  1. APOEL announced the signing of Facundo Bertoglio who was at Asteras on loan last season. The guy is a gun. My favourite player from last season.

    I don't think he'll play against FC Copenhagen buy if they play UCL he'll lift the team. He's a much better player than De Vicente.

  2. The truth is that AEK has been very stingy given Tiger's financial clout.

    Nothing wrong with good recruitment of suitable free agents but AEK should have spent to have a better s%$#! at the Europa thus season.

  3. Not really the forum to debate what classification or 'world' the country of Greece is (First World obviously), but poor is relative and developing doesn't apply to countries that comprise the OECD of which Belgium and Greece are members.

    Red Sheriff has used facts and non-bias to prove a point that many are either denying based on feelings and perceptions and definitely not reality. The leagues of Greece and Belgium are not that far apart from a technical level. End of story.

  4. Nick, those are symptoms and signs that Greek football is a bordello but doesn't indicate Belgium is better in quality etc.

    Although I think Belgium is overall better organised and more consistent over their top league, the quality is very similar.

    By that I mean the top clubs in Greece can compete against their clubs and the players can move across both leagues without any difficulty.

    In saying that though, I would love the goal for Greece's SuperLeague to be more like the Jupiler league in terms of organisation, ideals and goals. This comes from the governing body though and at present with the clowns in charge at EPO and the personal vendettas between these oligarch club owners and the media there will never be progress.

  5. Giannotas is quality how Oly didn't keep him was a real dumb decision.

    Not good enough for Olympiacos but he just won an Olympic silver medal in the 10 kms swim in a photo finish.

    -Edit-

    Scrap that. It's Gianniotis not Gianniotas!

  6. I personally think Ranieri is too good for Leicester. I also expect Leicester will lose many more matches this season too. Nothing against Ranieri but he's at a crap club.

    The type of club that Torosidis and Holebas would be perfect for.

    As for Ranieri I wanted him as Greece manager. I prefer him to post-2004 Otto and Santos. He led Leicester to the EPL title so will go down as a club legend.

  7. I think Leicester will get relegated personally. They were atrocious yesterday. It was like they had never played before as a team. I hope they finish dead last in their UCL group too.

    Ranieri will never again achieve what he did last season. I have nothing against him but this is where if he's a top coach/manager he shows it but I think with the squad he has he'll struggle to keep them in the Premiership.

    He will always be an English EPL winner though so not diminishing what he did last season.

    I do rate Mahrez and Musa though, but the rest are Championship level hacks.

  8. I don't know who to side with and what to believe. If you read sdna.gr they are so anti-EPO (Specifically Girtzikis), Olympiakos and Marinakis that it's hard to take them seriously.

    Now PAOK, AEK and PAO have supported Kontonis' stance. Whether Girtzikis and EPO are right or not their Charter as an independent organisation means they can just bide their time as Reaper says.
