Greek Style

Bahahahahaha! FFS! Goodbye good riddance. Cannot beat kosovo at home. Just go away JVS please.

TBH it would be great to be in a position where we can actually make a fiasco out of a big tournament. ATM we are nowhere near it.

Don't me started on Fortounis I mean WTF how is this guy not playing? Manolas? JVS should be on his knees begging these guys to come back after he didn't want to play them.

We are good enough to easily account for the Georgias and Kosovos of Europe and he failed to get a result when it really mattered against these two. And his choice of tactics was rubbish, fancy playing careful defensive football against those two teams, when you're playing at home in a must win game? Even against Spain we needed to win FFS so when we went 1-0 he changed nothing! NOTHING! Are you kidding me JVS for what reason would you not got for the win? Worst vase scenario we go down fighting and lose 3-0 or 4-1. To me he's clearly been protecting his job, too scared to take the risks required for reward.

You do not keep an underperforming coach just because you don't know who you can get that's better. You look at cutthroat games against minnows and he manages 2-3 shots at goal for 90 minutes. Just not good enough. Couldn't even coach an A-League side to a title and he had good players for the level.

JVS is no good. To sit back like that against one of the best passing sides in the world when we needed a win was just rubbish. The guy has no a*****a. Pavlidis is also complete s%$#! please if you are big, slow and skilless like that you at least need to have some sort of aerial presence. Credit to Masouras who at least makes dangerous runs and poses an attacking threat but he only finishes when he's offside. Another tournament without the Ethniki cannot believe it. 😖

To be fair which Greek player has played at a better club/league in this group of players?

Zeca. 🤣

Guys regardless of whether Samaris has a club or not he is easily the most accomplished and best Greek midfielder, has played in the strongest league against the best players. And held his own. Sure let him get a club but get him back he's light years ahead of Zeca for starters. Siopis too is rubbish. Correct me if I'm /wrong but Fortounis couldn't get a game even when he wasn't injured?

Manolas, Socratis, Fortounis, Samaris. These are the best Greek players. They make up over 33% of the 11. Yet none are playing.

Mavropanos was a brain fade of epic proportions. Just no need for it. Killed our spirit.

Bakasetas is fine he's done well. Ninis and Fetfatzidis please. We've been there done that. Both aren't up to it. Ninis was great until he got his injury vs Israel. Those two are definitely not the answer.

It's kind of disappointing that it took Vant Ship to the edge of being sacked to try and attack. Another big tournament without Greece.

Agree he is not much chop, slow, turns like a double decker bus and cant eat his bread and butter.

He had a free header, no challenge, 5 metres out. It's as easy as it gets at this level. If you don't understand the importance of scoring that goal take a look at the scoreline.

Eise kala? He was 5 metres out free header it's harder not to score. Yes I'm complaining.

Last time I checked the ball needs to go in the net to be on target?

There you have it. We dominate but no goal and now they will win. Mavropanos WTF is he doing sliding in like that with zero threat.

But no point dominating if we dont score. Pavlidis FFS free header five yards out cant hit the target.

True but fark re I want to win.

How many more chances does Masouras want to burn? Also Pavlidis almost criminal to miss that header bread and butter for a CF. If we dont score they will trust me I've seen this so many times.

That concerns me. Every time it's happened JVS goes ultra careful and defensive.

He can complain all he likes his tactics have sucked and look now what happens when you actually try to score. Our players are good enough no doubt and he doesn't choose the play the absolute best Greek players so why complain? Just on today how good is Tsimikas my goodness the kid is a star. It's like Giourkas all over again but this time on the left. Also Tzolis when he came on really gave us a different attacking threat cutting in from the right.

The players are fine, when they have no confidence this is the end result. A coach that sits back against rubbish like kosovo clearly inspires zero confidence in his players.

Is this m#$%! for real? Three shots at goal created in 90 minutes of football. Against minnows Kosovo. We used to beat these team 3-0 under Otto and Santos. Also he cant settle on a lineup. I mean the guy coached A-League FFS. League 2 standard at best. The sooner he's gone and we invest in a real coach the better. Meanwhile we face another major tournament without the Ethniki.
