I am not sold on Tzavellas as a CD

 

I wasn't, then I wasn't, then I wasn't, then I was.  I think for the GSL he's fine.  May get caught out in higher level EL games though.  If by some miracle we roll a 20 on a 20 sided die and we qualify for CL, he probably is not at that level.  I think the fact that he's our best CB (in my opinion) speaks volumes of the quality of our defense.

Tomorrow Ivic decides who is going to the training camp in Holland and who stays behind. We'll get some good indications on who will need to start looking for new team to get playing time.

Don't think there will be any real surprises with who goes to Holland, I expect all senior players to go and the "usual suspects" from the younger brigade. The ones that will be dropped will be some of the kids and he might take one or 2 with the rest of the team just so they can experience a proper pre-season

So after having seen these two matches, I think some of our stronger players are becoming more obvious, and a lineup is shaking itself out.

 

 

                  --Glykos--

--Matos--Crespo--Tzavellas--Leovac--

    --Cimirot--Shakhov--Charisis--

    --Rodrigues--Klaus--Pereyra--

 

 

Pelkas has been more impressive than Mistakidis so far, and Koulouris has also looked good (although Pelkas is more likely to unseat one of the wingers than Koulouris is to unseat Klaus). I'm still not sure who the best CB pairing will be, but Leovac is 100% going to be the starter, and Matos is overwhelmingly likely to walk in over Kitsiou.

 

For once, it feels like we have actual depth. Apart from striker, we've got options at least two deep for each position. This feels weird.

Koulouris is ready to stay.

Cmirok is expected to have a big season, harissis has a lot of work to do to start and ee have good wingers in rodrigues, dlajma, jairo and mystakidis.

If we sign a striker and a centre back we have a good squad with our best coach since santos and i think we can start dreaming again

We havent had a logical coach since santos.

I just hope the backroom stay united and the results will come.

Ivic has got it.

 

We haven't had a stable coach during Savvidis "reign".  Huub, Donis and Anastasiadis all lost the dressing room by the Xmas break or shortly thereafter.  It will be refreshing to have a manager that can firstly stay a whole season, and possible complete a second season.

Counting Mak and Kace we have a roster of 33 players in the training camp right now. Obviously this will be cut down to 27-28 players, which means 5 to 6 players will be cut right before the first CL qualifying game. I believe we are done making transfers right now. At least until the CL qualifying games are completed.

 

What players will be cut?

I think Konstantinidis' days are numbered. I also can't see that most of the kids from the U20s are going to last either, we'll probably see all of them get loaned out.

 

I've read that Chatziisaias hasn't looked so hot at training, which might bode poorly for him. I think releasing him would be a mistake, though.

You're probably right.

 

In  my opinion these will be the players that will be cut from the top squad:

 

Melissas   (loan or relesed)

Siabanis  (U20)

Konstantinidis  (loan)

Chatziisaias  (loan if we sign a top notch CB)

Jairo (loan if Mak stays)

Dimitriadis (U20)

Korovesis (loan or release)

Stelios Pozoglou will be loaned to Cypriotic club Karmiotissa (Pano) Polemidion.

Don't know that club but they play at the highest level after their promotion last year.

Hi boys, another lifelong sufferer joining the ranks. Anyway looks like the first time in a long time we have a settled squad before the start of the season. The good thing is we have genuine replacements for each position on the pitch. I expect to see the following lineup (4-2-3-1) after a couple of weeks of preparation...

                   Brkic
Matos:Crespo:Varela:Leovac
            Canas:Shakov
Djalma:Biesewar:Rodrigues
                 Klaus

With direct replacements...

                   Glykos
Kitsiou:Malezas:Hatzisaias:Tzavellas
             Cimirot:Kace
         Jairo:Pelkas:Facundo
                 Koulouris

 

Hopefully this means we don't see the likes of Tzioli too often this season.

Welcome kozi! Great to have you. I think your second post should be a series of compliments about me.

 

I'd agree with your post, but I think Mistakidis is far better than Jairo (and I'm currently having a panic attack about our cutting him in the coming days).
