Following Fenerbahçe's draw with Gaziantep FK, sports writers evaluated the performances of the technical staff, management, and players.

Loss away at Gaziantep

By drawing away against Gaziantep FK, Fenerbahçe lost a total of 8 points in the first five weeks of the league and suffered a blow in the title race. Sports writers emphasized that the football displayed by the team is insufficient for the championship.

Kerem Aktürkoğlu at the center of criticism

Falling far short of expectations in the match, Kerem Aktürkoğlu was accused by writers of making the team play short-handed due to his turnovers in attack and ineffective play. The young player's performance drew the reaction of fans and experts.

Lukaku and Greenwood in the forward line

While Lukaku's lack of physical readiness and his inadequacy in physical duels were criticized, it was stated that the team's attacking burden largely remained on Greenwood's individual efforts.

İsmail Kartal and squad planning
