^I hope you're right but I just see Bosnia scoring a lot more goals then us and knowing goal differential plays a big role In the W/C qualifiers that concerns me.

I agree that we've seen so much of Mitro and we know what he is capable of, but to be honest he has been a big disappointment for us since the Romania series that got us to the World Cup. He is very slow and he literally needs to be given the ball in an ideal situation where he has some time and space to be productive because I don't think he will create anything himself. In Saying that we know he's a big part of this team going forward just do to our lack of depth. We need to see what other guys are capable of doing and I would like to see velios get a full game. I mentioned before is Karnezis really our best option in net? And does Ninis or Fetfa have any palace on this team or have they lost there opportunity? Also I still believe in Kone and I'd like to see a little bit of Lazaros.

I'd like to see more of Lazaros, I thought he had potential and I haven't seen him on the NT for a long time. Anyone know what happened to him and why he hasn't been given another shot since the W/C? I think he only played 1 or 2 EQ games as well.

As professional athletes that's absolutely bullshit, these guys don't obviously take there training and careers or at the very least the national team seriously. They have another game in a few days. They have every right to enjoy there life in the off season but as a professional athlete they're required to eat sleep and train and be on a comited program and schedule. These F***ERS will never get it.

It's nice we finally got a win and scored 2 goals. My main concern is still our defense, we keep talking about having world class defenders and I do agree we have some very talented defenders but we keep letting very weak teams score on us and this is very concerning. Can you imagine what good teams will do against us? Since we all know we have a major problem scoring goals we need to focus on building a solid defensive system and if we do that the chances offensively will come. On another note is Karnezis our best option in goal? I've never had confidence in him. Is there not anyone else available that looks good? Samaris to me looked like he struggled and some horrible giveaways. I'd like to see Kone back and I'd like to give Lazaros a look as well. Bottom line great to get the win under Skibbe but Defense is still very concerning to me.

.

How much time left?

Damn lost the stream

Wtf is Samaris doing

The goal the Montenegro scored just look how deep in his net Karnezis is he's on his goal line, if he challenges that's probably not a goal. Not saying it's all his fault.

Agree I was just saying how quick it happened.

Guys does our defense no scare you guys?? Look at the break downs we look like s%$#! defensively.

Where did that come from???

^Agree he looks lost on those plays.

Wow, we concede every game

What a goal

He guys I missed the first half.. How do we look? Do we look much improved?

The Greece team of two years ago would barely beat Montenegro 1-0, but we wouldn't lose or concede a goal. I want to play Montenegros best line up and don't want to play an injured opponent. Now that the horrific EQ is done and behind us we will now see if that was just one of those things that we couldn't explain but if we still play garbage football and don't beat these teams and dominate the play against teams like Montenegro then it clearly shows our problems are not behind us. Iceland should be a good test. There is no excuse not to win this game with what ever line up we start.

^ Thanks

Anyone know what time this game starts?

You have 2 games IMO to flirt with a few different combinations this game and the Iceland game. You better have your line chosen prior to the Australia matches or any other upcoming matches. We need to start building chemistry along with a a style of play that we want to play. If we are still unsure of certain players and there roles come the summer time kiss the W/C good bye.

^really like that line up.

Nice goals.... But Im still not sure about him as a starter on the NT yet.

^ I don't think we are there yet based on one game that tied, especially since a few days prior we lost 1-0 to a minnow. Way to early to Assume we have turned the corner imo. We don't even know what Skibbes plans are or who he has in mind to start for this team.

^ I agree especially if they're not getting playing time, but what other options do we have? On the other hand everyone that plays as a starter for the NT should be a regular player with regular paying time. I guess we need to look at our options and see if a player like Kone or Tach is still better at half the playing time then Anyone else we have that is playing regularly.
