That's is correct. Thats is why it was so important to win the group, but if not at least finish 2nd and have a slim hope. Greece finishing 3rd pretty much wrote themselves off. They will take the best 2nd place teams first if any of the 1st place teams qualify.
-
It's true. But the catch is Greece finished 3rd in their group. They are low on the pecking order. The best places teams in 2nd place go, then 3rd place is next.

Nothing will change. The guys running the EPO are corrupt asses who only want to look after themselves??

Next World Cup is a definite no. Only 13 teams from Europ go. Greece ain't one of them. There has to be a overhaul of the whole youth system. The whole youth development has to be looked at and changed. something is broken. my guess is they will never change. It's unbelievable when you look at a country like portugal and for the last 25 yrs have produced some of the best players in the world. I could name like 10 off my head , lol. Joao Felix just went to Atletico for $120 million. Greece needs to copy the blue print.

This statement is bang on. I'm thinking more like 10 yrs. but next World Cup qualifying is going to be harder. It's not been finalized yet but it looks like it's going to be 10 groups. Only the group winners qualify and the 10 2nd place finishers will join the 2 top teams from the nations league. For a playoff for only 3 teams. Europe only has 13 spots Meaning Greece is in league C so it won't matter if we finish 1st. We are so low in rankings we will never be a top 2. Greece keeps going down in FIFA rankings so next qualifying we will be in pot 5 probably and get a hard group. we won't qualify boys lol

Of course it's EPO. finally someone gets it. Think about it. Greece won the Euros in 2004. What has happened since then? Has the facilities for youth improved? Has youth program and coaching improved? Of course not. The EPO take the money and line their pockets. Our future is s%$#! as long as the EPO doesn't change.

Actually they lost to Italy already. So they would have to lose to either Armenia, litchenstein, or Greece. Plus Italy again and Bosnia. You could forget it. Even if Finland lose 3 games which I really think is unlikely. We would have to win 5 games straight. Do you think we can beat the Italians in Rome? And a tough one away in Armenia? We will be lucky to beat Finland and Bosnia at home. Its over. The best thing this coach can do is call up young players and prepare for World Cup qualifying next fall. This tournament we will be watching everyone else ? get use to it Greece is so far behind that it's going to be a decades before we qualify again We couldn't even get a lifeline via the nations cup. Wtf lol ?????

I've been saying the same thing since We failed to qualify in 2016. You could see the writing on the wall. Greece will not qualify for another tournament for a long long long time. We could already tell when as Euro champions we couldn't even qualify for the World Cup in Germany shame?? We won the Euros in 04 but what has changed? There has been no change with the federation or teams in building youth. Look at portugal where they keep challenging for youth titles and pumping out young players. What does Greece have? Nothing. I hope we all enjoyed those 5 tournaments we qualified for since 04. Because we won't qualify again. Lol ?

I love how everyone says we are good on paper. Lmfao ????? we should be the paper champions of the world ??????? listen. We are s%$#!. Our coach is s%$#!. We keep losing to teams that anyone can beat. We keep going down the rankings. We are not qualifying for the 2020 Euros. And next Year when they do the groups for the WC qualification we will be in pot 5. Making it even more unlikely we will qualify. Bringing us even lower on the rankings. Lol this is a chain effect. We are F***ed. We will be on the outside looking in during the summer tournaments. It's going to be decades before we qualify.
-
It's just going to be a downward trend. By the time this qualification is over we will be down near 60. Only 28 pts separate us from 60th lol ? qualifying for the next tournament will be so hard. We will probably be in pot 5
