My husband and son are Gala fans; I am on the enemy side (Fener) which you probably have not heard about. Gala (Galatasaray) is the only really internationally competent team in this country. Their technical director is local and very good. One of its players, Hakan, is a top rated offence player in Europe. Unfortunately his emotional condition prevents him from actualizing his potential. He is withdrawn and oscillates between moods. I think he is a 6 because he also carries doubts about the intentions of his club management during transfer periods. He is led by his father mostly. Could I be right about typing him?
