This books covers Atiba's time during his early days as a kid playing football on a local field behind his house with his friends and brother to him reaching the pinnacle of professional football at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. With his international career for the #CanMNT at the centre of the story, it covers his first steps in to European football with several trials at some major European clubs to his first professional contract with Östers IF in Sweden, his subsequent move to Helsingborg IF and his big transfer to FC Copenhagen where he won his first trophies. It continues with his troubled time at PSV Eindhoven, a difficult period in his career due to multiple knee surgeries and then continues with his decade long stint as a Black Eagle at Beşiktaş, where he ended his club career in 2023 before playing one last game for Canada in the semi-finals of the Gold Cup.
Kaan listened to the AUDIO version of the book read by narrator Odario Williams, available on Audible (see below for links).

Coming off of a disappointing loss of points in Trabzon last week, Beşiktaş have squeeked past a stubborn Eyüpspor side thanks to a late penalty goal by Ciro Immobile. The Black Eagles had found themselves in the lead thanks to a wonderful strike from Milot Rashica in the first half, but a penalty from Emre Akbaba had put the visitors level on the hour mark. Throughout the game, Eyüpspor made it very difficult for Beşiktaş to play their regular game and it took a late penalty by Ciro Immobile to clinch the 3 points.

As we do every season when the Black Eagles are competing in Europe, we sit down and talk to an expert on our European opponents. That means a lot of additional content this season with the format change to the European competitions! We're kicking things off this season with an interview with Dutch football pundit Yordi Yamali, Yordi is an especially interesting guest as he has a Turkish background. He started off his career in football punditry mainly as a podcaster, hosting such shows as Neutrale Kijkers and Tekengeld before becoming a frequently featured guest on Dutch television and now even a regular on ESPN NL. Yordi is a supporter of both Ajax and Galatasaray, but also a footballcoholic who we thought would make for the perfect guest for our first preview for the UEL League stages!

Despite a statistically dominant performance by Beşiktaş, the Black Eagles were held at a draw in Trabzon on Sunday. A disappointing result for Gio's men given the stiff competition at the top of the table. Sinan, Kaan and -- subbing in for Kartal -- Yasin discuss the performance by the Black Eagles. In addition we discuss, at length, the standards of officiating in the Turkish Süper Lig, how Beşiktaş are systematically penalized heavier than their rivals and how this impacts the playing field.

Beşiktaş signed Portuguese international João Mario from Benfica on a season long loan with obligation(?) to buy! Amartey, Ox and Aboubakar still refusing to leave the club, causing a massive headache. And Kartal, Kaan and Sinan will reflect on this past Summer's transfer window.

On Thursday Beşiktaş emphatically trashed Lugano in the UEFA Europa League play-off round to edge out the swiss 8-4 on aggregate after a 5-1 win at the Beşiktaş Tüpraş stadium. Goals from Ciro Immobile (2), Gedson Fernandes, Rafa Silva and Salih Uçan. The goal for the visitors came from their striker Vladi.
Following our discussion on the match, we'll be diving in to Friday's UEL league stage draw in which Beşiktaş were paired with Eintracht Frankfurt, AFC Ajax, Maccabi Tel-Aviv, Olympique Lyonnais, Bodo/Glimt, Malmö, Athletic Club de Bilbao and FC Twente. Sinan, Kartal and Kaan give their uneducated predictions on how they think the Black Eagles will fair against these opponents and how many points they'll talley.
Finally we discuss the latest team news, such as Felix Uduokhai's arrival, Necip Uysal's injury and Omar Colley's departure.
Our special guest Toyaa Hutchinson unfortunately could not make it and we'll reschedule her appearance on the show to a later date.

We remember former Beşiktaş coach Christoph Daum who sadly passed away yesterday following a long battle with cancer at the age of 70. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones, may he rest in peace.
In less somber news, Beşiktaş are on the verge of signing Augsburg's 26-year old left footed central defender Felix Uduokhai. He is set to arrive in Istanbul tonight.
And finally, our captain Necip Uysal has suffered a devastating injury during training yesterday: he has suffered a cruciate ligament tear and is expected to be out for 6-9 months. Get well soon Kaptan!

Beşiktaş were halted to a 3-3 away draw against Lugano last night despite taking the lead twice and going 1-3 up. Gedson Fernandes silenced his critics once again with a stellar performance and a brace, while Al-Musrati scored the third goal for the Black Eagles. But it wasn't enough to put the game beyond the stubborn Swiss side, as Lugano fought back in the first half after going a goal down and even more impressively in the second half after going two goals down.
Kartal, Sinan and Kaan will have plenty to say on the result and will also look forward to next week's return leg in Istanbul on the 29th of August, JUDGMENT DAY! (If you get that, we can be friends)

Following last week's win in the Süper Lig season opener against Samsunspor, Beşiktaş have now secured all 3 points against Antalyaspor aswell in their first home game at the Beşiktaş Tüpraş Park! The Black Eagles prevailed despite finding themselves a goal down after less than a minute, following a misplaced pass by Ciro Immobile from the kick-off. Our Italian star striker didn't waste much time however as he scored a first half brace to turn the game on it's head. In the second half Antalyaspor scored early again but this time Rafa Silva dotted the i's and put the Black Eagles back in front. Antalyaspor found themselves going down to ten men later on following a horror challenge by Güray on Rafa and in added time Ernest Muçi scored the fourth coming off the bench on a sublime trivela assist by Cher Ndour. Kartal, Kaan and Sinan will recap the game and give their thoughts on the performance of the Black Eagles. Later in the episode we'll also have an exclusive interview with FC Biel's Sporting director Oliver Zesiger, who'll give us his insights on our Europa League opponents FC Lugano!
