He looks way better on the wing than Mantalos or Bakasetas. He would give us something different because he is a natural winger. I dont know why Siopis hasnt been given a chance yet. He looks better when passing the ball forward and dosent stop covering ground. Zeca looks like he has declined a bit. Kourbelis not giving enough going forward. Decent defensively but dosent offer an extra spark going forward. Galanopoulos is like Siopis. Id take one of them. They are both similar in style and stature. Back then we had Samaras and Salpinigids who were not natural wingers and were mainly strikers. They still did the job on the wing during our more successful period. We have plenty of wingers in the u21s. - Lamprou - Chatzigiovanis - Limnios - Manthatis - Also we have Donis and Fetfatzidis. Lazaros can be in the mix. So there is no excuse that we dont have wingers. There is no need to have Pelkas and Mantalos their. There not doing the job. Bakasetas is completely useless unfortunately. Upfront and CM is our biggest problem. If we can get someone to breakout in these positions we are set. Vlachodimos Torosidis Manolas Sokratis Koutris Galanopoulos Bouzoukis Limnios Fetfatzidis Chatzigiovannis Donis We need to move on from Mitroglou. Very inconsistent... Maybe Donis can take over in that spot. While we push for Lazaros or Chatzigiovanis on the right. I want to see 2 different players in the CMs. Galanopoulos is a strong candidate. Hasnt been given a proper chance yet and is young. Samaris, Kourbelis, Zeca, Taxi and Bouchalakis are not the answer moving forward. they cant create enough for us and are technically limited. SO, Galanopoulos should be tested as a 6. With another up and coming player. Bouzoukis can play that role as an 8. Fetfa at 10. He would of destroyed Estonia's backline with his trickery and vision. His shooting abilities are questionable but would give us something different to our attack. This team needs replacements from midfield to striker. This would mean the team would be going througa rebuiding phase. You want massive changes this is we should start. As fas as the EPO go i dont care. Start playing different players all the time its the only way to find out this team true potential. Instead of keeping the same old and not getting anywhere. Fortounis is talented for sure but for now he should be on the bench. Pelkas too. At least the younger generation will give you all they have rather than having complacency like most of our players.

Gotta love the autocorrects, too... Languish, not language. Though Language In Obscurity could be a good name for a band. Dutch Eagle, do you think we could get Till Lindemann to be our singer?

yeah still had great moments too. nearly beating belgium 1-0. and the belgium equalizer 1-1 till we caved. also the bosnia 1-1 in 90th. group stages are really just 3 games anyways too.

That's right we have no style of play the last 4 years. We used to be built around great defending and when we grabbed a 1-0 lead it would be nearly impossible for the opponent to score an equalizer as the team would stifle the opponent and run down the clock. It wasn't pretty but the results were wins. Even when the team would fall behind or need a goal like in the World Cup we got it from Samaras late in stoppage time to Ivory Coast and vs Costa Rica the team was fighting hard and Sokratis of all the guys puts in the equalizer for his 1st international goal to send the game to extra time. Now its seems like the guys are just out there with no plan and some are not even giving a crap about there performance they just seem interested in getting an appearance. On the home atmosphere it has been lacking of late but there was enthusiasm in the matches vs Belgium and Bosnia I think that will be evident again in the next campaign, hosting the Nations League games at OAKA didn't help with so many empty seats visible they should have kept it at the Karaiskakis stadium.

Megas Alexandros turned 72 today. Happy B’day legend!

It doesn't matter who we start as long as there is no leadership no passion then we will continue to drop further and further...We have no game plan no system whatsoever so guys that get called up and start don't fit in. We have a bunch of players that all look like they are playing independently from each other.. No one can sit here and say that Finland or Hungary or Estonia and so one have better players then us because they don't.. We lack speedy wingers and we lack a system that everyone understands and everyone buys into..When we were good pre 2014 everyone on the field had a role and we knew we would defend like hell first and then when we got an opportunity we would attack on the counter. We were also so much better on set pieces and had a few different looks to throw at teams. Even those days we would never blow anyone out and we scrambled to beat teams like Lithuania and company by 1-0 scores but at least we had an identity and a system that everyone bought into.. This current group is confused on whether they wont to play defence or offence and look lost most of the time. I have no clue what style of play our team is known for.. This is going to take a coach that preaches a certain style of play and makes everyone accountable to play the same way.. They also need vocal leaders on and off the field.. Its also pretty difficult to be passionate when you go on the road and see fans supporting their team and then you come back home to play and no one shows up to support the team.. We literally have no home field advantage..

Need one midfielder with height, Siopis and Galanopoulos are terriers but we need a dobermann in there too. Ah, the good ol'days of Tzioli$ heading in goals from corners.

Πιστεύω ότι θα στρώσει, δε μπορώ να φανταστώ ότι έφτασε ως παίχτης στην καριέρα του εκεί που έφτασε, κάνοντας τόσα λάθη... Δε μπορεί να βλέπουμε τον πραγματικό Μπάσα.... Τον περιμένω να απογειωθεί και να γίνει ο νέος Λεκμπέλο....

Για τα πλάγια μπακ συμφωνούμε. Αμυντικά και κυρίως από αριστερά βοηθάει πολύ και ο Garcia, έχεις δει πόσο συχνά πιέζει το δεξί μπακ-χαφ και κλέβει μπάλα. Και ο Gama το κάνει από την άλλη πλευρά, λιγότερο όμως. Για τον Basha είχα μεγαλύτερες προσδοκίες, έχω απογοητευτεί με τα λάθη του, πολλές λάθος πάσες ρε φίλε.

Happy thanks giving mappes. I am thankful to find similar like minded black and white idiots to talk s%$#! about football with.

I honestly thought masouras looked pretty solid in the Estonia match. What do you guys think?

Γερμανία;;; Εγώ;;; Με την καμία. Μπορεί να σου έλεγα ότι πολύς κόσμος που ασχολείται με κλασική μουσική πάει Γερμανία και γενικά Ευρώπη, αλλά εγώ Γερμανία ούτε με σφαίρες. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι όταν είχαμε γνωριστεί πριν δέκα χρόνια δεν σκεφτόμουν να φύγω έξω. Μετά ήρθε η κρίση και μας πήδηξε οπότε μπούλαρα κι εγώ. Φοιτητική βίζα έχω ρε, δεν είμαι citizen. F1 student visa λέγεται. Και δεν είμαι μόνιμα. Απλώς έκανα ένα μεταπτυχιακό δύο χρόνια και τώρα κάνω διδακτορικό άλλα τρία. Όταν τελειώσω με το καλό θα πρέπει να βρω δουλειά για να καθίσω αλλιώς παίρνω το μπούλο. Για να κάτσεις ιδέα δεν έχω. Εγώ μόνο φοιτητική βίζα έχω. Για να έρθεις και να κάτσεις έτσι ένα χρόνο δεν ξέρω αν υπάρχει κάποια επιλογή. Ίσως τα άλλα παιδιά από Αμερική εδώ ξέρουν; Αν και όλοι είναι Αμερικανοί εδώ οπότε χλωμό να έχουν ασχοληθεί με τέτοια ζητήματα.
