EL 2023/24 Play-Offs: Monaco - Fenerbahce

[janketa]

It goes way back, but Koc seems to have failure written on his face. With big bold letters.

Something extraordinary must happen in Monaco to snatch a win there. Remember the last year's game 5.

In fact it's better to lose there, we don't need one more humiliation on F4. I mean on fans not Koc and co

Remember the last year's game 5.

I predicted this outcome in some of my posts

From the moment Pierre came back from injury Saras limited Biberovis's minutes and Fener's decline started. Whoever followed Fener knows that Biberovic role made Fener much better and some important games were won because of him. Now we are back to last year Itoudis's mode(Davis-Pierre 40min) which means we will win one game in Istanbul and lose 2nd in last seconds, just this time it won't be Sloukas

Pure gamble with low odds. Did he ever score in the last offense of an EL game?

Terrible choice, classic Shitbekin Ball. He released the ball with 8 seconds remaining on the clock. Guduric deserved to use the last ball, he should have driven to the rim.

I like this nick, it sounds even better then wilbeclown

Saras should not have taken out Calathes and put in Wilbekin in to decide the game. Calathes was carrying the team. He would have taken a good decision. No guarantees, but a good decision. Why decide the season on a circus shot?

I didn’t watch the game but I feel sorry for our Fener friends. It seems like there could be a much better way to try to win the game. I still believe that they can win it in Monaco though.

Yes my friend, this is nightmare right now without any logic

Calathes isn't my type of player, he is opposite of what I like cos he is first of all bad shooter, but I never said a word against while all others pissed on him

There is a reason and that reason is his basketball IQ. While he was on the court we were good.

Thanks mate. Funny thing is every lose of Pao in basketball and football (second pard of the season) somehow makes Fener fans happy this season but you know, it's not about Pao. xD

Wilbekin wasn’t thinking. Never considered a pass. Saras put him in the game and he went straight to the basket. He took a bad and difficult shot being guarded by three players. It was a very poor choice.

Calathes shooting stats would not have mattered in this phase. Besides, he would probably have passed under these circumstances.

Last year Fener lost the Final Four because of Sloukas shot. It can happen. Just like Llull killed Olympiacos in the Final. Just like Micic killed Olympiacos two years before. All these players have a certain quality. But this Wilbekin shot was simply foolish.

I will be surprised if Fener can break Monaco again. Olympiacos and Maccabi have better chances for a break.

Edgar are you happy now? Watch your king last iso, FOR THE WIN

Saras showed why he couldn;t win anything with Barca

We are cursed from the moment when Koc arrived, one bad signing after another

I didn't watch because I respected the deal me and Spittifiz had... but I heard WilbeKing was crucial why Fener was in the game!!!!!

[Edgar]

Ok, seriously...I just watched the longest highlights possible. Why are people blaming WilbeKing? Because he didn't deliver at the end? Biberovic and Dorsey missed every open shot. Especially Biberovic in the 1st half. If they hit 30% shots they missed then Fener would win easily. Also Hayes missed some very open looks...

Come on, do you honestly think not delivering is the issue here? He both made a difficult shot and left them too many seconds. Obviously he is not the only reason Fener lost the game. Saras shouldn't have let it happen.

Longest highligt? How long? 2mins 3maybe? And you comment players and performance. For such biasing commenting of the team that isn't yours was enough to take a look on the boxscore,Biberovic awful percentage, Dorsey bad and that's it, they are guilty. Every fool and ignorant can draw such simple conclusion. But true is whoever watched the full game, knows who damaged ball movement, who didn't share the ball. During game I posted that Biberovic is even worse then wilbeclown because I have no problem with vanity, but Biberovic isn't highest payed player in the team, we didn't payed milion buyout for him, he had some big winner shoots this season. In the same time nobody can remember that high payed wilbeclown had a single winner shoot this season. Considering that every last offense is his iso and ball is his hands (except if he is injured), that is shamefull. We didn't lose just game but probably the whole EL season with that gambling on him.

If you remember we made a break when wilbeclown injured early in the game, without that incident serie would be over already, probably 3-1 for Monaco. I agree about your comments about last shoot, both last night and in general.

For Pao it was better if Fener passed to F4, because Monaco will be more harmful team for you then this and such Fener

[paspalj]

Lol at baby Koc trying to be the new DPG

I don't think there is that much of surprise element in favour of Fener victory despite it's an away game. I have a feeling that Barca, Pao and Fener will overcome their opponents.
