If that's how it plays out then the game against Sweden will be our do or die game as we need to beat them no matter what if we want to give ourselves a chance going into October and November. Its going to be extremely difficult.

Game over, 2-1 Sweden. Doesn't change anything for us. We still need to win our games. Anything other than a win on Sunday pretty much ends our chances.

Just watched it. We can’t catch a frigin break Spain lose after going up 1 nil. Isak and Kulesveski were dangerous that’s going to be a tough tandem to face. JVS get on the phone and beg Manolas and Siovas to come back!!

So they need to jump Sweden, and Spain will have more to play for now they aren't even assured 1st anymore. Even then will need to go into playoff for 2nd spot in which they won't be seeded. It's looking grim. Just beat Kosovo and go from there all they can do at this point..

For sure Dean. He should have never seen the field vs Georgia were he couldn’t create anything. How will Bakasetas break down the Swedes who know how to defend. Anyways if JVS gets it wrong here especially vs Kosovo then he has no more outs left.

Now that loss to Georgia looks even worse and they were absolutely terrible today at home to Kosovo. JVS better get 2 wins or he’s done!

A draw or loss against Kosovo should mean JVS gets the sack. Can’t lose against them. Have to win. Sweden will be hard, we might be defending all game like we did against Spain. I just hope we win our next 2 games. That all I could wish for. His trust and loyalty of Bakasetas will make him get the sack in my opinion. Bakasetas shouldn’t and can’t lead us into a major tournament. If we eliminate him we’ll look like a good team and can possibly make something happen and also qualify.

With our current setup we are not beating Sweden or Spain so I agree with @Ellada2004JVS needs to do something regarding Manolas and Siovas or we will get shredded. We are not in the same class as both those teams so leaving our our better players is just stupid at this point.

JVS better have the right starting lineup and tactics vs Kosovo 3 points is a must. We cant blame him for these key injuries that we seem to always pick up but dam it when you have a world class CB like Manolas not on the team that is a HUGE problem add to that Siovas is off the team for a silly argument makes things even worse.

Just watched a replay of the game. Some good things and some bad things. The wingers of the other teams seem to give our defenders a lot of problems on a regular basis and we need to address that ASAP. Also i will give the team a pass as we are missing some players and some of the guys playing don't have full playing time with there club teams. In saying that if we don't get 3 points against Kosovo its a complete failure and JVS job may be on the line as it will once again be ANOTHER failed tournament. Mavropanos was terrible in my opinion and It seems like JVS is going to live and die with Bakasetas as his main go to guy. Manolas and Siovas would make this team so much better and stop us from those mental breakdowns that occur for us regularly but unfortunately JVS has ruined that from happening.

He was shockingly bad today.. Our worst player

I wouldn’t worry at all what happens in the other matches. It’s early still. Every team controls their own fate. Ifgreece wins all their matches they’ll win the group. That’s all they have to worry about. Taking care of their own business
