Really wondering who the extra person is going to be now that Holebas is off. After 2 goals against Larissa , if he continues his good apperanaces maybe we see Plattelas. A winger for a winger. Otherwise hoping Siopis.

WOW...... Well.... We've just announced Jose Morais as our new manager For whoever doesn't know him, he was Mourinho's assistant at Inter, Real Madrid, and Chelsea.... He has very limited head coaching experience, coached last year in Turkey for a team that was just promoted and lead them to a mid-table finish. The ONLY positive about this move is that they replaced Ketsbaia very quickly, and they must've had this move lined up during the international break, so maybe he knows a little bit about our players already... Other than that it looks like a bad move...

Koutroubis can't be given time when we have Sokratis, Manolas, Kyriakos and Oikonomou.

Seriously, it's not worth this thread to degenerate in to an argument, so I won't be addressing Chris from Kiato. Red Sheriff, your post is essentially exactly how I feel so from me, a big Bravo for posting it.

for me Greece was number 1 always..but I was also a very passionate socceroo fan until around 2000.. I was devastated when Iran beat us in 1997..I was there..however by 2001 when Uruguay played at the MCG..I was secretly supporting an aussie defeat..have been ever since... I think when I hit around 30..I realised how arrogant/ignorant the masses were here..and the whole jingoism really turned me off them.. the 'ugly australian' sledging on the field....really got me angry.. For me the straw that broke the camels back was post 2000, when the Aussie media was gunning for Athens to lose the Olympics....the total misinformation and constant lies at the time was very offensive and down right racist... After a successful Athens 2004, and no apology from the aussie media..I felt 'stuff you'......combine this with the euphoria of euro 2004..amd the exclusion of south Melbourne fc from A League based on ethnic grounds.. I turned my back totally on aussie sport.. and the sporting culture.. It was difficult to care about AFL..Socceroos etc ..after winning Euro 2004...it was 'like winning sporting powerball'..

Ah yes Recoba! He was a great player.

I know there have been a few mixed reviews upon K Pap`s performance vs Estonia, but keep in mind that there were a lot of absentees, especially after the injuries and he was playing out of position. The NT is just on another level when he is on the field. He is fierce, confident and hungry, and that rubs off. I am so happy to see him healtly and playing. Skibbe knows him well and will be relying on him a lot. If fit, he will be one of the most important players of the generation for the NT.
