Monaco conceding two goals against 10 man Lyon and are losing 2:3.

So Monaco probably out of the title race and it's a CL race between Lyon and Monaco for the 3rd CL place. Monaco one point ahead.

He has been on fire since March when he scored 3 goals vs the Netherlands in World Cup qualifiers.

Crazy goals he’s scoring atm.

That second goal was a bullet.

Imma watch some YouTube vids to check how good he was in Turkey. Because the way he’s playing atm is not fluke imo but genuine quality that he already possessed.

Yo crazy stats for Burak in Turkey

Scored 55 goals in 72 games for Trabzonspor between 2010-2012.

Here is the vid of the 2011-2012 season where he scored 33 league goals


Then he moved to Galatasaray, where he scored 81 goals in 105 games between 2012-2016 seasons


He moved to China stayed there for two years, then came back to Turkey and played for Trabzonspor for one season(scored 28 goals in 32 games) and Besiktas for two seasons(scored 24 in 40 games).

Also he’s Turkeys national team second all time top goal scorer with 28 goals in 66 appearances.

So yeah this guy has actually been prolific for the previous clubs he played for. Plus when you look at the vids above you can tell it’s the same player we are watching now. He’s an assured finisher now but so was he back then, so it didn’t come overnight.

Only thing I would say that hindered him from playing in the top leagues is that he made his first breakout season in Turkey with Trabzonspor at the age of 26...so he was a very late bloomer.
