaspor 2-0 and fc barcelona knocking on the door
@@fatobeko3181 yes ive watched the game live and it was pritty bad display to be honest. Guess Barca will get a free round 😔 Just when hope came around for better games the game against Konyaspor was pritty bad.
I am a huge Galatasaray supporter from Germany and I would say that one of our main issues on the long term was thinking short term. Galatasaray often seems to be a consumer’s Club but we also produce great talent eg Ozan Kabak, Emre Belözoglu or Bartug Elmaz who is going to Marseille this summer. The problem here is that we rely too much on the transfer market instead of using our own talent. Even with our new policy to use young players we don’t take advantage of our own academy. We spent 30 m on the transfer market while we have great talent in our own academy. Nevertheless I’d say that the issues aren’t as terrifying as they might seem because we still managed to become first seed in an European league group which had (in my eyes) champions league quality. We also have players with great resell value like marcao or kerem akturkoglu and a great football visionary in Luis Campos in our team. We just need to stick to the plan to fulfill our part. The bigger issues seem to be out of our influence in my eyes like the Turkish lira performing bad or the federation trying to stop us at all costs. It might seem like an excuse but there are clubs and referees which just try to weaken Galatasaray. Our ex coach Fatih terim was banned for 6 matches in a crucial part of the season and there was a really suspect decision making by the referees
I never fought in my wildest dreams that my club would be on FD it’s shame that it has to happen like this The biggest club in Turkey is in the relegation zone almost shame it hurts anyway greetings from Netherlands everyone
As a fener fan I feel your pain, even tho we’re 5th we’re so bad the coaching is awful and our president Ali Koc makes bad decisions all the time
Ik voel je man ben zelf besiktas supporter
Taking lessons from HITC Sevens, I see.
Its from oh my goal
BIG UP HITC
@@FW.Xemnas oh my goal is a second rate American channel that routinely makes mistakes in its “reporting” on football matters and lost any credibility when it became a messi/ronaldo site
@@timsmith1323 you got a point
Lol
This was really interesting!
Seeing how Besiktas went from a domestic treble to 8th after arguably getting a stronger squad as well as finish w 0 points in the CL would be cool
One correction I would add to your video is that Galatasaray reached the quarterfinals of UCL in 2012/2013 with Fatih Terim, not Mancini. Mancini came at the 2013/2014 season and we finished at the round of 16 in UCL.
To get on the overall topic:
Another problem with Turkish football is that Turkish clubs in general always fire head coaches after one dismal season, there's never really any patience unless a head coach is doing well. As for GS, they kept going back to Fatih Terim after a head coach did poorly. As a GS fan myself, I used to love Terim but his coaching ways are too outdated for today's football. Torrent seems like a step in the right direction, he's sort of bringing the same philosophies he had when he was an assistant coach under Guardiola many years
In less than a year, Turkish football has realized its legends who had once modernized the game in the country have now fallen behind to the modern game. Terim’s ordeals at Galatasaray and Güneş’s absolutely disastrous Euros at the helm of Turkish NT have displayed how far these once-managerial greats have fallen.
In truth, Galatasaray’s youth injection at the beginning of the season was a much needed one but Terim, a winner but never a builder, was a completely unsuitable candidate for the job. The footballing brains trio of Luis Campos, Pasquale Sensibile and Domenec Torrent set up by the much-maligned club president Burak Elmas should have been brought in last summer rather than when the club is flirting with hazard in mid-January.
I don’t think Cimbom are going down this year, and establishing the team around rising stars such as Akturkoglu, Akgun (mesmerizing in his Liam spell at Adana DS under Montella), Nelsson and Boey is the future. Getting rid of the “veterans club” aka Arda Turan, Babel, Feghouli, among others will also be key. Selling players on who have failed but still command a resell value will also be of paramount importance. Antalyali, Elabdellaoui, Akbaba and Morutan will all have suitors come the summer.
Recruiting local talent is also crucial as the federation is bringing back the rather pointless or downright stupid foreigners cap rule as no team In SüperLig will be allowed to field more than 6 foreigners in their first eleven starting from next season.
Not all is lost but there’s much to be done. The glory days of 2000 or the times when the club secured the signings of Sneijder and Drogba in less than 24 hours are a long way away, however, and the fans should come to realize that.
Old aging defenders versus gervinho was is deadly on the break and that is why trabzonspor is 1st.
Great insight Ozgur! As a Galatasaray fan myself, it pains me to see where we are now. Kind of reminds me of the season when we had Rijkaard/Hagi as head coaches for the 2010/2011 season and we finished a horrible 8th position. Even though Burak Elmas did a lot of mistakes this season, bringing in Torrent, Campos and Sensibile is a good start for rebuilding the squad. Beating Besiktas and narrowly losing out to Barcelona in the Europa League Round of 16 gives me hope that Torrent will hopefully do better from here on in
Excellent video, great research enjoyed watching!
