France up 1 nil in Holland

Not a good lineup. Mantalos starting? Rota too. Only good move is starting Giakoumakis over Pavlidis.

It’s mind boggling he is not in the squad again.

That horrible first half ruined our head to head chances with the Dutch. If only we could have just lost by just a goal. Greece can beat Ireland. It won’t be easy but we have more quality and will be more organized with Mavropanos & Baldock. Need France to get a result vs Holland and then beat them in Athens. Who knows maybe the final game vs France could mean something? At this point though it looks like Greece will be playing in the playoffs.

A main concern after this match is how can none of our strikers score? Masouras got a couple goals & even Mavropanos. Pavlidis looks to be fighting it when he plays with NT he has not scored since last yr vs Cyprus in NL match. Giakoumakis is not consistent enough either. Douvikas should be on the team but apparently Poyet doesn’t rate him. Adding to this is that Fortounis the most offensively talented Greek player we had at our disposal retired the same day Poyet left him off the squad. Hopefully these things can be rectified he has done a better overall job by winning the NL and having Greece beat teams that we are suppose to be beating. At the end of the day Greece have to qualify for Euros.

Was watching the last 20mins of that match. Ireland have no idea how to build the play and play on the ground. Just long ball after long ball crap.

Dutch escaped with a win.
