Dean97 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Skibbe now has to play his best players going forward, no questions asked. It's crazy how many players he hasn't called up yet. Fetfatzidis, Siovas, Lampropoulos, Vasilakakis, Paschalakis and so on. Oikonomou to me is not better than Lampropoulos and certainly not better than Siovas. Bakasetas is not better than Fetfatzidis. Also what about Vlachodimos. I'm not sure but I don't know if Tzavellas and Tziolis will he called up again, I'm not betting against it though. EPO would want them called up because of the cash flow they receive from them. This has caused Holebas to retire and has sabotaged us like their is no tomorrow. There is no point in calling them up if your not going to play them. Look what happened against Hungary. Both goals were Tzavellas fault. It's a waste of 2 spots. But EPO won't see this because they are greedy. Also why would Koulouris be called up from the 21s? There are plenty of better players there and I would rather have Manias or Manos instead of Koulouris at the moment.

Yes if they were smart they would get rid of him seeing as we are in a cream puff group and are blowing a golden opportunity to top this weak group and a chance of going to Euro via the Nations League. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stafylidis and Lyko on transfermarket, are listed as LB's re maik. Staf might go ok at RB anyway I guess. Tsimikas might be an option, although for a more adventurous manager.

J1078 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) Regardless what happens the next two games if we don’t top this group Skibbe willl be fired and we will have a new manager to start the euro campaign.. The fact that Mitro was fine and ready to start against Hungary but skibbe put Donis as a striker instead of Mitro should get the guy fired...

Dean97 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I like this idea of how Skibbe job is on the line. We can now play our best players going forward. The team will be on fire as well as Skibbe now has to win at all costs. No more Tziolis and Tzavellas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s great that the EPO has put this ultimatum on Skibbe. My question is if the EPO fires him who do they hire next? Hopefully it’s not another low budget coach and then we have more issues for the Euro qualifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Mendel Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 The respite that Skibbe has gotten can do us something good though. Maybe EPO will find a better solution than Anastasiadis until October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ausgreek Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Green Gully Cavaliers have parted ways with Arthur Pappas head coach. EPO, there is a red hot tip right there, or Johnny Kosmina or Ange?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgelaz Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 me and my buddy discussed who could take over if skibbe is gone he suggested Conte, Morinho (if he gets sacked), Zidane or Wenger I think Mourinho would be great but I think all of the above are too good for our NT sadly. From the above I think Mourinho would do the best job. Portugese highly respect Greece and Mourinho is heavy on the defense. He'd probably start Siovas Manolas Sokratis Retsos Kpaps in the starting 11 and we'd be a wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paokarag4 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Come on George, none of those guys are fit to carry Alefantos's clip board. Alefantos is the messiah, he has a tv show and screams and punches the desk!! He must know what he's on about!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgelaz Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I think alefantos would be good still. If he's good enough for olympiakos he's good enough for the NT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ausgreek Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) I figured if my auntie had balls she would be my uncle., therefore, call ups to Galanopoulos, Androutsos and Manias at the expense of Tziolis, Bakasetas and Tzavellas. The squad doesn't need 3 LB (Lyko, Giannouli and Tzav), thats stupid by Sibbe. Edited September 22, 2018 by ausgreek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxou Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 androutsos? he doesn't even remember himself when he last played a game for olympiakos. why call him up? siopis is more useful at the moment. bouchalakis was quite disappointing in olympiakos-betis game...he got subbed off in the 35th minute cause of his awful display.....

Dean97 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I don't know why Martins doesn't put more trust in Androutsos. He is better than Bouchalakis in my opinion. More technical, good passer, runs alot and is more of pure 8. Galanopoulos should of had 4 caps by now. It's pathetic that he only has 1. Androutsos and Galanopoulos are more talented and will be our future mids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean97 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 He should have for sure. No point in sitting on the bench. He is talented though and this was the only coach who doesn't want him. These things happen. Androutsos is still young and has time. I hope he doesn't end us up as Ninis situation. I don't think he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkarachr606 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 My recommendation for manager would be Mick Mccarthy but I doubt he would take the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgelaz Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) my ideal line up if everyone was playing and in form (this mostly applies to Samaris right now) mitroglou donis fortounis fetfa zeca samaris holebas sok man retsos karnezis currently form wise I'd probably go with this mitroglou donis fortounis lazaros/pelkas zeca kourbelis holebas sok man bakakis barkas Edited September 24, 2018 by georgelaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxou Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 george you need to realise that's it's been 2 years since holebas retired..no point on putting him into your line ups anymore bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxou Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 also since sokratis picked up an injury, in case he misses the game i think oikonomou will start instead of him. retsos is also injured, so is papadopoulos and siovas doesn't get any call ups. ofc the injury could minnow so he can attend the game.
