We looked good yesterday, deserved the win. Can't remember the last time I saw opposing players constantly foul our guys to stop them from going to go on a break, it happened repeatedly to Tsimikas and Douvikas. Hellas Pod do a great job!!

A win is a win. At a minimum, it shows that we have heart.

Why take a chance to look good...

So things didn't work the first time, so you put in the same line up pretty much....

Αναλυτικά η 11άδα της Εθνικής: Βλαχοδήμος, Μαυροπάνος, Τζαβέλλας, Χατζηδιάκος, Τσιμίκας, Ανδρούτσος, Μπουχαλάκης, Ζέκα, Μπακασέτας, Δουβίκας, Παυλίδης

It's just a lot of negative sentiment now. We need to just put the past behind us and move forward. What has happened, is over, we need to move forward. At the very least, play for pride.

I want players who will run and give it their all. Watching those two go in slow motion was terrible!!

At the end of the day, results matter.

I was looking at whoscored.com - the man of the match was Bakasetas. Every time I look at these sites, he is always "our best player".

I would put in Papadopoulos instead of Restos. Love that guys energy!! Obviously, I rather have Manolas in there or Siovas but that's another conversation.

I was surprised he started Mavropanos after that terrible game he had with the Swiss.

Having gotten a chance to watch the game, I am just gutted. We played terrible, well, neither team played well but the point is what happened to the pressing we saw in the friendly? What happened to the attacking? You had the same players available for both games. I used to defend JVS bc I thought we had started playing more attacking but something has changed. In these three games, we have played horribly. At the end of the day, you are what your record is and we are a winless team. We may not lose, but we also don't win. You can say we don't have the talent, but it doesn't take talent to run and press. The hustling that we had seen earlier is now gone. If he loses the Sweden game, I see him being fired as we will be out of it.

Well - He will see out this round of games. The truth is that anything less than a win against Kosovo will end our chances.

Spain has an amazing team but for all the chances they create, they should be scoring 4 a game. They dominated the Italian team in the Euros but couldn't score. Sweden, in a way, is a team that mirrors us. They prefer to play defense and counter, will be interesting to see how they play us.

So after Sunday, I expect the following: Spain 10 pts 5 g Sweden 9 pts 3 g Greece 5 pts 3 g Kosovo 3 pts 4 g Georgia 1 pts 5 g

Game over, 2-1 Sweden. Doesn't change anything for us. We still need to win our games. Anything other than a win on Sunday pretty much ends our chances.

He's been getting bad press the last two tourneys. Murray is still very popular.

Neither Mantalos or Bakasetas impressed in midfield. We need someone else...

Overall - We had more possession, more chances. Missed two golden chances in the second half, one should have gone in for sure. We did get caught out a few times on counters. The thing we were missing was someone in the middle to organize our attack. Our right side also didn't attack as much. Mavropanos had a terrible game.

he was one on one with the goalie, he saw another player (who had a swiss player marking him) coming through and passes it. Predictably, it hit the swiss player.

What a chance, one on one and Douvikas passes to no one...

Score though says otherwise.

Playing ok - Have possession, have gotten caught out on the break a few times but we have had our chances. I would say an even game, slightly in our favor.

He had everyone beat, hit the post!!

Pavlidis missed!!! Wide open!!!
