Unfortunately only a 0:0 draw in Rethymnos. Still on top of the table, but now only one point ahead of AEK. Next game: WOMEN'S FOOTBALL LEAGUE - Round 9 23-NOVEMBER-2025, 15:00 EET Mesimvria - AK Mesimvrias PAOK Thessaloniki - Kifisia TV:

From what I understand his agent brought up a possible sale this January. Apparently there is some interest from the Middle East. I am sure PAE PAOK would consider a sale since we are bringing in another midfielder with Zafiris.

Ancelotti is the coach of Brazil currently. And Klopp is waiting for the US job to open up. Truth is we won’t pay top $ for anyone of that stature. I was hearing Thiago Motta is being rumored. Probably have to go a route of someone who is currently coaching a club team who wants to mold this young nucleus.

This team is young and still learning to play together. Bakasetas wasn’t called up originally bc of injury, he had just recovered. They need to figure out how to be disciplined. They can score at ease and just as quickly give it up. Once they settle in, they will be great. This group, being a team of four, left us little room for error. The Denmark game shattered our confidence and we went three straight games making stupid errors.

Great points, yes I can see Bakasetas sticking around through to the Euro 2028 qualifiers unless we bring in a top tier coach who will call the shots 100% with regards to player selections. I always said Jovanovich is a good manager and I like him personally but he made to many errors that cost us like starting Kourbelis in the match in Athens vs Denmark. Its not all Kourbelis fault but he had barely played at club level in the Saudi league. That match started our downturn and Greece could not bounce back. Jovanovich did not learn from his mistake and started him again at Scotland in the key match of qualifying to keep our chance at a playoff spot and we lost. Even yesterday why did he start him again and Bakesetas in a match that we could experiment and see some younger players? His subs were not helpful and his in game management was questionable especially when Greece went up 3 goals and then Scotland started to take the match to us as our midfield players were exhausted. I heard Jovanovich may leave on his own? I think for the NT to make a major tournament we need a top tier manager who has won trophies at the International or Champions League for example someone like an Ancelotti or a Klopp. Greece are now going to miss yet another tournament and we are seeing the likes of Albania, Wales, Ireland, North Ireland, Scotland, Norway and even the frigin Skops qualifying for the Euros or World Cup its completely unacceptable especially this cycle given all this talent we have at our disposal! I still cant believe how Jovanovich managed to F*** up this opportunity being placed in a group with Denmark, Scotland and Belarus and we were knocked out of contention with two matches left as well. Unacceptable!

Sorry bub, I don't trust a forum moderated by the Dutch!

Andrija with two assists against Latvia in the second half. Serbia is leading 2-1 with 22 minutes (+ ?) to go.

One could learn a lot in the "Greek players abroad" section if checked .........

Bakasetas is hanging around for another qualifying campaign, you better believe that. He wasn't initially called up for these games but called up as a replacement once Konstantelias was injured, that doesn't scream to me well planned out goodbye testimonial. I maintain Bakasetas has a role to play(off the bench), and to a lesser extent Kourbelis and even lesser extent Masouras. The team's defensive issues can't possibly be laid to blame at Bakasetas' feet. We created a bucket load of chances, as you mention in an attacking sense we have really turned the corner. Defensively we have massive issues. Individual errors which need to be rectified by the players themselves but also our structure and system doesn't seem to provide adequate protection. Jovanovic needs to sort it out and ASAP. You can't be going 3-0 up with 30 minutes to play and the match turns into a rodeo. We must get better at seeing out matches and playing out time to get the result. Otherwise no matter how beautiful we play or how many goals we score, qualifying for a major tournament will remain a pipe dream.

I heard some murmurs earlier in the season (around July/August) that he had some issue with Lucescu or vice versa. All I know is he wasn't a nailed on starter from the start of the season and as a result his form seems to have dipped noticeably.

Guess we know who's getting promoted, huh? -edit- btw I just did a double take when I saw the score sheet - Apostolos Vellios plays for Niki Volos???

I don't understand what's happening there - was there a falling out? I thought he got injured, but I have no idea from what?

What’s happened with our defence. If it wasn’t for Vlachodimos no way we win. We could have easily conceded 4 goals and lost this one. We have now conceded 11 in last 4. We haven’t kept a clean sheet in qualifiers. That should be a top objective in the last game. Then we look forward to Nations League A, and up against the likes of Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, England, Italy, Germany, Croatia, Denmark, Belgium, Czech, Turkey. Hope we sort our defensive woes by then.

Greece got the win. Electric attacking play that we have not ever seen before from the Ethniki. Karetsas will be one of the worlds great footballers for years to come. Our defending is a total disgrace I cant recall us giving up these many goals in a campaign. Greece we F***ed ourselves with stupid personal and tactical decisions over this campaign. First place could have been ours. Denmark was a dream draw from pot 1 as I have said here many times and we saw that today as they tied Belarus at home. We pissed away those two matches with the Danes along with the match at Scotland where Greece should have got a draw if not for our defensive lapses. Totally sucks that we failed to make a third World Cup in a row.

I genuinely believe this was a “goodbye testimonial” to Bakasetas, Kourbelis, Masouras. Hence why Jovanovic started the 2 and brought in the other. It is clear we will be a top team attacking wise during the Euro Qualifiers, but as everyone is mentioning we struggle defensively. Vlahodimos saved 3 point blank chances. The fact the u21 team looks like one of the best in Europe right now is good so I assume we have a very good group coming up

Denmark 2 Belarus 2 FT

It's weird how our strongest trait (defense) is now our worst.

And to make matters worse, we are gonna be on 9 points to end the campaign and 2nd place will be on 10. If we had gotten a result vs Denmark or the first Scotland game we woulda been in playoff

Belarus are drawing Denmark, wtf?

That feels like a loss, we are nowhere near the standard required to play at major championships, that capitulation was inexcusable.

A win, but that performance stunk

The defense is so so bad lol.

3-2 FT. Need to figure out the defensive line for Euro Qualification
