>80m people >obsessed with football >one of the richest leagues in "europe" >some of the most supported clubs in "europe" >still never achieved anything in football
why are they so awful at football? why are their football clubs so awful at football? 1 world cup semi and 1 UEFA cup is an absolutely disgraceful output for the country with the 2nd largest population in Europe
Only the Istanbul teams are somewhat rich, the rest of the country is one big poverty-ridden, backwards, incestuous shithole
Also, Turks and Arabs are just generally shit at sports.
Austin Lopez
They're roaches that's why.
Jace Murphy
1. corruption 2. turks would prefer losing and trying to figure out what went wrong then actually succeeding, its a weird state of existence 3. its middle east
Gavin Lopez
Swap out 80m with 50m and you described England.
Nolan Hall
The absolute black of this kettle
Jason Gray
bad management no consistency or really planning at almost anything anatolian çomars and kurds lazy people youth development is quite substandard
Benjamin Cook

>17m people >obsessed with football >historically one of the top tier leagues in Europe (not anymore though) >Won a European Championship and reached a whole bunch of finals and semi-finals >revolutionised football twice >again, 17m people Can roaches even compete?
Andrew Reyes

Jordan Lee
U r gay
Samuel Fisher
they are shit at everything, it's a personality thing.
Ethan Rodriguez
They made it to the Semis and won 3rd place in 2002 with players like Hakan Sukur.
There are so many underachievers in international football, Spain did barely anything up until 10 years ago and sides like Wales and Belgium have had huge developments recently.
Ryder Watson
watch out
Samuel Cooper
The "middle income countries are the best at football" meme only really applies to Brazil and Argentina. And maybe edge cases like Croatia and BiH (helped by diaspora, but Turkey has a huge diaspora too) that punch way above their weight.
Russia, Turkey, Mexico, Egypt etc. don't have anything like the sporting infrastructure of western euro countries
Ethan Rodriguez
Thats america faggot
Carson Wood
What do you expect a roach to accomplish? The're insects.
Luke Smith
ues i literally said that in the post you twat
Ian Howard
>They made it to the Semis and won 3rd place in 2002 with players like Hakan Sukur.
I LITERALLY SAID THIS IN THE POST AS WELL
DO YOU THICK CUNTS NOT READ??
Caleb Hughes
>lumping in a country of 80m and countries of 3m and 15m as same-tier underachievers
Ryan Adams
>World Cup >a few semis >a shitload of Champions Leagues and Europa leagues We're fairly crap, but Turkey is another level of shit
Hunter Nguyen
i really enjoy the turkish team, they seem kind of weaker south americans to me. plenty of skill but weak, soft, with no defensive backbone
Gavin Johnson
India, China & a fucktonne of African countries have always been terrible whilst having ridiculously high populations. There's more to it than just who has the most people h Germany, Italy, Argentina & particularly Uruguay a testament to that
You're not fooling anyone here pal, you're as thick as a swimming pool full of custard.
Luke Lopez
mentality and education. players are refusing to learn new things.
Aaron Perez
Shit genes+shit tier infrastructure
Jordan Perez
When was the second time?
Kayden Brooks
They've advanced further in the euros recently than your country
Luke Ortiz
T*rkish culture isn't conducive to team sports. Or any sort of relevant achievements at all, really.
Joseph Allen
They buy ageing unmotivated international stars cashing their last paycheque instead of investing in developing local talent
#cometobesiktas
Parker Anderson
nobody gives a shit about youth academies and trainers there are absolute morons.
that's why 4 million turks in germany and europe in general make half of the starting 11 of the national football team + ozil, emre can, gundogan etc.
Landon Harris
By that logic we won 2 world wars too...
Leo Allen
we don't have the money to buy younger expensive players under these market conditions.
plus there is ffp agreements, can make net spending in transfers.
