Zigic is the tallest man in the world.

The article didn't say what the price would be. I agree with you, he's one of our more talented players and with Djole aging it makes no sense to get rid of a left-sided player. Well Nunez left for the pre-season camp with the squad and he looked in good spirits. It doesn't look like he's going anywhere which is a good thing!

He didn't notice because he wasn't involved!

Well I don't think they are indicative of anything genuine, but I'd take 8th in the world any time!

Grammar and spelling wise - this is the worst sentence I think I have read on the internet. :tup:

Tin karfose!What an explosive header. Lets hope he gets that service at Euro.

With DUDE or with Georgios tou Ioanni Samaras?

Agreed!Also Croatia after their humiliating 0-3 at home to the Dutch have dropped below us! I know everyone in the universe rates Croatia, but I somehow secretly want them to fail miserably.

He pushed his hair back his left ear with his left hand - twice.In the 81st min he winked at a ginger-haired woman in the stands as well.

What a nice young man!

O mangas tha skisei!You just wait. Everyone has the right to be cynical at this point, but I bet you he will be a legend!

I dislike Chelsea with a passion, but if it's true then Katsou is either a man of principle and should be respected or a blameno! Who would turn down such a massive move?!?!!?anyway, Katsouranis would never go to an Italian team because his name would be the subject of ridicule. CAZZU=psola!

Short answer is yes, if Olympiakos register him in time with UEFA.Only incompetent management will prevent him not being available for Oly to beat Chelsea in February.

Someone has already edited the Wikipedia entry on Fernando Belluschi already and has him listed as an oly player! I hope this isn't premature or wishful thinking. I got to be honest I have never heard of Fernando Belluschi. From his name he is of Italian origin and I know he plays for River Plate, but is he another player touted as the "new maradona"?

Who knows exactly?Now that Castillo is at Man City on loan from Shakhtar, Samaras can stay and act as his interpreter!

I only support Greek clubs in Europe. Life long Olympiakos supporter. Soft spot for ARHS (as this was my father's club) Will always support Asteras Tripolis as this is my home town club and would even go for them over Olympiakos. I have never followed any club in any other country. I do have a rather intense dislike for Real Madrid, AC Milan, Liverpool and Chelsea however. Clubs with massive budgets who buy success and stock pile world class players. I don't mind Barcelona, but I wouldn't say I support them.

You hit the nail on the head. I like Samaras and I want him to succeed, but where's his drive and initiative? I'm sure Stuart Pearce secretly wishes he never spent all the money on him.

hahahahahaWell one swallow doesn't make a summer.....but I am sure even the most diehard fans who are kata Lemoni won't begrudge him this victory.

Fani scored a penalty in the 3 - 0 against Hannover on the weekend. This victory now sees Leverkusen rise to 3rd place alongside Amanatidis/Kyrgiakos' Eintracht. Just 1 win behind the early leaders Bayern Munich. Good work by Fani. He seems to be performing well considering the pressure of his move from VfL Bochum and the massive profile he now has amongst his rivals. :gr:

I saw a replay of the match with Preston North End. I didn't see the goal he conceded as the commentators said something about him being at fault for it, but aisde from one nervy moment where he kicked the ball out for a throw in near the corner post, his keeping and especially his kicking out was top class. His team would regularly play the ball back to him and his distribution was excellent. He is a left footer. Best Greek goalkeeper for sure. Pity Otto the gaidouri doesn't know he even exists.

Why? His wife started complaining?What do you know about him not keeping it up that the rest of us don't? :P

I agree with your view. The guy can be a world class striker. He certainly possesses all the physical attributes, but he seems easily distracted and lazy.I wonder where his career goes from here. His time at Man City is surely over now. Sven has started his revolution and it appears he has no plans for Samaras. I hope he goes to a team in Spain, France, Germany or Netherlands and maybe they can turn him into a true professional.

Kali epitixia paidia! :tup: How great is it to see these pics with happy Greeks! :gr: Full credit to everyone connected to this team. Nioplias looks overjoyed and so he should. He's done a fantastic job with these up and coming youth players.

Bravo paidia! Let's hope this isn't the FIBA World Championships all over again where we celebrated prin tin wpa and we got spanked by Spain! No Deja Vu please!

LOL - I don't think the ferret on the back of his head is making him score. But then again, maybe it is! :P
