Super Lig TOTS Predictions

Starting Eleven

Picking goalkeepers here was tough, not due to the lack of candidates or stand out performances, but simply due to the sheer volume of them. Our first pick goes with Galatasaray’s goalkeeper Muslera, a combination of his solid performances and bigger name, feels like it should be enough to see him make the cut. An average of 2.2 saves a match and management of his back line, are he key reasons he takes out first spot.

There is a good reason as to why Galatasaray sit atop the table, which is enforced by the volume of their players included within these predictions. With a massive 65 goals scored this season and just 30 conceded, Mariano has played his part in both. Defensively solid at the back and with 2 assists and 5 goals, he shows he is also a real danger going forward when required.

With Pepe’s move from Real Madrid to Besiktas in the summer, people have started to think his career was coming to an end. However, at the ripe old age of 35, he shows that there is still fight left in this defender yet. Besiktas have conceded just 24 goals so far this season, and a lot of that is due to their solid defensive line-up. Pepe has proved that you only retire when ready, and yet another team of the season card would prove that this could be years away yet.

Straight back onto the league leaders for this next pick, where we find a centre-back who was not only a monster at the back, but also has a rather impressive goal-scoring record. After playing almost every game this season, Maicon has helped Galatasaray to the top and his 5 goals scored this campaign, is simply the cherry on top.

The final defender making the starting eleven is Bursaspor’s fullback, Behich. Now while Bursaspor sit 13th in the table, with just 40 goals conceded they maintain a respectable defensive record. With 5 goals and 2 assists to his name as well, Behich shows that he is the complete package.

Onto the midfielders now, and first up is Fenerbahce’s Giuliano. With 58 goals scored so far this campaign, Giuliano has contributed to 14 of these. With 2238 minutes played in the league this year, 13 goals, 1 assists and 4 man of the match awards, this was one of the easiest inclusions for these predictions.

From one outstanding midfielder to another now, as we move on to Talisca, from Besiktas. Currently second in the league, Talisca has been a huge part of their success. With 12 goals, 4 assists and a massive 5 man of the match awards, this man cruises into the starting eleven and will provide an incredible blue card for FUT.

We move onto yet another Galatasaray player now and while Feghouli’s goals scored may initially appear a little lack-lustre at 6, the impact and influence this man has on the pitch, is nothing to be ignored. On top of the 6 scored, Feghouli has also provided 8 assists from just 20 starts this year. Surely he has done enough to make the cut.

Quaresma is next on our list and once again if you are simply looking at stats, this man may look incredibly underwhelming. With just 3 goals and 6 assists this season, we are looking elsewhere to justify this mans inclusion, but when we consider his 7.44 average match rating and 4 man of the match awards, Quaresma simply sails into the starting line-up.

Onto the strikers now and our first selection goes with Adebayor from Basaksehir. Firstly we need to take a moment to recognise just how incredible their season has been, currently sitting in third, just one point separates them and first place Galatasaray and with a handful of games remaining, everything can change. With 49 goals scored this campaign, Adebayor has been a part of over 25% of them. With 12 goals, an assist and 6, yes 6 man of the match awards, this guy is a lock for me.

Our final player to make the cut is Bafetimbi Gomis from Galatasaray. For this man we need to look no further than physical stats, to see just why he makes the cut. Galatasaray have scored 65 this campaign, and with 26 goals and 5 assists, Gomis has played a part in almost 50% it them. If there was one player you would bet your house on making the team; then it simply has to be Gomis.
