Since our next game is 2 weeks away,i wanted to started a general discusion place that we can all comment on anything and everything that we like or not like about Olympiakos.

I will start with something that i dont like so far.Olympiakos and Marinakis this summer tried to cover the way to MANY holes that we had in our roster in every area,Defence,Midfield and Forwards.I am mostly pleased with the players and the ammount of solutions that we got in almost every spot with the excemption of DM(Defensive Midfield).Olympiakos for many years has been hurting in that spot and for me that is propably the most important spot in todays football since the player in that spot and the ammount of abilities that he has might make a good club better or a great club greater.Olympiakos for me has limited solutions there,Hurtado,Dudu and G.Papadopoulos.With the excemption of Hurtado that we have not seen for more than 45min and 3-4 days only with the club,Dudu is not a clean cut DM,he has a big body and he can not run and cover for 90min the whole area in front of our defence and also G.Papadopoulos is way to soft and technical for the spot.I consider them as CM(Center midfileders) really than DM.Olympiakos should have kept Katsikogiannis in our roster.A young guy that had a great half season with OFI last year(he was one of their best players in almost every game he played) that has the stamina to run and mark people for 90 min and also to develop better around more talented players in Olympiakos.Valverde said that he is ok with the current roster and i really hope that we have no injuries and everything works out great but to go from having Stoltidi-Patsatzoglou-Ledesma and proving that they were not enough to just having Hurtado and 2 guys that can try to play the spot but are NOT DMs is semi tricky for me.Olympiakos will face for most of the season with the excemption of games against PAO-AEK-PAOK & ARIS close defences with 11 players defending and rellying on the counter attacks.Something like Iraklis did last saturday.You need a DM that can stop them before they become a threat to our defence.I have faith in Valverde that he is a good coach,good with his players and not a Diva and that he will get 100% of them on the pitch when everybody gets to know each other better and play as a team but 1 more DM would not have hurt us.I hope it does not at the end.

what a LOSER! just further proves how classless this man is...he sounds like a gavro fan from the local kafenio..

Savas Theodoridis is just another "grafikos" greek team supporter.If you listen to radio or read some other greek teams blogs you will find that 50% of EVERY greek team supporter is only able to live,talk and breath the colour of his team so i am not supriced by it.Nobody is willing to be normal and 100% honest and actually give credit when is due to another team and give damn to theirs when is not performing.Listen to sportfm and you will find many and plenty reds,greens,yellows or blacks that you just wish to able to slap them silly for what they say and believe.Greece as a country is a BIG KAFENEIO that everybody does and says whatever they feel like.....EPO is a bunch of little people with no real power,refs that are either friends of some clubs or afraid of losing their jobs or are plain useless and not great to begin with,media and press with only purpose to put more oil to the fire and feed the madness of absolute fanatism,team presidents that do nothing about the violence or improving the product that they sell,FOOTBALL,Super league with special rules and terms for the few big teams and f..k the rest clubs and then the few "normal" ones here watching the other leagues(English,Spanish,Italian) and dreaming of our level actually 1 day to get closer to their standards.Theodoridis is just doing the same thing that Georgiadis was doing a few years back....asking for the refs to be extra helpfull to the big clubs... :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

So, when do you think Valverde's chair will break a leg? I reckon before the end of the year. :P

Marinakis is not Kokkalis.I believe that he will give Valverde the whole 2 years that he has signed him for.He likes him and he understands that every coach needs time to work and then at the end you can judge if he has done a good work or not.Didn't you see what Mourinio said after the draw that Real Madrid had last weekend."I am not Harry Poter.There is no magic wand in soccer.I started with draws in both Parto and Inter but at the end of the year i won the titles." ;)

Today G.Papadopoulos will start practicing with the rest of the squad since he has fully recovered from his injury.Zairi is expected to join the team tomorrow so Olympiakos might have everybody ready and available for next week SL game.

Im here to talk about the stuff of what Olympiakos should do in the champions league super league and kypello next season 2015/16
 

1st: get 2 new CBs

 

2nd: keep mitroglou and the remaining strikers we have diamantakos, jara, benitez. i think Mitroglou will start firing up next season

 

3rd: loan out players like giannoulis, avlonitis, vouros vergos saliakas to fellow superleague teams.

 

4th: get rid of botia and keep milivojevic 

 

5th: i believe we should not loan out this time vlachodimos, kolovos as they are top talent and can be useful in the kipello to rest the likes of affelay, dominguez....

i believe we should also play bouchalakis more.

