Damn Rey, very impressive!!

Great post and analysis, REY! Some personal remarks: Our weakest line is definitely the DM. My favourite players are Souza, Tzanakakis and Platellas. I like also Dounis, Pavlidis and Diamantopoulos. Passas is worst than Kapnidis, Milunovic is an unpleasantg surprise, IMO we miss a better subtitution for Diamantopoulos upfront. What's going on with Anakoglou, when will he be back?

Man up. This is how we won the war.

OK, let me analyze our players that I created some opinion of until now, for the beginning of the season. I tried to dig as deep as I could in order to not miss anyone and say the core in one sentence. If I miss someone, that is either because he hasn't played a lot so far or I missed a player by no intention. Bolded players are mostly starters and anyone, who hasn't followed Aris much this season, after reading, can figure out who plays where and how he has played so far. Kantimiris - GK, Good so far. No noted mistakes and good saves he has had from time to time. Only 3 concedes. Anagnostopoulos - GK, OK-ish, but not tested enough so far. No serious business against PAS for example. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Tzanakakis - RWB, Very good so far. Worth starting, overlaping when he needs. Defensively not too weak. Hugo Souza - CD, very brave, good anticipating, leadership skills, tacles mostly on time, not slow. Like him. Delizissis - CD (captain), good overall. And OK-ish partnership with Souza although I didn't like some defending in our quick concedes against Ergo and Panaxaiki Marangos - CD, alternative CD, error prone, lack of confidence, but has some positives that could be seen more Bourbos - LWB/RWB - Starter and alternative, depends. Slow, but very professional and tries. I should say nothing against the lad Valerianos - LWB, good against Panaxaiki, but has some liabilities Tzoumanis - LWB, good against Giannina, still a starter material. Even better and sharper than both Bourbos and Valerianos --------------------------------------------------------------------- Moumin - DCM, slow at passing sometimes, so as at moving and thinking, but has had some good balls and I think doesn't make errors at passing a lot which is good if nothing else Intzoglou - DCM, again not the quickest CM, although tackles more and harder than Moumin, but with less vision Nikić - DCM, not consistent and fittest player, although he tries hard, tackles and can pass. Slow too Pavlidis - CM/AM, again not consistent, but can pass and even attends the attacking operations Platellas - RW, probably the best asset this season. Skillful, can pass, also crosses and shoots. Good to watch Lottas - RW/AM, a blondie guy...loses balls, makes mistakes, was subbed out at half time against Giannena Milunović - AM/CF, strange player, sometimes I think he can do anything in Football league, then again loses himself and disappears in a game. Stevanović - CM, similar to his compatriot Milunović, although with limited football knowledge Passas - AM/CF, not bad, moves a lot up front, versatile, changes positions, loves to make combinations, one-twos, through balls, but something is missing, and that is probably why he plays in second division Kassos - AM/CF, same as above more less, but even more inconsistent and has that Milunović syndrome Dounis - LW, pacey, can even shoot, can be tough. also lacks consistency Bargkan - Similar as above. Set piece taker when he is in mostly -------------------------------------------------------------- Diamantopoulos - ST, top scorer, not a bad finisher and smart mover Kapnidis - ST, develops slowly in 3 year period now, not the perfect finisher, clumsy with the ball sometimes