Appreciate this video. Turkish football might not be the best, but it' s interesting
Update: We still suck and Barca will thrash us. But at least we' re not as close to relegating anymore. 8 points between us and relegation
Can't stop but love this channel
Don't forget to mention we're dealing with a hostile football federation. Getting robbed by refs and the var every week. Irrational red cards, fines and suspensions have played a big part in our demise. Even going back to last year we woulda been champs if it wasn't for the corrupt TFF.
Tffyi birak ya tmm hakemler cöp gibi ama bizde top oynamiyoruz
why was it corrupt? show me proof
@@scottxtapes9743 It´s corrupt, but the corruption is done by Galatasaray, for years they have bought off referees and even titles. They still get an irrational amount of penalties and red cars in their favour, where they shouldn´t get it.
Ya kardes bende Galatasarayliyim, habire hakem demenin ne anlami var ya! Hakem 2 golunu mac basi caliyorsa ozaman sen 3 atacaksin demektir, gececeksin bunlari! Bu mentalite iste futbol oynatmiyor, duran sporu ceviriyor futbolu! Hakem kimi engellerse engellesin, hatali secimler yapiyorsa sportif direktor yada yetkili mactan sonra yazili sekilde itiraz eder eninde sonunda o hakem ekmeginden olur! Ama habire hakem hakem demeyi birakalim artik!
@@scottxtapes9743
This are people who dont understand football. They think the referee is always to blame, and yes they will blame the ref in every instance except when they win.
Very interesting story and a well out together video. I'm a Galatasaray fan, and as someone who's been very spoilt by the fairly consistent success over the years, seeing the club in this state is sad.
Have been a fan for more than 20 years, and also have been a football daily fan for years, really appreciate this, 🙏
I was hoping to listen to Alfie from HITC. Then I realized this was FD
7:30 how is Cyprus league “better” than super lig like turkeys league fell of but not that hard like I don’t even know one team from Cyprus
Dont forget super league has very boring bsd refrees that is the reason and gala having uefa cups already solos best 3 teams at cyprus
Loved this video
Can you do a video on why Mexico is failing in the international and club stage i would be really interested in your take
Maybe it has to do with the influx of South American players into the Liga MX. Whence the last time a Mexican-born player was the leading goalscorer of a season?
This makes me so happy
Interesting. Similar to La Liga, the struggles of the big 3 could allow for the other teams to stake a claim at the top and get some European football.
Galatasaray have the best fans in Europe
I thought this was a HITC Sevens video 🤣
He needs to do on Galatasaray
Loved this! Informative, fair, insightful and engaging. As a Celtic/Galatasary fan it's been heartbreaking to see a true giant of the game languishing a wee bit, but something's got to change 😢
They are a disgusting club that deserve everything. They brought out a knife set on the anniversary of when they stabbed and killed a fan
@@joelpedder6677 Calm down, every fanbase has its share of nutters. Those that did that are scum, you're absolutely right. 90% of folk are just there to watch football.
@@Bkesal14 it's not the fan base the actual club put a knife set on sale on the anniversary
@@joelpedder6677 fair enough, that's pretty grim :( In my defence though, if every fan abandoned ship whenever their club did something dodgy there would be hardly any clubs left with fans!
Could you do an explained on the Belgian league? it is completely upside down and actually really interesting
They've never been the same!
Thanks to the worse manager ever existed fatih terim!! He doesn’t know s..t about football and talented players
Galatasaray is rebuilding right now. Stay tuned guys one of the best underdogs of europe is coming back👋
Gala doesnt even compare to how far Fenerbahce have lost there status. In 08 they were in the top 20 most expensive clubs and a svare to deal with, now theyre bottom of the barrel.
Obviously FD not EFD but sat waiting for Sunday Vibes still 😪
Good stuff..
Not quite sure the figures are spot on, but the idea is indeed correct.
Suggestion: do a similar analysis on Portugal big 3...
Yes, they do great for their means in the pitch, but you will be shocked with how much their finances are exposed.
As always, let me know if you need any help.
More than happy too
They will face Barcelona in Europa League . It will be interesting how they play against them.
Galatasaray concede bunch of goals. Barcelona score a bunch of goals. It’s easy to know what’s going to happen
Galatasaray has just returned to UEFA CL with a mighty squad to crush them all. The Club has a long history with CL and this year they are stronger than ever, they've managed to sign contracts with Torreira, Nicolo Zaniolo, Angelinho, Wilfred Zaha, Mauro Icardi, Kerem Demirbay and Cedric Bakambu and still trying to find number 8; possible candidates are Paredes, Fred and Saul Niguez. Also they've got Muslera, Dries Mertens, Sacha Boey, Victor Nelson, Kerem Aktürkoğlu, Barış Alper Yılmaz and Sergio Oliviera.
Gala is back first they became champions and now they transferred top players such as zaha, icardi, zaniolo...
No way is the Scottish premiership a top 10 UEFA league 😭😭
Well ...
"Tell me you only watch English Football without telling me you only watch English Football"
@@LKRTM I don’t watch English football actually, I mainly watch Bundesliga and Serie A because I like entertaining and competitive leagues, which is something that the Premier league and SPFL both aren’t
@@antonioah7 "Tell me you don't even watch any football and chat utter shit without telling me you don't watch football and chat utter shit".
