TEAM OF THE WEEK

Bandirma Kirmizi

Selcuk Ernak’s young fellas doing great job! That team got only 2 foreign players and that team age average is 20.0! This week, Bandirma Kirmizi beat Aliaga Petkim. I think, Bandirma Kirmizi deserved that. 

TOP 5 PLAYER OF THE WEEK

Jamon Gordon (Galatasaray MP)
Jonathan Gibson (Trabzonspor)
Taurean Green (TOFAS)
Vladimir Stimac (Olin Edirne)
Bradley Buckman (TOFAS)

COACH OF THE WEEK

Selcuk Ernak (Bandirma Kirmizi)

When Selcuk Ernak comes to Bandirma Kirmizi, that team got 0 win. After his arrival, Bandirma Kirmizi got 3 W. Maybe, this year Bandirma Kirmizi will be relegated but after Ernak arrived as head, that team deserve respect in the league.
