  1. Do we know why Kostantelias left? It could be from coach not really using him, which wouldn’t change given his tendencies so it would be hard to get him on board. I know he has a complicated family situation too though so maybe it had something to do with that idk.
  2. Guys this squad value of Germany consists of Havertz, Tah, shlotterbeck, Musialia, Kimmich and several other players who didn’t play today and have been hurt, Same with the Dutch. In fact if u take starting 11 squad values today our teams are a lot closer than that: my point remains: WE ARE GREATLY IMPROVING AND I AM GENUINELY THRILLED. Everyone here keeps giving these explanations about why I should just shut up and be happy and trust me I am gladly wrong about Ionnidis for example and I hope I’m wrong about coach not being able to adapt his tactics. My singular point is this: very impressive results but we should be cautious about how we are playing long term and yes these teams are better than us on paper but they aren’t the giants we think we have slayed as they are currently constructed. We can be proud of our results while also pointing out the facts. I’m glad my hot takes are getting the forum popping though, feeling like skip bayless or Steven A smith😂
  3. All jokes aside, like I keep saying, I’m very excited that we are beating a weak Germany versus drawing with Kosovo and I am very excited for the future.
  4. Again I 100% agree with you, I’m just worried that in typical Greek fashion EPO will reward him with a longer contract and then we waste this generation. I’m still celebrating and reloading the group table everyday just to see us in the top 2 lol. Of course just qualifying for a major tournament would be a huge change of pace but I think we are capable of so much more. It has been a huge improvement but I just don’t want us to sell ourselves short.
  5. We also need to keep in mind that this German team is not the Giants of old. This is nowhere near the team that played in the World Cup who already weren’t that good, on top of that, Klopp it’s rotating different young players and instilling his system. The Serbian team is in its own dark age. The Netherlands were also without a handful of their starters. Yes, I am ecstatic. Do not let all my negative comments fool you, I am being pessimistic because I could see what this team is truly capable of based on their talent and our Greek mindset. I don’t want us and the media to get too fixated on these results, and because of this, we keep the same Coach who keeps the same tactics who barely got these results. Yes, the Greek teams of the past 10 years would have still probably lost most of these games. I am so happy we are winning games again and could potentially compete in the nations league which none of us even thought for a second was possible. All that is to say, we cannot fall into the mindset of “ well if you told me at the beginning of the campaign, we would have eight points I wouldn’t believe you”. If we did this against the likes of Spain, France, Portugal, England I would be more inclined to agree with everyone. Nonetheless, they have given us some joy after 12 years of disappointment and for that I am grateful.
  6. He looked like he yelled at the coaching staff as to why they took him off
  7. Wonder if it’s an attitude thing. There were some games last year for Brighton he was taking off the team sheet without an explanation… idk just speculating
  8. Interesting time give Mouzakitits some playing time. I’m Hopeful 🇬🇷
  9. Please please please Kostoulas you would think I’m his agent or something lol
