“We’ve made a fine start to the Turkish Super League season. Our rhythm and tempo were excellent in the first half. We could have been better in the second half. Ultimately, we won the game and kept another clean sheet. Now, we need to focus on Thursday’s Europa League match. We have to prepare well for that game, too.
 
I rested some players tonight, and those who replaced them  performed equally well. Regardless of who plays, we seem to preserve our character and identity. I am very happy about this because we will need everyone this season.”
