The departed: Süper Lig coaches remain as expendable as ever
In the last 10 years of the Süper Lig, 352 coaching changes were made in total. Denizlispor has had 29 coaches in the past decade. Başakşehir has the most stable record with seven. 10 coaches have lost their jobs in 15 weeks since the start of this season. Statistics can be wrong, but betting on coaches being blamed at the first sign of trouble would yield dividends. The winning team or team relegated to the second-tier TFF 1. Ligi.
Antalyaspor's Tamer Tuna was the first coach to be sacked this season. Trabzonspor sacked Eddie Newton after just seven matches. Kasımpaşa fired Mehmet Altıparmak after seven games. Kayserispor announced the departure of Bayram Bektaş after 7 matches, and it was as if the club had just won the game against Trabsonsor.
Erzurumspor parted ways with two coaches this year. Hüseyin Çimşir was dismissed after just five matches. President Huysey in Üneş resigned earlier this month. Turkish football has a tradition of shuffling coaches around. It's a problem for Turkish players and coaches. The tradition will continue to exist.
