Listen.... I am the reigning record holder of most Red cards given in the Hellenic U14 league, since 1990. I'll just give them the crazy eyes, and get a red. I'll fit right in.

Unless the ball is made of bougatsa, you ain't gettin' anywhere near it.

I think Doxa also said this. In Arnesen's defence the highlights of the Chelsea transfers during 2005-2010 Asier Del Horno Shaun Wright Phillips Michael Essien Michael Ballack John Obi Mikel Ashley Cole Florent Malouda Nico Anelka Branislav Ivanovic Jose Bosingwa Deco Daniel Sturridge Nemanja Matic There are just as many flops in the list but you can't say that he is incapable of picking any decent players. However I do think his strike rate this year was off

Yes, he is not to be involved with Greek soccer. :lol: And one day before the meeting the Undersecretary of Sport is now calling for the owners of the Big 4 to sit down together and work things out among themselves. Never mind that there are 12 other teams that take part in the competition.

Let me check my voicemail...I have a call from Greece. Maybe they want me to play CB.

Isn't he banned anyway? ;)

My god he is so punchable

You can call Tudor a mistake but it's all easy in hindsight. Arnesen had to find a manager in a short amount of time because we had EL qualifiers coming up and the team was on its knees in terms of confidence. If we want results, we shouldn't be playing kids. Pelkas, Mystakidis, Antonis, Kitsiou, Charisis even Chatziisaias are all too inexperienced. They will make mistakes and that's just the way it is. If we can't cope with the learning curve, then give them all the boot.

Lazaros has great pace, dribbling, freak kicks, and good penalty kicker. he should've really stepped it up for us in the Euro 2016 campaign perhaps he can make it up for the world cup campaign

Exactly. These guys you mention are the obvious ones. Especially Fornaroli. He was brought as a "gun" from Sampdoria where he did nothing because Jesualdo Ferreira the PAO coach at the time rated him for some reason. Anyway, a year later, everyone at PAO realised that the guy wasn't PAO nor Super League quality and released him and thus saving about 550k euro a year. He then went back to Uruguay where he didn't exactly set that league on fire and eventually makes it to the A-League where he is the first play to reach 20 goals in a season and also he has the record of scoring against every team in a single season. The league speaks for itself. The quality of football is about Greek Football League standard at it's best. I watched AEK play against Sydney FC and it was a stroll for them. Burns looked a step above the Sydney FC players because his team mates made him look good. At the time Sydney FC were the benchmark in the league too.

At least we Greeks treat them like humans unlike the blockheads skops

Not sure what your expectation were. We got a bunch of young and unknown players. The only player I'm disappointed with is Leovac who at 27 years of age and at 1.3M Euros you expect him to be a fairly complete player who would at the very least lock down the LB position. Add to that a manager who was fairly inexperienced as well. If you want more, we need to spend more, a whole lot more.

Well done to the boys, but this was never in doubt. A final should not be so lob-sided. A PAO-OLY final would be a far better advert for Greek basketball. The only problem is the fans would likely start a riot again if they were both allowed in the same stadium. Hopefully this isn't Diamantidis' last trophy.

Got my jersey yesterday. # 705. My son got # 707. I really like it. The booklet that came with it is nice too. As for the size, if you plan on wearing it I would recommend you get 2 sizes bigger than you usually get. I got an XL, but it is a tight fit. I wasn't planning on wearing it anyway as I will be framing it.

Today I read the following at the bottom of a thread: 3 user(s) are reading this topic0 members, 1 guests, 1 anonymous users and now I am confused. Has Phantis declared war on Arithmetic or on the English language as well?

ukworm IS back! :) Morning/Afternoon/Evening All!

Started and scored a nice volley to make it 3-0 against his old side Hellas Verona. He was subbed off after 58 minuets http://www.contra.gr/Soccer/Italy/SerieA/sampdoria/gkolara-xristodoylopoyloy-kontra-sthn-prwhn-omada-toy.3941229.html
