You can’t blame JVS on this one started the players he should have and made the right subs to force the attack..The one mistake maybe I would have keto two strikers instead of taking of Giakoumakis for Pavlidis..We have definitely improved under this coach but at the end of the day if we can’t top a group like this one we have no business going to group B as we would get our asses handed to us.. What does this really say about our chances in the qualifying group for the World Cup? Not good at all.. We played a good game but they need to win these types of games if they want to climb up the fifa standings.. We were undefeated and allowed 1 goal against but at the end of the day we just can’t score..

We have showed a lot of hustle and good transition and overall a good team effort with a few chances to score. Normally i would be very happy so far but knowing this is our final and has so much implications if we win we needed to do more. The second half we have no choice now we have to go all out which might leave us vulnerable for Slovenia to counter but we really don't have a choice.

I think Slovenia won’t press as much in this game as they will play a more defensive role and only open it up if they are trailing. Like us they have only allowed 1 goal against so they are pretty sound defensively especially against a Greek team who has trouble breaking down teams and scoring goals.. JVS needs to approach this game with a lot of urgency and he needs the team flying out of the gate and not give The Slovenians a chance to build confidence and to set the pace of the game.. The Greek team also needs to watch the counter which I think Slovenia will be waiting for as they no Greece will be pressing to score..

I think we can all agree for as long as I can remember most guys on here don’t want to see Bakasetas play including myself.. The team looked good in the first half and that’s a big thanks to Fortounis who I’ve always said is hands down our best and most consistent player.. I’m happy about the win but what drives me crazy is at one point the Slovenia game was 1-1 and we needed to score 3 or more goals to over take them and JVS takes off Fortounis instead of Bakasetas, where is the logic in that? Bakasetas was horrible today and was fortunate to have a ball gifted to him by Fortounis. To this day I’m still so damn confused with what the love is with him as he ruins any attack and flow the team has yet he’s the captain and a guaranteed starter.. I also think if Mantalos was healthy we probably wouldn’t of seen Fortounis. anyways on to the next game, like so many in here have already said if we can’t beat Slovenia we simply don’t deserve to play in group B yet alone a World Cup with much stiffer competition.
