They were already talking with other managers while Tedesco was still in charge and in the middle of a title race. He knew about it, yet he stayed professional and made us believe again in the final gameweeks, despite not having a proven striker at his disposal. In that same press conference (the one after the celebration), he said: “I hope to be Fenerbahce’s coach next season.” That statement clearly had a deeper meaning and we have only discovered the truth today..
Everyone can have their own opinion about Tedesco tactically, but the way they stabbed him in the back just to save their own faces is the biggest reason why Fenerbahce can’t return to being a successful football club. No one cares about Fenerbahce, they are just trying to do their own PR and feed their own egos through Fenerbahce.
Saran himself said before getting elected that Ali Koc left Mourinho all alone, which is why Mourinho failed. 9 months later, he did the exact same thing with Tedesco.
Tedesco won 5 out of 7 derbies with a team he didn’t build himself and without having a proper training camp. He asked for a striker, instead they sent away 3 strikers and failed to get Lookman. After his only derby loss, he took full responsibility and said: “Blame me, not the players or anyone else.”
The board’s only response was after all of these failures was “Sakin ha sezonu” once again trying to save their own faces. Shame on everyone involved in that board.
I hope Tedesco becomes successful somewhere else.
