Reports have described Emre Belözoğlu’s meeting with Fenerbahçe players before their 3-2 win over Liverpool. A Spor and Son Dakika, citing Sabah, said he visited the squad at Samandıra to lift morale.

According to the report, Belözoğlu acknowledged supporters’ disappointment with recent results and said a Liverpool victory could change the atmosphere. The account comes from press reporting, rather than a complete speech recording released by the club.

The report also said Dirk Kuyt’s contribution during the match was viewed positively by management. The result gave Fenerbahçe their first Champions League win of the season. Preparations for the new coaching period continue following Belözoğlu’s first training session with the squad.
