  1. Here is the full Greece 23-man squad for the 2014 World Cup: Goalkeepers: Orestis Karnezis (Granada), Panayiotis Glykos (PAOK) and Stefanos Kapino (Panathinaikos) Defenders: Costas Manolas, Jose Holebas (both Olympiakos), Sokratis Papastathopoulos (Borussia Dortmund), Vangelis Moras (Verona), Giorgos Tzavellas (PAOK), Loukas Vyntra (Levante) and Vassilis Torosidis (Roma). Midfielders: Alexandros Tziolis (Kayserispor), Andreas Samaris, Yiannis Maniatis (both Olympiakos), Costas Katsouranis (PAOK), Giorgos Karagounis (Fulham), Panayiotis Tachtsidis (Torino), Yiannis Fetfatzidis (Genoa), Lazaros Christodoulopoulos and Panayiotis Kone (both Bologna) Strikers: Dimitris Salpingidis (PAOK), Giorgos Samaras (Celtic), Costas Mitroglou (Fulham) and Fanis Gekas (Konyaspor).
  2. Not bad for a year's worth of games, but I would take PAOK as the best for 2014 with Panathinaikos a close second, with a very strong finish. Let's not forget that they (PAOK) played decimated against you (key players unjustifiably penalized for previous game against Olympiakos) at the Greek cup final. And on top of that they started the Super League playoffs having a deficit in points. But I agree 100% with your second sentence, that "cultivating young talent that really wants to give 100% is the best recipe for success. At least in countries like Greece." Good luck to your team at next fall's Champions League tournament.

Midfielders: Alexandros Tziolis (Kayserispor), Andreas Samaris (Olympiakos), Kostas Katsouranis (PAOK), Giorgos Karagounis (Fulham), Panagiotis Tachtsidis (Torino), Sotiris Ninis (PAOK), Ioannis Fetfatzidis (Genoa), Kostas Fortounis (Kaiserslautern), Lazaros Christodoulopoulos (Bologna) Panagiotis Kone (Bologna).

  4. Thanks for the update. He looks like a player with a bright future ahead.
  5. Gekas signs with Torku Konyaspor. He looks good in Green! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub2B4wGgANM
  6. And he missed a bunch of opportunities (and a penatly too). Not bad, huh?
  7. Here is the goal by Kone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvgV0RtQTKs
  8. Thanks for the link. It was entertaining. He missed like 7-8 chances. Not to mention the lost penalty. :tup:
  9. I don't think professional athletes have such rights. They surrender those rights as soon as they sign a contract, on the dotted line. Their actions and/or words are subject to the league's rules of conduct. At least that's the way it is in the US. Without being 100% certain, I suspect the same rules would apply to UEFA and FIFA.
  10. Ignorance is no defense. It does not stand in any court of law.
  11. EPO bans Katidis for life from any and all National Team competitions because he celebrated his goal with a Nazi salute Watch on Daily Motion The 20-year-old Katidis pleaded ignorance of the meaning of his gesture ? right arm extended and hand straightened. He claimed on his Twitter account that he detests fascism.
  12. Greek football federation announced Friday a restructuring of the top leagues starting next season with the Super League expanding from 16 to 18 teams. Read more... Every couple of years or so, the Greek league keeps switching things - reshuffling and spinning thing around. Probably so everbody stays perpetually confused. I don't think it's going to make much of a difference in terms of quality football. And honestly, I don't understand why they keep switching things around every couple of years.
  13. Gekas has been the top goalscorer of the Greek League and the Bundesliga in previous seasons. He was the top goalscorer of the Europe section of 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification for scoring ten goals in Greece's successful qualifying campaign.From Wikipedia: Need more proof? He's a gun for hire. !
  14. QUOTE (js1000 @ Feb 9 2013, 05:13 PM) another 2 today :tup: :tup: Amazing! This man was born to score goals!
  15. A 3 minute highlights and interview video from MEGA is posted on the Phantis main site.
  16. Well, this one is not so great, but it is definitely one of a kind!!!!
  17. Video highlights of the game are available here from Sport.gr. Nice execution from Gekas. Samsunspor needs a better goalkeeper.
  18. The show has started for Samsunspor. Gekas puts two past Orduspor 2-0. THis is what he does. Always in the right place at the right time!
  19. He's looking good! Thanks for the pics (link) GS1905
  20. Speak for yourself buddy. Please don't come in here and try to insult the users of these forums because they don't fall right away for what it is you are trying to sell.
  21. :huh?: I'm speechless!!!! And you're trying to sell people here what? Is this a pre-taste to EllasTV customer service?
  22. Sorry, I missed this one. Well we got the View New Posts link and the Today's active topics Have you seen this "feature" somewhere else? Can you point me to it? Just so I get a visual idea of how it works.
