I just find Pelkas a better player. I also think he provides more on the field with his speed, vision and passing. Also Pelkas has been in the Ethniki and I believe he is needed again, even as a bench option.

Some more good news. https://gre-365.com/2016/11/28/λυκογιάννης-το-επόμενο-αριστερό-μπακ/ I rated Lykogiannis at Olympiakos. He is fast, strong and takes good free kicks. Here is the free kick he scored with his club Sturm Graz. http://www.xxxyyyzzz (spam)/XXXxxxXXX (spam)-allnews/20161128-01

https://gre-365.com/2016/11/29/τι-τρέχει-με-τους-διεθνείς-των-ελληνικ/ Some good news for the National Team.

It's unfortunate for Pelkas as he was rated highly by Tudor last season and almost played every game. Mystakidis and Charisis show brilliance at times but they are no where near the level of Pelkas. I hope he plays more now, not only for his development, not only to progress as a player but also for the national team as he is needed in the team. I remember in the Hungary game where he, Fortounis and Mantalos worked very well together and we won our first match of the last match of the Euro Campaign.

That's not like him. I think it was the injury he recovered from. Give him a few more games and he will be better than before.

Can someone tell me the next best players for our national team does anyone believe that we are going to have future star players. Fortounis I believe should leave the Greek League. Bouchalakis needs to improve and Charisis, Pelkas and Mystakidis need to step it up more.

In the big games we always do very well defensively. We always focus on defence. Maniatis and Samaris are both defensive minded, while Tachtsidis is attack minded with his passes and positional play. We need one person in the midfield to run box to box while 2 others are sitting deep. We should play 3 in the midfield in a 4-3-3.

I didn't watch the game against Bosnia. Most people have been saying he was one of our worst players along with Mantalos. Can you or anyone specifically tell me what he did wrong.

I can't recall Samaris doing anything spectacular apart from the game against Ivory Coast. What do people expect him to do? He is a defensive midfielder. To me he has been a breath of fresh air to watch. Especially since Katsouranis retired and Tziolis not been playing very often. He gave the team a better look from midfield. He gives the midfield a faster pace with his passing.

But Maniatis and Tziolis get to play even though they have not played for their clubs all season. Bouchalakis is like a Tziolis player shooting wise. Petsos is like Maniatis stamina wise. They both have played more than the other two. Siopis should get a chance alongside Samaris. It would make more sense. Tachtsidis is a top player and has been playing regularly for his club. Has Pelkas been playing for PAOK? He is a top player in my opinion and should be in the squad.

We should play Mantalos LW and whoever is inform RW. Kone/Ninis would be a good option off the bench. I don't want to see Zeca in the team. Bouchalakis is better in my opinion.

No re I didn't mean it like that. I do the same. I'm always using Greece in FIFA 17, I'm always trying different formations and new players. I also try and keep it realistic with the squad. I believe Kone offers more than Bakasetas but Bakasetas is talented and needs more time. Fetfatzidis outshines both of them.

Most of your player selections seem to be based on FIFA 17. Whenever you speak about the team it sounds like your basing it on the game.

But Mantalos and Tachtsidis are needed for their creativity. I also like to see Mavrias in the team again. Also Pelkas. I also like to see free flowing attacking football with the young blood. Tsimikas is a player to look out for aswell.

It looked like we didn't try. We we're that bad in the first half that Fortounis and Sokratis had to come on. Fortounis wasn't even trying that much but because he has so much quality his 1 or 2 shots we're our closes chances to a goal. Karelis and Diamantakos dissapointed me the most and Tachtsidis is class. Tziolis only wishes he could play the way Tachtsidis plays his whole career.

That team looks mad. I'd like to see Siopis be given a chance. Kolovos too. I'm surprised you forgot to mention Tachtsidis and Mantalos.

We should be fine. If we can't win without Manolas then we should not be at the World Cup. We have Sokratis and K.Papadopoulos. They work well together. Also we have Samaris back, plus we have Fortounis and Mitroglou creating goal scoring chances. I also think Manolas is more of a liability than Papadopoulos.

http://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/kamia-ekpliksi-stis-kliseis-skimpe-gia-bosnia/3238924 No surprise.

Does anyone know the squad yet this is too late. We are playing the friendly in 5 days surely it should be up by now.

^ I think that was Maniatis.

I agree. Who do you think can replace Mitroglou down the line?

I don think I've ever seen the national team with a full team. For example ive never seen the team with all our best players injury free. Ninis, Kone, Fetfatzidis and few others. We all know Fetfatzidis can take Gianniotas place. We all know Ninis can take Bakasetas place. The reason why I believe Maniatis and Tziolis keep on getting chosen is because we are very light in that position.

I think Maniatis will be chosen. Skibbe I believe will try and keep the same team. It's a good idea because you should have the same players around as it benefits the team.

I saw this on Sport24.gr. He will be out for 2 weeks but not sure If he will play this match.

I agree Fetfatzidis has not dissapointed. He was always a class above everyone in the attacking third. His speed and dribbling make him as a player. He and Ninis provide so much flair something Fortounis and Mantalos are not at the same level at.
