First half was great how we moved the ball quickly and created so many chances. Their goalie made some great saves especially in the opening half. Our problem is as always we barely get goals from our strikers. Pavlidis was really disappointing couldn’t take a chance & he even took a through ball away from an open Mantalos running in at the back post. Giakoumakis didn’t do much coming on. Douvikas should have got a call up! Bakasetas was strong today. Fortounis spreads the ball around so beautifully and his vision is stellar. Good thing this was not a qualifier but we need to be winning these matches vs Lithuania and Malta to get our ranking up so we don’t get another horrible draw for the 2026 World Cup.

Bakasetas has definitely produced good performances and contributed goals since the last wcup qualifiers and Nations League. I was a huge critic of his as well but what he lacks in technical ability he makes up with his work rate on the pitch and you can see how much he loves to play for Greece. I agree with you regarding Pelkas & Mantalos I think for the friendly tomorrow we need to see others in the midfield. Though I must say Mantalos has turned in better performances for the Ethniki recently

Good points. Tzavellas should not have been called up this time around. He filled in well for the last wcup qualifiers but he hardly gets any minutes at AEK. Douvikas should be there 100%. I am excited too see Fortounis get the call up and I hope he gets a lot of minutes.

Good call ups. Good points. The NT now has some solid strikers to call up on. Can’t wait to see Fortounis back in the fold and hopefully playing alongside the super talented Konstantellias.

Fortounis looked sharp today vs AEK. Beautiful ball to set up Bakambu”s goal. Will he get a call up?

Great news that kid is going to be a fantastic footballer for years to come. Hearing a few big European heavyweights are interested in him. I want him to stay at PAOK and keep developing.
-
Ya PAOK could have scored a few goals in the first 10 minutes. They created many good opportunities in the first half.
-
Bright start for PAOK
-
Amazing. Tremendous performances by both players! Now bring that production to the Ethniki

I would like him to stay at Celtic or go to another big European club.
