Kerem Bulut

that is why he left

IN retrospect Bulut's cameo at the Wanderers arguably did more for him than for us. Yes, he certainly did demonstrate an energy and arguably a level of commitment to a pressing game that the rest of those around him were at times lacking. Some of his goal scoring heroics (most notably the double against the smurfs) were just that; heroic. He must also be given his due when it comes to how the fans reacted to him; the connection not just in how he was often giving us rare bright spots in some ordinary results, but also the cultural, local kid come home aspect were both remarkable. But...

Perhaps I'm being too harsh, or just being a contrarian, but I found his on field egotism at times too much to bear. A good striker needs to be very self-possessed, and the greatest can be fooking arrogant pricks (hello Suarez). There were times that you would see Kerem carrying on like a 3 year old having a tanty and it would piss off one and all. That offside incident that many have referred to before is a classic case.

I appreciate his time in the red and black and once you don the club shirt there is already an aura placed on you (except perhaps Adam Madaschi) as far as I'm concerned. Bulut was probably the biggest individual success on the park this season for us however when push comes to shove this is a team sport, and I'm yet to be convinced how well Bulut sits within a team culture. For example, even though we all know that Berisha is an A-Grade dickhead when it comes to his antics on the pitch against the relevant oppo, he never gives the impression he puts himself above his team mates. There were times during 2014/15 when Kerem came across as thinking less about the team and more about himself.

Best of luck to him in any overseas ventures he might have, and if he was to end up at say a Newy Jets or maybe a CMM even then I'd be wishing him well. If however he ended up at say the smurfs or such like in the A-League he can get somewhat stuffed...

Any word on where bulut is going ?

Unfortunately its not the Wanderers.

Apparently he went to Iraklis in Greece but isn't going to be signed.

See Nick's post on Twitter about Kerem's medical and 'character problems'...

Interesting..!

RT @paultdickinson: Regardless of false media reports Kerem Bulut has signed with Greek Super League club, Iraklis FC. @FOXSportsAUS @TheWorldGame

The only person in the world right now going to Greece to get more money? I think he is being ill advised or didn't watch the news for the past year... 

Also refer to WSWbrotherhood who also posted a bit of a blurb on Kerem Bulut!

Don't think football is a big issue in terms of money flowing through the game, just hope that the Greek football clubs aren't run like the Greek economy. You'll probably find football is probably a massive part of there lives over there with so much of the economy struggling & so many people going through hard times, football is the outlet they need in which they can escape for 90 minutes to enjoy themselves.

If you are looking for work in Greece, get a job in the flare business. They like the flares

How do they test players on "character problems"?

How do they test players on "character problems"?

Lock them in a room with their future captain and time how long it takes before they try to punch them?

Put them in an offside position on the training pitch then take a shot at goal without passing to him?

How do they test players on "character problems"?

Maybe they watched footage of him interacting with his ex WSW team mates on the pitch?

Yeah, sounds about right..I think this was the video:

I'll just restate that I'm not sure they actually undertook testing or whether they just used this as an excuse if they had any second thoughts about signing him.

The club probably went to the ATM to get his first payment out, got declined then said "um yeah... character problems... can't sign you."

This needs to be trending on Twitter...

#ClubsCategoricallyNotSigningKerem

Poor blokes probably been mistaken for an ultra.

apparently he spat the dummy at training and carried on like a ****wit

senior players in the squad said they didn't want him around

It appears nobody knows what's going on!

He may well end up at the first A League club to throw him a bone.

Why Kerem, why couldn't you pull your head in and you'd still be with WSW ?

Sounds like he might have signed a 2 year deal with Iraklis.
