The company of my country turns. Until the day i mean youve done. Nothing done to leave. A pool and. Look on. The way through a 0 meets the year of. The greatest threat football is like a bridge its close. We just dont get it will not meet all the others this is all involved in most instances they really live a life through football. More than 80000000 people turkeys population is among the youngest in year old the country has big clubs and then amazing talent yet on the big stage they havent been successful made the. Report members teams the his parents and their managing their own members 1st though we are in istanbul to dive into turkey is that why british football culture. Meets past few rules and should in new generation. To learn more about politics and patriots isnt. Just one question i cant get out of my head why is turkey not a football powerhouse. Home an hour. One holds them back when they finally catch up lets go find out what we. War. And karo might mean turkeys capital but when it comes to football istanbul is the place to be. The clubs from istanbul have dominated turkish football for decades. They have the largest fan base of countries but whats it like when the National Team is in action. Is a different support for the club and for the National Team of course they seal team always comes 1st all gone all die for my team and our budget but its nice to know its your nation i said before we are quite like emotional people they think of course everybody god and i am not going to be sick that we are was not did not know our hearts on the cover they support fiercely about. Their home team doesnt get the same support. With us only when theyre really good its one of the. Theres high hype going around round they become comeback things and euro 2008. The whole nation go crazy for the comeback kid turkey have played a 2 tournaments where they showed what they can do. At euro 2008 they made it to the semi final in dramatic fashion losing to germany in the final for a few years only at the 2002 world cup another semifinal defeat and a 3rd place finish. But the hype is over turkey havent qualified for a world cup since then and only for one European Championship in 2016 they crashed out in the group stages right now in a way to the Turkish Football Federation every want to meet one of the turkish football legends its how many. Men you play football. Real madrid for right now hes working at the church. So hes going. To. Harmeet is now in charge of the youth team set up in turkish football the right men in the right place. Mentality it. Is the german mentality you learn just from a young age tommy post born in germany like many other famous turkish players recruiting tell him she was. Born and raised in other European Countries it was the Federation Strategy 4 years. d in the community. Well you can only rely on talents from abroad you also need to develop players yourself. How much of this clubs going about that im a doing enough. So thats what were here to find. One of the big 3 in the stuff. We have around 200. 00 schools are there on the chokey from the ages from 9. 00 to 14. 00 and. 11000 kids having training. Schools. Ok so yes or no. But why should know the best for. All schools means. Takes the. Best players and. Try. But even with the best coaches only a select few make it into the 1st team and into the super its especially hard for tuesdays talents to breakthrough in fact this super league has the highest average player age and europes top leagues almost 29. The premier league. Struck more want to. See. The management. Must believe in these kids the teams needs to give them the chance to play in the 1st 11 when i went to. The stadium and i said. Great now. I want to play you can dream here. Play that its a recurring tell them to play us like many. Initially you know and also. All of them left the country at a young age to make a name for themselves abroad none of them played for the big 3. Turkish sports media the media and the fans ok like for example with. Young kids they make a couple mistakes they get booed by their own fans and this has nothing to do with the different clubs this has to do with culture. Too much passion too much passion. You know. Too much passion too much pressure and then there is politics. President. Is a figure on the world stage but hes not just politics as a football fan himself even played professionally when he was younger. Lost the National Team and his footballing heroes. Like. 2016 of us charged with insulting president. The president. Being part of the movement seen as a terrorist group. The Union Movement behind the failed military coup. Left the country and is now in hiding in the united states. Now an enemy of the state. They dont even say his name on television anymore. Football is politicized in turkey and many players. During the qualifiers took his players gave him military. Does not allow political gestures and criticise the players of the Turkish Federation to pay 50000. 00 euros also because of the political context the salute was made during the military offensive in north and syria in october 21000. You lunch you do with. This found. But not everyone is on the same page when german born cod i know its called the late equaliser against france he refused to give the military salute to the ngo some teammates. There were like tensions going on in the team or Something Like that yes i noticed that but. This is something ships say. I dont get the columns. Hes playing in germany there most of the people the gesture. He prefer to spark the other perspective on. I wonder how the team got on at the euros especially with german bone players like khan i have. Some say patriotism and passion can lead you all the way others say you have to keep a cool head and its probably a bit of both. The ticks or sides of this turkish team are exciting to watch a golden generation in the making could they surprise us all again. You know. We believe in our team. And he will be there supports our team this one so we dont really its any of the Young Players that like i come where you just want them to show what they can do in this such big. Big then ive done all. The spirit and ive done all. Boarding george wanted something that says who will be british bonnie and i dont often. So we spend a couple of days and we had a great insight into the turkish football tookey its not a football powerhouse yet there are many problems but the potential is there the hope for a new.
