Torosidis played at left back for the Ethniki since he debuted in 2007, long before he ever moved to Roma. He was 22 so I'm not sure your experience argument holds up. Toro was only moved to his natural right back once Rehhagel left and Santos took over post 2010 World Cup. We don't know if Tsimikas would fail or not at right back, there are challenges with playing on your opposite side as you have correctly pointed out. If JVS is going to insist on Mavrias as the no.2 right back and not consider other options, 10/10 times I would rather see Tsimikas playing on his weak side.

Looks like things are getting quite serious for JVS. Does Zagorakis have other ideas? https://m.sport24.gr/football/ethniki-elladas-sto-trapezi-toy-zagoraki-o-fan-sip.9191648.html

I haven’t watched a game in yonks so I can’t really say what the problem is. Stats for a game can be misleading but stats for a season don’t lie. Our defending (note I didn’t say defence) is obviously our main problem. We have the second best attack in the league and I know we still struggle to score easily and our attacks can be one dimensional but right now that isn’t our main problem. As for why we concede so many and so easily that’s for the team to work out. Is there a lack of pressing ? Are the lines too spaced out ? Is it set pieces ? F*** mate, it shouldn’t be that hard to work it out. But apparently they can’t work it out. We copped 3 today even with 3 in the middle from a PAO team that is (let’s be honest) a pretty bad team. They don’t even try to play ball. What does that say about us ? Getting sucked in week after week against inferior opposition who sit back and then counter. Not sure if the problem is the squad or the manager. The pressure on Garcia will be intense.

Yasou, re Bafra!

I am in the same boat

I cant disagree on u that Id have Tsimikas or Kyriakopoulos or Lykogiannis as RB instead of even Bakakis. We have serie A left backs. One should be able to perform better than Mavrias and even Bakakis ifu ask me.

Looks good 👍

Only if Ange is my assistant.
