Not sure about that - they have been hustling for every ball.

We have had our chances.....

He's not a right back...

The announcers said that Kosovo must be happy..

Fortounis in

so close....

That must have been the worst shot by Bouchoulakis that I have ever seen...

Hatzi for the save

off the line!!!

it has been 50-50 this half...

They had a great opportunity to open up the scoring. Vlaho had a good save.

Limnios has been great, they can't keep up with him. Mantalos is good but not playing in the right position. I said Pavlidis has made bad decisions but he holds the ball up well and he does get open. I see why he gets goals.

HT 0-0 Overall, we have played well. Better than Moldova but nothing to show for it. Our poor decision making has left them off the hook. Also their goal keeper has played really well.

Overall - We are playing well but once again, making poor decisions inside the box. Not sold on Pavlidis. I know he's had a great year but not sure he is the answer at striker.

Mantalos does not belong on the wing, that is obvious.....

He mentioned that in his press conference that OLY uses him the same way...

He's injured I think..

It was odd because I thought media outlets were saying that there would be 2 or 3 changes from the last match. If it's not working, making the changes quickly.

I don't want him on the wing (Mantalos) but I think he played well there for a few games when he and Masouras were alternating. That was at the beginning, the last few games he hasn't played well.

I remember Santos getting 1-0 wins while playing defensive football against giants like Luxemburg/Malta. Results matter, first and foremost. At least now we are touching the ball, in the past we would play in our half the whole time. Does anyone remember playing against Sweden in one of the finals??? We had possession, the ball would make it halfway up the pitch, the minute we were pressed, the ball would be passed back all the way to the goalkeeper.

In regards to Fortounis, the reporter was asking him why he doesnt play/start. I think he was trying to say that he doesn't start on his club team - that is how he is used there.

It seems like he had nerves - 1st call up, young - was going 100 miles and hour...

The difference between how we played now and how we played in the beginning of JVS's tenure is the ability of being able to build from the back. Our cb's have not been tested defensively however we have not had the ability to bring the ball up from the back which we did better at the beginning. Also, you can totally see Mantalos does not belong on wing. Either put Masouras (when he returns from injury) or Giannoulis/Tsimakis up there. I am not 100% sold on Pavlidis yet. I know he has had success in the Netherlands but for some reason, I have not seen him turn it up for the NT. Not giving up on him, but maybe time to give someone else a chance (not Koulouris). Fountas? The last spot is the right back. Not sure who we can put there but Rota did not see ready (nerves??). Neither is Hatzi a good fit there, he belongs as a cb. Bakakis may have to do until we get someone else that can play there.

Great game, came close, lost it at the end...

Wasn't he going to be a free agent in June?
