The Ankaragucu squad were back in training this week minus Gokhan Akkan, Aytac Oden, Gokhan Erdogan, Levent Kale and Batuhan Gulcan who have all left the club. This seasons squad will go down as arguably the youngest team in the 105 year history of the club.
The clubs coach Aykan Atik spoke today saying that the age of the team doesn't matter and these young players will fight with their hearts on the pitch. Its looking very unlikely that the transfer ban will be lifted and Ankaragucu will go into the season with the following squad.
Cihan Bal
Turgut Kirveli
Altay Bayandir
Metin Aydin
Metin Ilhan
Gurkan Alver
Volkan Geyik
Mehmet Tasci
Onur Atasayer
Muhammed Gonulacar
Harun Aydin
Orhan Evci
Hasan Ayaroglu
Hasan Kaya
Mashun Kara
Anil Saglam
Burak Keskin
Ali Sinan Gayla
Teoman Erkan
Emir Ozbey
Ramazan Adiguzel
There were also 7 players from the youth team promoted to the first team squad this season who are the following:
Arda Karademir
Batuhan Aslan
Mustafa Talha
Burak Oksuz
Yasin Can Demirici
Tamer Arici
Ahmet Arik
A tough season lies ahead for Ankaragucu and the only target we can realistically look at is fans, is avoiding relegation.
Agreed. Survival is the word. The Coach will obviously look on the positives, but the reality is that there are some strong teams in this division and it will be a successful season if a mid-table position is retained. Going into Division 3 is unthinkable and would be the beginning of the end for Ankaragucu !
ReplyDeleteThe defence will have their work cut out but what worries me is ........... where are the goals coming from. Teoman flatters to deceive and he really needs to instill some aggression into his game.
The bottom line is that the Kankas will be there to support this young team and give them encouragement. If they fight for every point then they will have the noisy support which Ankaragucu fans are famous for !!
I think we will see a lot more of Emir Ozbey this season. As you say Teoman flatters to deceive and he just doesnt have 15-20 goals a season in him.