 

6th: Santana must stay and find a solid if not 2cb to play next him. go for a player that can play holding midfield as aswell as CB

 

My roster:

Roberto Megyeri Cheutesiotis, Gianniotis, Salino, Elabdelaoui, Santana, Siovas, ?CB, ?CB, Leandro, Mazouaku, Kasami, Maniatis ©, Milivojevic, Dominguez, Fuster, Yatabare, Kolovos, Vlachodimos, Bouchalakis, Ndinga, Fortounis, Affelay, Durmaz, Diamantakos, Jara, Benitez, Mitroglou, Ioannidis 

 

This is the roster 30 players. the rest are either sold, loaned out and or back in the youth team.

 

to sum up this roster is for building up players and being solid for cup games and champions league

How can Gianniotas be in our lineup where we got players like Kolovos and Vlachodimos coming back from loan where will he fit where will Kolovos fit and Vlachdomios fit in the squad id rather play Kolovos and i still find Vlachodimos a promising player.

Its alright boys, Im back too.  Ill try and bring back a few of the others.  They all fled to an Olympiakos forum about 6 months to a year before gs.com went under so its going to be hard to bring them over.

'they' blame Marinakis for EVERYTHING bad thats happening in Greece to them.

 

But then they finally have a fair referee in Europe with a 2-1 advantage, and they get humiliated 3-0.

 

What a joke. what a joke. Please what's the excuse?

then the guys from the north last season also blame us....

 

they fail to look at the fact that whilst we are beating Juve, and Athletico .....they are losing to teams in Moldova...eliminated in the cup by Kavala...copping 3 and 4 from Xanthi, PAS, Asteras, Atromitos.....but somehow this is all our fault???

Thats all I've heard aswell. You know we did have other owners before Marinaikis and we still won the league 10 years in a row it's not our fault we keep Winning and 2nd team with the most league wins is Panathinaikos so it's not rigged. We lost to Pas Giannina 2-1in 2014 was that rigged aswell?

we are somehow good enough to beat Marseille , Man Utd,  Dortmund, Lazio, Werder, Juve, Benfica and others...whilst these guys lose to  part timers from obscure parts of the world and domestically can't be consistent against  PAS, Platanias etc...yet it always points to corruption?

 

The classic game was the Apollon v PAOK game 2 years ago...it finished 3-4..the score could have been anything..it was open and full of chances at either end for 95 mins....in hindsight had Apollon won they would have avoided relegation...but both clubs in the end seemed to want to blame us for their demise...yet thy hold their fate in their own hands..

It would benefit every Greek football fan to see PAO get a new owner.

 

President of PAOK would not complain so much and still doesnt complain so much if he wasnt all wired up by Alafouzos, who is wanted in Romania for doing illegal business and ownes so much taxes to the Greek government that somehow he is lucky not to be in jail in one of those 2 countries.

 

President of AEK is not upset about our president, he is just net used about not being the one calling all the shots in Greek football. Therefore he is building a pretty good team with low salaries from what i've been hearing from AEK fans over here. I would not even want him to leave AEK altough he is a big criminal and should be in jaill for many crimes.

 

PAO is just getting hammered on all sides, losing everything in EVERY sport in Greece, not only losing against small time European clubs who are a joke to teams like Olympiakos but getting raped by them.  Signing expensive players who are a total joke or injured. Teams like Atromitos and Asteras surpassed them in every aspect already.

 

Now that AEK is back that so called alliance will indeed fall faster then you can imagine.

PAOOOOO is sooooooooooooooo poooorrrrr ohhh we have no moneyyyyyy ohhh small babies crying all the time we are so poor no income from CL :(

 

BUT THEY SPEND 1.5 MIL SALARY ON 33 YEAR OLD INJURED ESSIEN
850k salary on some idiot Spaniard who is mentally ill. No other Spanish club crazy enough to offer this. Not ONE defender in Olympiakos makes this money.

Rich enough to be rejecting offers of 6.5 mil on Berg.

 

So poor :(

Sure we would love to have a owner that has $$$ to spend but no one is stepping up so lets forget that for now.

 

Losing to small time European clubs who are a joke to Olympiakos ok giati  Dnipro/Maccabi/Metalist are  huge clubs right? How big is your budget compare to ours again?

 

you get 20+mill a year CL money Kai me eferes to 35 yr old Cambiaso?

 

Was your owner not banned from Football but you love to talk about PAO/Paok/Aek's owners?

 

 

Dnipro made the Final of Europa after they knocked us out...Metalist had a great run that year too...  (the facts seem to be a minor detail)

They seem to forget we also beat the Champion of the best league in the world (Spain) and the finalist of the Champions League. But sure, only negative aspects are being talked about. The rest are excuses for their own failure...

 

Poor poor team :( They have the highest paid player of the League after Cambiasso but they are so poor :(
