Scoring charts

Vedat Muriqi tops the scoring charts

Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 4 goals in 3 appearances for Fenerbahce.

Scoring charts

İrfan Can Kahveci is the division's player of the month — 8.23

A club's paper reports this as one of its own being honoured. On this page it is what it actually is: a verdict on everybody who played, and it went to a Kasimpasa man on 8.23 with 4 goal contributions.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Alanyaspor

Ruan was marked 7.58 and had a hand in 1 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Market

Ruan asks to leave Alanyaspor

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Sivasspor say no — this time

The offer from Sanfrecce Hiroshima for Rey Manaj was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Youssef Aït Bennasser’s move to Trabzonspor falls through

The deal that would have taken Youssef Aït Bennasser to Trabzonspor has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Kayserispor with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Scoring charts

Tarık Çetin leads the division for assists — 7.33

The chart that decides who the scorers ought to be thanking. 3 of them made by a Fenerbahce player marked 7.33, and not one will be in the montage at the end of the season.

Market

Okay Yokuşlu is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Trabzonspor is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Scoring charts

Ianis Hagi is the division's best-marked player — 8.58

The chart that catches everybody a goal tally never will: the centre-half who was immense for four weekends, the holding midfielder nobody outside his own ground has heard of. 8.58 across 3 matches for Alanyaspor.

Scoring charts

Still scoring: Clayton

3 in 4 for Besiktas. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Scoring charts

Fedor Chalov up among the month's scorers

A productive month at Kayserispor — 3 goals from 4 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.

Scoring charts

İrfan Can Kahveci makes the list

4 appearances, 4 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

Scoring charts

Nobody scored more than Rey Manaj

The month closes with Rey Manaj out in front — 6 goals in 4 games, and Sivasspor have the division's most feared finisher.

Scoring charts

The month belonged to Noah Saviolo

Marked 8.44 across it, 3 goals and assists between them, and no serious argument from anybody else in the division. Galatasaray have had the whole benefit of a month somebody else will spend the summer trying to buy.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Alanyaspor

Ricardo Mathias was marked 8.05 and had a hand in 5 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Market

Bertuğ Yıldırım puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Basaksehir, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Besiktas come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Basaksehir did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

The Barcelona deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Barış Alper Yılmaz reports back to Galatasaray with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Scoring charts

Nobody made more than Gökhan Akkan this month

4 assists, 6.08, and a Sivasspor player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.

Market

Fenerbahce join the queue for Ianis Hagi

Add another name to the list: Fenerbahce have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Ianis Hagi. The answer from Alanyaspor has not changed — yet.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Galatasaray man

Noah Saviolo averaged 8.44 over 5 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Scoring charts

Still scoring: Facundo Castro

4 in 5 for Kasimpasa. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Scoring charts

Marco Asensio keeps the pressure on

3 goals in 5 appearances for Fenerbahce leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

Oğuz Aydın keeps the pressure on

4 goals in 5 appearances for Ankaragucu leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Davinson Sánchez is the division's player of the month — 8.73

A club's paper reports this as one of its own being honoured. On this page it is what it actually is: a verdict on everybody who played, and it went to a Galatasaray man on 8.73 with 3 goal contributions.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Trabzonspor U20

Christ Inao Oulaï was marked 7.95 and had a hand in 1 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Market

Benny hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Umraniyespor can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Deportes Tolima come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Sivasspor did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Scoring charts

Tomás Mejías leads the division for assists — 6.17

The chart that decides who the scorers ought to be thanking. 5 of them made by a Hatayspor player marked 6.17, and not one will be in the montage at the end of the season.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Galatasaray man

Barış Alper Yılmaz averaged 9.00 over 3 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Market

Arsenii Batahov wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Trabzonspor hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Scoring charts

Kristjan Asllani keeps the pressure on

3 goals in 3 appearances for Besiktas leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

İrfan Can Kahveci makes the list

4 appearances, 3 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

Scoring charts

İzzet Çelik is right behind him

3 goals in 4 appearances for Hatayspor, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

Ivo Visona is the month's best young player — 7.87

The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 7.87 over the month and 3 goal contributions, from a Fatih Karagumruk player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.

Market

Rodrigo Mazur puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Konyaspor, and it is not being withdrawn.

Ruan wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Scoring charts

Isaac Success is right behind him

3 goals in 4 appearances for Giresunspor, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Trabzonspor may not be able to give Arsenii Batahov what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Arsenii Batahov wants continental football; whether Trabzonspor can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.
