I don't understand his obsession with Tzavellas?? He's 35 yrs old and his best days are behind him! Also Bouchalakis and Fountas? I see no Douvikas and Fortounis but Tzavellas and Bouchalakis are worthy. He's hurting the team with his selections. Can we hire a coach that will pick the best and in form players for once???
So, is Tzavellas worthy or unworthy? It's not clear. 'I'm not worthy!!'

Fortounis retired from the Ethniki. This reminds me all over again, about the potential returns of Sokratis, Manolas, Siovas & some creative mids a number of years ago. Like the words in that movie Frozen say, 'let it go.' This is now a new era. Bring on the likes of Konstantelias & Alexandropoulos.

That report tells me that Gus Poyet is a bonehead. Evidence for this are team selections. Also, Ethniki are not Euro class as well.

He may be a good team influence. It's not a coincidence that every coach has picked him.
Thats true but now the gaffer hopefully has learn't to finally trust the players that are all ahead of Tzavellas.
He can be brought in as an assistant coach if he is that great off the pitch, not to take a playing position. That means someone else missed an opportunity to represent they're country.

Douvikas - not sure why he wasn't called up. He has been in good form.
Tzolis - Just got recalled to Norwich, just started getting game time
Tzavellas is a mystery. Overall though, I think most of us would pick the same 18 guys. It's the last few which we question.
I can understand the team having experienced warriors around the team when they are preparing for matches. Having Tzavellas in the squad taking up an actual playing spot is going too far.
If the gaffer picks the likes of Tzavellas going forward from here when there is no injury crisis, that is clear evidence that he has not got enough trust in his players and he can say whatever rubbish he wants, 'it does not compute.'
Having experience around the squad is important and can be in the form of ex players or certain coaching staff, not in the form of a player taking up a playing position in the natonal team squad. He was never going to play in any of these two matches.

No manager was willing to give Mantalos a chance as a central mid. Finally, Gus did that, not straight away either and with Petros' speed and smarts handles the position with ease. This new dynamic benefits the Ethniki with more speed in the middle of the park, especially as it seems that the likes of Galanopoulos and Alexandropoulos have gone to an outerspace journey.

Bakasetas is the main outlet of goals being scored, and from outside the box. He has grown into his role. He is very durable, not injury prone either, like others. Undroppable at the moment.
-
I'll walk down Matoyianni Street in Mykonos in all my glory, if Bakasetas doesn't play this match. Fortounis will get bench, we all know that.

Argentina, Chile, Paraguay Uruguay I don't know why..

Oh well, I can just tell the Anglo Saxons I'm a Cypriot I guess. Soot re maik!

Kotsiras picked up an injury in training and will be unavailable for the Kosovo game. Rota should get the start at RB as he had a very good game vs N. Ireland.
Why didnt anyone from the staff warn the player about bindies and to not walk barefoot on the pitch hmm?

Baldockoglou will own it, Bravo re maik! Next he must learn about Pythagoras' theorem.

I don’t think the defenders will be the problem. I understand, he shouldn’t be there. I agree 100 percent. But I think it’s the attack that should be focused on. You can’t win if you don’t score. And that’s a big problem.
I hope Gaffer will have the team reflecting his playing style, given he has one. If the players can carry that out then they will win more. There is a continuation of previous regimes though, for whatever reason, injuries aside. None of Manolas, Sokratis, Siovas, Fetfa, Ninis and Fortounis. There is a reluctance in desiring technically gifted and experienced players anywhere near this squad, unless you are Tzavellas and Bakasetas.
