What a beautiful cross from Zeca..

I think if we score one the flood gates will open but if go into the second half scoreless the team will fee a lot of pressure..

Missed the first 15 mins have we had any chances yet?
Not really.. I think we hit the net once and that was a free kick just now from Laz.. sloppy ball movement..
-
Okay no more screwing around I think it's about time we score a goal..
-
Wtf is it so empty.. do they not give a s%$#!??
-
Do the seeded teams automatically start the first game of the playoffs at home?
-
Looks like this is what we are going with.
Karnezis
Toro---------kpaps---------Sokratis-----Staf
Zeca---------Taxi
Mantalos-----Fortounis------Laz
Mitro
this line up looks solid..

In reality Mitroglou doesnt even need to play to get a result in this game, but after the Faroe Islands disaster i wouldnt take any chances. As a striker he should not be getting a caution. After 2 goals i would take him off.
Ya very true I was just thinking that.. we lost to Luxembourg and the fore islands twice so why take the chance.. Inagree if we are up by a couple take him out..

If they were smart Mitro should have taken a yellow in the Cyprus game so he would miss this game and have a clean slate for the playoffs... It puts him in danger getting a yellow in the first leg of the playoffs and missing the second game..

Something to keep our eyes on, Mitro, Tzavella, Stafylidi and Retso are one yellow away from missing the first leg of the play-off (assuming we get it done tonight) Losing Mitro would be a disaster, while if we lost both our left backs it would leave us with a hole
That's why Manolas, Donis and I think Samaria all took a yellow on purpose last game against Cyprus so they would miss this game and have a clean sheet going into the playoffs.. Those yellows that were taken were all on purpose.

^Me too bro it's so depressing watching these tournaments without the Ethniki... take us to the playoffs and the Greeks will find a way to get in I truly believe that..
-
F*** we are all talking about playoffs myself included can you imagine Greece doesn't win tomorrow.... omg... There's no way the can't happen right??

not the appropriate topic but since most of you have heard about the nations league thing going up next september..that's our group if we do beat gibraltar
serbia, albania, norway, greece
I haven heard of that until now so I just googled it. Nice that means every summer we get some type of tournament right? World Cup, the following summer nations tournament and the summer after that euro? Is that right?

Seeded:
Switzerland/Portugal
Italy
Croatia
Denmark/Sweden
Unseeded
Sweden/Denmark
Republic of Ireland
Northern Ireland
Greece
Croatia Denmark/Sweden really look appealing considering the other 2.
I completely agree.

Oh, so your expecting Switzerland to be a cakewalk? LOL!
Um No...
thats not what I said at all.. actually I don't think anyone we play would be a "cake walk" Swiss would be tough but I think Portuga right now would be a little tougher..
-
Croatia scored again they will be seeded and now that Italy scored they will be seeded as well.. Damn it looks to be a tough draw.. let's hope Portugal isn't there as well..F*** need wales to score and tie the game..
-
Ya s%$#! Croatia scored.. wouldn't we rather wales beat Ireland as Wales would be a seeded team?
-
I want Wales to win as they would be a seeded team and I would love if Ukraine beat Croatia.. but honestly Italy does not look good right now, they dropped points against Macedonia and are struggling against Alabama..

If Tziolis played in the biggest game of the year for us against Cyprus you can almost garuntee he will play in November..I'm very proud of our accomplishment as of now but I'm not a fan of the selection either but we can yell until we are blue in the face nothing will change Skibbe is who he is and he will pick who he wants even though I don't agree with it.. Laz needs to be a starter, Taxi also need more playing time. Yes Tziolis scored a big goal for us bravo but he still shouldn't be in the line up.. I truly think Skibbe is a little stubborn in his ways and he goes with his gut more then common sense when he puts his line up together.. we have the potential to have some really good players in our staring line up and a pretty good bench if the right guys were called up. Regardless it is what it is.. let's smash Gibraltar and hopefully get the weakest seeded team and after we beat them we can relax until June when we make it to the WORLD CUP!!!

My prediction:
POT 1: Portugal or Switzerland, Wales, Italy, Croatia
POT 2: Sweden, Denmark, Northern Ireland, Greece
If Croatia fails,
Sweden may go into POT 1 and Ukraine into POT 2.
Whatever the outcome, we will be heavy underdogs, but if we are at our best we won't be easy. We conceded just 5 goals in our 8 games against the top 4 teams in our Group.
I think back to Tzavellas goal in the last kick of the match, in the 95' min vs Bosnia in Greece. Got us a point. How valuable did that turn out to be.
With out Tzavellas goal we are not in the position today... That goal saved our campaign... I think there was less then a minute to play if I'm not mistaken... I remember I was on the plane from LA but we had not taken off yet and I was watching it on my ipad in my seat I screamed so loud "F*** Yes" the entire plane looked at me and I stood up and apologized. LOL

Does anyone know when the playoff draw would be?
-
^ Exactly... Imagine our last game was against Belgium or even Bosnia and we needed a win... We now have to beat the whipping boys of the group to advance into the playoffs to get into the World Cup.. All the pieces have fallen exactly as we needed.

Greece vs Gibraltar (10 Oct. 2017, 21:45 EET - Karaiskakis Stadium, Piraeus)
in Greek National Teams

Zeca has been solid.. we've questioned him when we got him but the guy has heart and runs up and down the pitch like crazy.. he deserves to be a starter.