@@antonioah7 “I watch bundesleagua and seria a because I like competitive leagues” 😐😐
All of Turkey is against Galatasaray…
Every big club in this sort of situation can very easily look to the talent that's likely to he departing Russian clubs in short order. Granted, some of these players probably need to play out their contract, but a fair number of quality players are about to become available on frees. Especially players that are not from Russia- they want to get out as quickly as possible.
You're copying HITC Sevens with the title! Alfie has a series called 'What on Earth'...
Turkey below Greece and Cyprus on the coefficients must hurt
Turkey is 16th this is wrong
Galatasaray and fenerbahce alone are more valuable than greece and Cyprus league combined
Their back to the top with beautiful transfers
Especially galatasaray
Check their squad on galatasaray
Where is Sunday vibes!!!!
GS has won the most prizes in turkey HISTORY en even the ONLY CLUB who has won a major EUFA CUP. my heart is in pain to see my love to crumble
CANIM SEVGILIM GS turkey ligi sanna KURBAN OLSUNNNNN
What happened to Panathinaikos?
We‘re having a very very Bad season so far in the League. Even though we won today, we are 13th in the League. There are many Problems inside the Team but also in turkish Football.
We‘ve lost many points due to wrong decisions by referees even though there is the VAR in the turkish league.
But you can‘t blame them. We showed so many horrible Performances. The weiterst thing is, that we were leading in all big matches / derbys.
Against Trabzonspor: 1st Match went from 2:0 to 2:2. In the 2nd match Galatasaray were leading 1:0 till the 84th & still managed to lose 1:2 due to 2 big mistakes by our own Players.
Same against Besiktas & Fenerbahce. Galatasaray were leading both Matches & lost both with 2-1.
And there is were the Biggest Problem Beginns. Galatasaray decided do invest in Young Players & is slowly trying to get rid Off all the Old Stars.
Many players were bought at the start of the Season. Mostly 20-25 year old Players. Most of them did come from lower leagues. For example Cicaldau & Morutan, they both came from the romanian League or Nelsson which came from the danish League and this is were the Main Issue began. Like 4-5 New Young & unexperienced Players were thrown into the Starting 11. You could See how unexperienced the Team was due to their way of conceding goals & giving away the leads.
Or for example the striker Mostafa Mohamed. A Young Player which came from the Egypt League. Great Physicality but Missed so many Chances. Galatasaray is the Team with the Most Big chances created. We had Matches with like 25-3 shots and still managed to draw or lose, because our young & unexperienced Players were not „cool“ enough. Thats why Gomis for an example has been brought Back.
The issue is that the New Players got thrown in way to fast. You could replace 1-2 Players each Season. Not 4-6. And also there low experience.
But for sure it will be better in the Future. Cicaldau, Nelsson, Mohammed, Marcao, Morutan, Aktürkoglu & Boey have some huge Potential. Some of them are 24/25 but still they can Improve.
Sorry for my english.
Could you make a video about FC Zürich?
Barca got lucky in Uefa Leagaue draw.
Well there wasn't any good team in the draw

Fenerbahce next please 🥺🥺😘
Couldn’t happen to a nicer club 😉
WE ARE FUCKING BACK AAAAAAAH
👍👍
Make a vid about konyaspor from zero to second place in the league
We will be fine. It happens every several years. It happens to all top teams within their respected leagues. Only 4 games behind top 5…. So its really not far off. Also we topped europa league table.
They’re doing good in europa league somehow
because every team in turkey knows that gala cant score when you park the bus
Turkey is 16th in the coefficient

what is gala? galatasaray fans do not use this word. our nickname is "cimbom".
They got alot of old players. Need to get some fresh young talent

Mangled their own ground to knock Juve out of CL and attacked their social medias when Asamoah didn't sign for them, including a post about an ex Juve player that passed away. Karma.
Bro what? Mangling your own ground also hurts you yourself like wtf is that logic? And it's not like gala parked the bus on an away advantage, they needed to win and they did so it was well deserved.
@@joeydallas7351 Have another look at the pitch, Juves half was 80% mud and Galas half was practically untouched except for the middle straight up. Yes it was a hard fought win but bare sus for me.
@@CANNAV0 they switch sides buddy
It’s 45 mins each half ;)
Let them go down. That will teach them a lesson lol
it’s karma for their fans on social media flooding comment sections, they get what they deserve
Wth does that have to do with this? You really arent smart are you? Those are all little kids who are on social media all day doing nothing but comment come to gala. Besiktas fans are the worse in that case if u didnt know.
Galasmallaray. Rangers are clear
Rangers would lose to galatasaray 💀
Horrible club, let them get relegated in future years and the club will die.
Lol, where are you now? We are back.
I tell you what happened. Tge referees who were members of FETO terror organizations got fired from Turkish football federation. And galatasaray cannot get free penalties and favoritism like they had before.
Galatasaray small club, Constantinople will always be Greek !
Are you sure about that
get over it hahahahahaaha. Look who owns ISTANBUL now. Dont cry little greek boy.
