we're lucky we got karnezis and a very young kapino my friend was saying in greece any time a player seem promising they usually just make them cb as it's easier to train for and greece's training is limited so will result in a net profit.

pelka

fetfa assisted a goal against barca playing for al-kabbob

I was comically thinking that perhaps this 'family idea' is an excuse to not scout which players are in form which takes work lol.

lazaros is on fire this season. game winner in superleague today and europa league this week... he has pace, crossing, set play work, and now apparently finishing...

kone just joined aek and ninis is doing quite well in belgium so I don't think they're done for. ninis is just as young as fetfa

in other news fifa 18 ratings are slowly coming out. holebas boosted to 78 and sokratis 86. http://www.futhead.com/18/players/?nation=22&bin_platform=ps

imagine mitroglou donis fortounis fetfa tachtsi kpaps we would have 2nd locked. And possibly would have beat Belgium.

it was Samaris's job to close down Vertonghen. the Belgians recognized that our defense was hard to crack so they were taking outside box shots with their cb's as a coping strategy and our s%$#! cdm duo was exposed.

it'll be interesting. even belgium didn't use hazard against us, was he injured or what? if they're not gunna use a healthy hazard whilst still having to qualify I'd imagine they would not play a full lineup now having qualified.

finally got to watch the game. we deserved to get at least a point imo. our best players = staf, donis, zeca, manolas our worst = tziolis, samaris I think our CM/CDM combo should be kpaps and tachtsidis going forward.

then i'd bench karelis and sub him on later mayhaps. do u know of greek league will be in? no idea I'd check futhead. the game gets released sept 29th i believe so should be on futhead by then or sooner.

I predict greece will win if we have mitroglou and karelis back and full lineup. possibly by more than one goal like 2-3. Karelis Mitroglou Staf Fortounis Donis Tachtsi Kpaps Tzav Sokratis Manolas Torosidis Karnezis with this lineup we'll win for sure.

out = maniatis, tziolis, diamantakos, velios in = fetfa, pelkas, holebas, bouchalakis

think we're still more likely to finish second than bosnia too. 1. they have to beat Belgium in an empty stadium and the got smoked by them last game. 2. Estonia has picked up form and they have to face them as well. 3. Mitroglou and Karelis will most likely be back so we can score some goals.

lol watch it be Greece vs Portugal in the playoffs...

there's really no excuse as to why fetfa hasn't been called up if Tziolis is starting for the NT and playing in the same damn league. manager of the year award goes to Tziolis's manager lol.

if kone can pickup form he's a possible 3rd option for CF/ST behind mitro and karelis

still think its more likely that we'll grab 2nd than not. since when in the history of football do NT's gift other teams games? Doesn't happen, athletes always play to win. We still have Gilbratar too with Karelis and Mitroglou possibly coming back we can beef up our goal ratio. zeca plays so hard. We should have had tachtsi in there instead of tzioli. also unfortunate to not have any in form striker. tzavella also turns it up for the NT. I don't get the hate with fortounis, he's not the fastest player but he's not slow either. Yes we're extremely fortunate to have Donis in the mix now as he's been a class above but who would rather in there besides Fortounis? I think Manolas would do a better job marking Lukaku rather than Sokratis. Manolas is stronger in the air.

estonia just beat cyprus. wacky group we have.

donis is not a goal scorer, he's a chance creator. that's the problem. no mitroglou eh?

best realistic scenario I see here is a 0-0. Cyprus is shitting the bed against Estonia as we speak as well. Estonia pretty much parking the bus against everyone and they DO actually have a decent D unlike Gilbratar who are human pilons.

lol I'll be surprised if we can even grab a point against Belgium, have a feeling we're gunna get embarrassed. Still confident we can qualify through 2nd place though.

yeah don't think we have a chance here without a full lineup. our home games mean nothing, not enough people fill the stadium and Belgium has close to a full lineup and will be looking for revenge.

guys fortounis has 4 goals this season in 5 games. he's the least to blame from anyone. Though yes Donis did look sharper. You have to keep in mind that Fortounis is a CAM who provides service though and Donis is a Winger/Cf which is quasi service / goal scoring. This reminds me when people were ripping on Mitroglou 'not trying' for the NT. Of course he wants to play well for the NT, he was getting terrible service! we lost because we're a top heavy side with not a lot of depth in positions except for cb. Also the wrong selection of Tziolis when Tachtsidis gave the assist to Mitroglou against one of the worlds best, Belgium. once we have Torosidis, Karelis, and Mitroglou back. Drop Tziolis and have Tachtsidis in, we're a different team. That's like 40% of the team right there, that's huge.
