Boxou

Wait a minute--why Mitroglou is out? Also since the next official game is in September, Karelis will be fully recovered by then. In fact he will be back on practise even by February. Even talking about friendly games the nect one in the end of March.

so it looks like karelis has some problems with his heart and might stay out for even 3 months..he's the only real replacement we got at the moment and the guy has been suffering from several health problems the past year..F***k man that sucks....

nobody said he should be nt material but so aren't guys like diamantakos, vellios, tziolis, gianniotas, maniatis, koutroubis and kolovetsios who have been called up amongst others lately.

He's not a striker.

I disagree. He has a better potential than Kitsiou, so does Lykogiannis. They would offer more than him who showed no improvement in Paok for 3 years hence he was loaned out and I doubt they count on him at the moment with Matos, Vierinhia and Azevedo. About Koutris you'll notice major improvement once he moved away and don't forget he has only 1 and a half year experience in the Greek league, with one being at PAS and the other half with Olympiacos where he alreasy established himself as a starter and has drawn interest from several solid clubs like Benfica and Wolfsburg to say some.

Why would you actually try Kitsiou instead of Koutris? That guy is our future LB and sooner than later is moving to a solid foreign team like Retsos. Even Mpakakis and Lykogiannus need to be tried out, they have had better seasons than Kitsiou.

he's an aussie international now.

yup forgot torosidis :D

Mitroglou doesn't score much lately because with Skibbe's retarded tactics there's only Fortounis up front who can help him. But that's 2 vs the opposing defence and midfield. Why is that? Because our "wingers" are not wingers but either Cdms like Zeca or Amfs like Mantalos or Side backs like Stafylidis. And despite that they're told to sit back and defence first. As a result of so this s%$#! no-one can feed Mitroglou and he gets lost in the mediocrity of the rest of the team the way Skibbe picks up the XI. But as a really stupid coach he is, not only he doesn't call up the right players but also he doesn't utilize our players the way he should. Even teams with good offensive players tend to play with 3 in the back and 2 full backs. That's also our major weapon but that overpaid s%$#! can't see we lack wingers. Let's assume that our natural wingers at the moment are Donis, Lazaros, Fetfatzidis and Gianniotas. Only the first two are NT material. The other are not difference makers. So why don't we play like that I still fail to understand. Gk; Karnezis FRB; Stafylidis Cb: Sokratis Cb; Manolas Cb; Papadopoulos Cdm; Samaris Cdm; Kourmpelis Amf; Fortounis Amf; Donis Cf; Mitroglou Back ups; Kapino, Anestis, Koutris, Retsos, Hatzidiakos, Lykogiannis, Charisis, Tachtsidis, Mantalos, Pelkas, Karelis, Lazaros Overall ok.

katranis has been assigned to saint ettiene's b team. he has already played 5 games with them

Skibbe doesn't even call up Siovas to begin with so why not calling up Hatzidiakos instead of Kolovetsios and Koutroubis?

btw i hope skibbe realizes how important our next friendy games will be for our ranking. we are one of the best teams that was left our of the wc so it's quite certain we will play against wc teams that are sitting above us in the rankings. if we put out some good performances while they will be trying things for the wc we have a great chance to improve our ranking. yes integrate new players like hatzidiakos and charisis, refresh the squad and kick the κλικα out but these games are important for our future placement in the qualifying draws. same goes for the nations league which is much more important.

fetfatzidis scored his 5th league goal in saudi arabia.

i hope what this headless chicken said about replacing older players with some younger ones is true. i don't get why we should be watching tziolis and maniatis instead of kourmpelis and charisis, i don't get why we should be watching tzavellas instead of koutris, mpakakis and lykogiannis, i don't get why vellios and diamantakos get called up. if i see any of the above still in the nt then we will officially be a laughing stock.

Wikipedia says so, I have not seen anything official.

mitroglou is 29. He can easily play until the WC in 2022. That's a very long time. Also there are Donis and karelis and we're hoping for kampetsis to shine.

The winner of the whole thing. The team that will collect the most points in the group stage will host both the one legged semi final and the final game.

Has to be noted we mostly sent B and C choices over there..

On the bright side that gives us a far better chance to qualify for the euros..

if it was about a greek player i think some contra.gr would have found out.

where did you find about the scouter?

he's not player as a winger, but he has played there too in the season. he's playing either left or right in the midfield.

kourmpelis is a good player and will make a move abroad sooner than later. he's valuable for our midfield as well as charisis but for some reason skibbe will keep playing maniatis and tziolis over them.

bottom line gianniotas has never played for a good team in his career and he's like 24, so that makes him a low level player.
