We are playing our Europa league game on the 28th which is next week and new seats are to be placed on the main stand and behind the goal (gate 13) also the VIP suits are expected to be fitted. The next week is going to be a mad rush working on the re-developments. Regarding the new tiers on both sides, if im not wrong we have yet to receive the license for this so there will probably be delays. Hopefully everything goes to plan.

Images of how the stadium should look once fully renovated. http://www.skai.gr/files/temp//232DBDD608E482C8C6297A90DD10B6A4.jpg http://www.skai.gr/files/1/%CE%B13/pao2%20(1'>http://www.skai.gr/files/1/%CE%B13/pao2%20(1).JPG'>http://www.skai.gr/files/1/

The work is planned to start straight after the play offs, let's just hope this happens and there is no more delays. The renovation will be in three stages. http://www.contra.gr/Columns/Comment/dimitris-kritis/panathinaikos/lewforos-se-treis-faseis.3961726.html http://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/etsi-tha-einai-i-nea-lewforos-vid/3151287

I don't think it is Alafouzos to blame, he has tried and done good for the money we have. The problem is we need a rich owner (like Pateras) who can spend money and bring class players.

I really liked Samaris at Oly, however for Greece he has been really bad since the World cup. Ninis is a great player, every game he has played this season he has done great. His recent injury pulled him back a bit. To be honest I wouldn't put him in the Cm position for a important game.

I understand Manolas and kpaps are overall better players. The reason I chose Siovas is because he has done great for Olympiacos in the CL, was outstanding against arsenal. Also before the World cup Sokratis and siovas were great together and so reliable.

-----------------------Karnezis------------------------- Torosidis--------Sokratis----Siovas--------Holebas -----------------------Tachtsidis------------------------- ----------Ninis---------------------Mantalos------------ -----------------------Fortounis-------------------------- ----------------Pelkas------------------------------------ ----------------------------Mitroglou--------------------- I know this team seems to attacking, however I think it would work. Against Hungary we saw how good Mantalos, Fortounis and Pelkas played together. Ninis could play in Samaris's position and create with his great passing. All I know this line up would create a lot of chances. Probably to attacking but we should try this out against Luxembourg.

Interview with Skibbe:

Tzavellas had an interview about skibbe, seems that he thinks its the right choice. http://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/tzabellas-gia-skimpe-enas-germanos-pou-agapaei-tous-ellines/3118334

Everything has been agreed with Skibbe and Tsanas will be one of his assistants, he is expected to sign this week. Regarding the appointment of Skibbe, of course I would have preferred a manger with a better CV, however that does guarantee a manager with a better CV would do a better job. Its not always about having a great cv. Look at Huub Stevens at Paok

I really hope Skibbe works out well for us. His cv isn't the worst, he has worked at Dortmund, Leverkusen and Frankfurt in the past. As for his time in Turkey we all know how Greek and Turkish boards are, very inpatient and sack managers every year. He spent four years as Germany's assistant manager which included the 2002 world cup. Lets hope he can bring the organisation and discipline back to our Ethniki. Greece doesn't need the greatest's of managers, we just need someone decent who will bring discipline.

I personally think Ninis should start, no other player can create like him. Greece lacks that creativity, especially from the last games.
