    The ones I highlighted in bold are players who we're on the EURO 2004 winning squad. Greece did indeed got a bit younger, it's only a matter of when will Otto call up for more youth or to play them more.

  4. So far so good for our young men, we performed well or average in the tournament with the exception of the refs "butchering" us with some stupid calls such as the penalty vs. Italy and the sent off of Sotiris Ninis. I am very confident that our players will step it up and give there very best in there final match with England. Let's beat them gamoto. ;)

  6. 20 points against the Houston Rockets? :LOL: :D

    Not if McGrady, Yao, and Francis are all playing together on the floor.

    I was thinking what's so special about Houston? Do they have so many Greeks there?

  7. Yes but this was an exceptional win inspired by his changes. I'm not saying he's the answer, but I've consistenly said that Ivic & Kokkalis are the poison of this team, he's just a manager trying to do the best with what he's got. And I certainly disagree with Evalagoal, this squad is weaker than last years imo and Lemonis is trying to find the right balance with what he has. Having said that, the last time we had a truly exceptional result in the CL (without Bajevic) was when Lemonis was in charge and we beat Leverkusen 6-2, look what went on to happen after that! So let's not get carried away with the success but Lemonis has to have at least earned respect & a chance now.

    Lemonis knew that if his team didn't deliver the goods against Werder Bremen, he would have already lost his job.
