Some information about the current discussions on Cenk
- If it was last year, we would say he's no fit for the PL. But in the last 12 months he has improved greatly physically and I'd say he's ready for PL for Everton. He may not be good for City or united but he'd be a fit for Everton.
In addition to SuperLig games, he had an outstanding performance in National Team and more importantly in CL games. He was a total headache for the defences of Monaco, Leipzig and Porto. Until this year, he was a good finisher, but he now evolved into a great striker with monsterous actions in all around field. Superlig is more difficult for him, as the oppenents are playing 8-1-1 against Besiktas
- There are claims that SuperLig is [Poor language removed]. Thats a discussion but if we look into Besiktas' recent matches with PL teams... (Forget about the past
Current Besiktas team is a new team formed since 2012
2014/15 Arsenal 2 games aggregate 1-0 on Arsenal
2014/15 Tottenham 2 games aggregate 2-1 on Besiktas
2014/15 Livepool 2 games 1-1 draw and Besiktas kicked them out of EL competion after penalty shoot out.
The current squad is much more stronger and Besiktas could easily beat PL teams ranked under the first 6 and would give a lot of hard time to other top ranked teams with the exception of M.City.
So the league maybe a discussion but Besiktas' level is very high and Cenk is a leading figure in that team.
- He's a very good character and professional and this is the reason behind his continous develepment - he'd never be home sick for that reason.
- I dont think the deal is closed because if the offer was really 25 m Sterling, he'd be sold already. BJK President will not sell him for under 25 m euros and I think thats the reason the deal is still pending and BJK may choose to wait because he's on the list of a lot other teams for the year end.
