ARIS game had a premium of 7.99, Lamia was 4.99.

Didn't Tunisia play in the world cup last summer?

Let's not get carried away with him, he is still learning. There is a reason why Manolas is considered one of the best in Europe. Sokratis is also highly valued even as he ages. He looked good but also was partially responsible for that goal. If Dzeko would have played, would he have been able to handle him? Potential is there but needs more time.

Don't want to get carried away but we looked great. For a non-attacking team, 25 shots is pretty great. You can still see that we need a bit more quality in the final third. Having said that, our grit was amazing!! So much hustling, so much energy. I want this to be taken to the next qualifiers. Saying we are better without Sok/Manolas would not be right. We need them but they need to play within his system.

Funny how we did this without our two best players - team first. Not saying that they were the problem but we definitely needed a refresh. Let's see how we do against Armenia away.

Did anyone notice at the end that they all got together to take in the win, they wanted it badly!!

The take away is that we are creating - fetfa did what he had to...

I don't think they are handing us anything, we are just taking it to them. They haven't had any time to regroup. 24 shots for us, 4 for them.

Can't say we are sitting back defending...geez, have never seen us attack so much...

Masouras - what an impact...

Having said that, we are at least trying, wanting the game. Limnios keeps getting open. Bakasetas hasn't been bad. Giannoulis looks like he needs more time. Hatzi looks good at times, raw on others. Kourbellis has been intercepting everything. Even Staf at CB has looked good.

Let's not forget, both Santos and Rehhagel called up players we were not crazy about. Does anyone remember Vyntra starting in the world cup as a CB, or Tzavellas or a way past his prime Charisteas.

Bakakis has had a good game as well, fast as well

Open game with Greece having the best chances..

Tie game

They are hustling and actually keeping the ball...some decent passing as well

And Limnios is fast

Greece has been creating, just lacking quality up front...

Well - if they do light it up in practice, hopefully that will encourage all of them to do the same.

He's treating it as a friendly...

Staf as CB, Mandalos should be in place of Bakasetas, Fetfa/Donis instead of Mandalos

I like the fact that he benched Fefta for tardiness. You need to show commitment and professionalism. Hopefully it resonates.

Masouras didn't play because he was suspended. Koulouris hustles but lacks that final quality. Limnios impressed. The formation and the formation was great, we played very well as a group and a million times better than the 1st leg with better defenders in Sok/Manolas. I would remove Bakasetas and replace with Fefta. Donis for Koulouris. Tsimakis for Staf, Retsos for Bakakis, Use Masouras/Pavlidis/Varsouj off the bench. My biggest question is why Vlacho didn't start. Paschalakis wasn't even called and he comes in and starts. Didn't make sense at all.

Donis has shown flashes of brilliance, he is talented but needs to be more consistent. We do not have anyone like him, if you see some of his highlights, you can see how quick he is. He has scored some impressive goals against Bayern.
