OK I didn't realise that the playoffs were during that time.
You still have to beat Atromitos though.
-
Is AEK playing in Europe around then?
Not sure it matter when it's played as long as it's played. I don't care who wins either. Maybe Atromitos can win.

Thanks Dutch Eagle. I'm interested in how it plays out given the meddling of SYRIZA post the PAOK riot.
Greece avoids expulsion from FIFA which is definitely a good thing regardless of what certain club owners wanted (Savvidis & Melisanidis especially).

When you say "hot smelly garbage" you're praising him, nai?

Aek66, I agree with you which is why I singled out Bakasetas' physique. The difference a lot of the time is strength, speed and fitness. In Greece they place less emphasis on it which is to the detriment of the sport.
Forget this theory that technical players are superior to physically stronger players.
-
Yes he's from Korintho.
Bakasetas is an Asteras junior. Shame he never got settled at Asteras. He went out on loan to a few clubs but he's had his best season ever.
-
If anyone is interested, he scored the first against 1860 Munich in a 3-1 win.
I hope Bakasetas follows his u19 teammate and heads abroad. Preferably not to a 2nd division team.

Bakasetas with another 2 goals yesterday against PAOK should probably be on the plane to Australia. He's got a cracking left foot and I think I recall reading something about him having the highest number of assists this season.
He looks like he has been physically working out too. He's built like a beast.

Of course he looked good. What's the standard of NASL? If it's Greek Football League standard I'd be surprised.

The bad news is we still suck and defend set pieces like amateurs. The good news is we are scoring from free play and appear to play a semblance of decent football.
Skibbe needs to concentrate on fixing these cheap goals from corners and free kicks though. Otto would be turning in his grave knowing we copped all 4 goals from either a corner or a free kick conceded outside the box in these last 2 friendlies.
This stuff is rudimentary. We still give up these goals with Sokratis and Manolas too so they need to work on these basics.

Hey Ellas75, if you end up meeting him get in his ear and tell him to start taking things seriously.

SHERIFF is spot on.
-
Amo I think you're being a bit harsh on the first half. I didn't watch the match either but from all the reports I read the 1st half was very good aside from that dumb goal we gave up.
Oikonomou is highly regarded in Italy but his display has been rightly criticised. We were a total mess in the 2nf half and thankfully it was only 3 goals and not more.
-
Oh and Cahill is an old fart, cant score in a brothel. Mitro will put it all over him. Not long now.
You forgot that to mention that the A-League is better than the Dutch Eredivisie because some ex-Dutch talent said so.
-
Australia is not clutching at straws Ange is actually giving players many haven't heard of a chance as no one else ever did and its paying off.
You just proved my point about him being unknown.
-
Has sat on the bench? If that's your definition of an international player then Australia is clutching at straws by rewarding players who haven't made a mark at their club.
He's played more matches for Australia than for Lazio.
I'm not saying he's not a talent as I want Greeks to prosper but if Greece was capping kids without first team football we'd rightly be critical.
-
Fair enough. Losing when you're not trying is still losing, so no excuses.
-
Definitely unknown. When my middle-age mate who followed Australia during the Asian Cup around the country asks me who this Ikonomidis kid is then yes I think unknown is probably fair enough.
One might say this guy is ignorant which is also a fair call but how many so-called fans know who he is? How many matches has he played for the 1st Lazio team?
-
Yeah Sainsbury and some unknown Greek kid playing for the junior teams at Lazio is going to embarrass Greece. Okkkkkkkay
-
Any fellow Aussies quite worried about these games now? I got to say I am, especially if our better players do not come down under.
Nope. 2 0-0 on the cards.
-
Good. Agree with me tote
-
I like you Tzatziki. Do you like me?
-
Nikopolidis has never shown any football nous. What are his qualifications exactly? Does any one know?
He was a crap goalkeeper.

True, but without that and other failures we would never have won a Euro. Something that many other nations can only dream about.
