Go Marsel! :yeah: I can't find any pics from the match at all, even though it was on Grandstand. :rolleyes:

Hopefully he can play well against Monaco now. :bounce:

:haha: I don't have this song but I will do my best to find it. I'm pretty sure I can find it, I know some Turkish forums. but I'll do it sunday night. It's great that you are a fan of the goalie Volkan :D he desperately needs fans! the song is an encouragement song for the team. like "come on, let everyone hear this voice, let's go" type of thing.

Also good news Marsel fans! Marsel will play Hewitt on the centre court in Barcelona, so hopefully there will be a stream. :)

Hewitt is still a class player despite being older. He is way past his prime, but still, players like this are still tough to beat for Marsel. I think he did well to win that 2nd set. I checked scores and he was up 3-1, and checked again later and he was down 3-4 I think, so a positive is that he was able to hold on and take that set. :)

Here's some pics:





So many of Hewitt and only two of Marsel... :ras:

I hope Adidas will start dress him in collection a little bit fresher. I remember how upset I was to see Marsel wearing Adidas Edge Line for US Open 2009 on Australian Open 2010. Now he is wearing Edge line for Aussie Open'10 on clay.

Well he isn't really a marquee player for them... Do we know for sure that he is even in a sponsorship deal with adidas? He could just be wearing the brand because he likes it.

No, he has contract with Adidas - now he has I mean. Because I don't know if he had it during Aussie Open. All Adidas guys wore special Aussie lines except Marsel.

OK, let's see what he will wear on RG (hope he'll make Main Draw).

How are you sure that he has a contract?

And even if he does have one, he is not very well known so it wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't wearing the new lines of clothing as soon as they come out and the top players wear them. :) It doesn't seem unusual to me.
