I have just renewed ? 22,000 is surely a given after the season we have had? It would be great to have near sell outs every game this season and have higher attendances than Olympiakos.

The coach needs to go ASAP and if with a new coach the results and drama continue then time to clean house get rid of everyone and start playing younger guys.. At the end of the day I would rather lose and get embarrassed with younger guys that may have some potential then watching these guys lose every time they play.. EPO just confirmed they will play at Oaka for the entire qualifier.. wow how embarrassing we don’t even have a home field.. lol Oaka is like we are playing on the road..

The good old Golden Spike track meet in Ostrava. Used to attend this meet every year as a youngster when I was growing up in Ostrava. I have seen some very famous world athletes competing at this meet.

You made a couple good points, but I want to touch on a couple of the other things. Not all players can play anywhere on the the pitch, that's just a straight ignorant statement from him, as is putting the game in God's hands... Putting salpi isn't soem incredible tactic, he already plays the right side, so he just moved him back and asked him to be a bit more d minded, salpi is a vet so it wasn't a mind blowing concept for him. Looking at all his call ups and asking siovas of all players to play rb is straight f'd. Playing a lb at rb would have made more sense at that point. Rb didn't even end up being our issue in that game, we had no connection between the mids and our forwards who were left out to dry, by who? Our coach! The Italian were coming at us in waves, and we couldn't sustain possession. So seeing all that, he subs on a rb and another dm lol yup, that oughta solve the ball possession problem. So I guess we needed to defend our 3 goal lead at that point? Guess there wasn't a need to switch the tactics at all right? or bring out a couple players to assist the attack? God had us covered, the Italians were more God worthy that day as well. Nothing to do with continuously sticking too many dm's on the field. I don't care about the musical goalies, cause it really didn't matter who was in net with the chances we were giving up. No hes not at fault for the players individually, but yes he's very much at fault for who he fields and weather or not they're able to assist in attack or how they're able to distribute the ball. The points you did make made sense, but for some reason you fail to mention anything about his tactics or subs/decisions on player personnel, which are all in his hands. Losing 2-0 to Armenia at ht, it doesn't make sense to keep the dms in tact, especially if your job is on the line, but like clock work, he took off pelkas. Then subs a dm for a dm down 3-1 lol guess he thought Greece was up 3-1? Its 2019, you can't play 2 tall oafs at cdm who can't distribute and hope to get results. And you can't try to stack a wall against itlay, they will come in waves and eventually bag one, doesn't matter how good your d is, you cant sustain that for 90. You put 3 tall oafs at dm in the Italy, is anyone surprised they broke us down, or that we couldn't get the ball up to the forwards...or excuse me, just fortou cause Mas and Kol were running back and forth defending so they weren't even up there with him. Like honestly if you're gonna make an argument for him, don't be selective and cherry pick only certain thing and leave out everything else, cause then it just falls short.

Below is the list of teams Aris will face: http://www.metrosport.gr/article/pithani-antipali-tou-ari-sto-europa-league I want to avoid Lemesos & Kraiova.

He better not get a call up period. Absolute garbage player who adds literally nothing to this team, no offense, no defense.... Just a dud.

When was the last time the league appeared to be this organized and actually had a starting date this early? https://www.sdna.gr/podosfairo/superleague/article/608963/kalentari-tis-neas-soyper-ligk-pics

I personally like Ange and I thought things were going to take a positive turn after that great second half at Bosnia. I can't understand what he was thinking in the Italy match by playing Fortounis up at striker with no one to support him just rendered him useless and was no threat to the Italians. Starting Barkas (although he was good) made no sense as he's not the first choice Gk and then instead of starting him vs Armenia he puts in vlachodimos and the goalie carousel continues. When I heard the players say they did not watch any game film on Armenia but watched the CL final I couldn't believe it. Anyways the EPO should have done a more thorough coaching search after they fired Skibbe to bring in a more suitable coach.

We will make it to the euros. I believe we can do it. We have a skilled enough team. We just need to work on the mentality and the coaching staff. Our players are skilled and experienced. These results we are getting lately are shockers to the world. NO ONE thinks greece is this bad. Something needs to be done about the support of the national team as well. There’s no such thing as home field advantage if you’re playing in an empty stadium. There should be better marketing towards filling the stadium. Greek fans are very loyal to their SL teams no matter how bad they perform. Why can’t it be this way for the national team. A friend told me today that the tickets aren’t even too expensive, something like 10 euros

J1078 agree with you, we are not like the Spain's Italys or even Croatians of the world's but let's not forget more than a decade we were consistently ranked near the top 10 and this wasn't decades ago like say Hungary with there great teams of the 1950s. Within a short few years we have fallen into the 50s of the world rankings and have only managed to win 11 games? Our team still has enough talent that we should be more successful. So there is something very bizarre going on at this time. Skibbe for all his short comings managed to take this almost same squad to a world cup playoff in a tougher group and now they lose to Armenia at home, Italy I can understand but losing to Armenia it's baffling.

If we can’t be beating teams worse than us on paper then you know there is a deep deep problem. I can’t wrap by head around how Samaris plays so bad for the national team. He needs to sit out for a few games. Our defence is not the same defence that won a Euro and made major tournaments. We have no striker. Mitroglou is made of glass just like most of our players. If we could get a new EPO with a proper coach and have 95% of our players available then we can be in the top 20. Retsos and Donis are our young stars coming up playing in a good league. Sokratis and Manolas are our best and most experienced defenders. Fortounis is in the form of his life. Siovas and Kourbelis are good back ups. There is something to be optimistic about. We have Galanopoulos and Koutris coming up the ranks. Papadopoulos when healthy can be vital for us. Mavropanos gives us extra hope for our future. It’s very frustrating at the moment and my patience is becoming very thin with some of our players. Samaris has to be dropped for me. Siovas and Kourbelis should sit the bench. Pelkas also. Kolovos is better off the bench. Donis must start for us whenever available. We have to call up some youngsters. Lamprou, Limnios, Bouzoukis, Galanopoulos etc. Masouras is ok he needs to improve but there is something there. Someone said it before whoever our coach is should be calling up players based on their skill set and what they bring to the game. Also form too. Not what agent they have eg. (Bakasetas)
