Akritis_1944 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Kovacevic = blah. 34 year old striker? Why? Raul Bravo = good. Please do not fall into the trap of thinking that because someone is over 30 they are automatically crap and if they are under 26 they must be hyper-hot!Kovacevic is probably the biggest name Oly has gotten (Rivaldo aside) in the last 5 seasons. Period! Without a doubt. He has done super well with Real Sociedad and if he is fit and healthy he will score plenty of goals - Europe as well. He can play at this level for another 2 seasons. Raul Bravo on the other hand hasn't been able to establish himself into an average Real Madrid defense over the last few seasons. I could care less if he's a Spanish international. That being said, I do want him to sign with Thrylo and hopefully he proves to be a great acquistion. However my original point is that Kovacevic is a great aquisition! I would have preferred he was 29 instead of turning 34, but there is no reason that this type of player is washed up. Look at Djordjevic, the guy is the heart and soul of thrylo at his age.

Olympiakara10 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Are you kidding me? He had 3 goals in 33 games last season. He's done. He is not a big name signing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bar7 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 i dont think that these r signings to brag about.... but you need to be careful when crititisizing a player who scored 3 goals in Spain, which may equal to 12 in a weak Greek league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH-Thrylos Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 :D so ronaldinho would score like 40+ goals in greece? ;) i think we haven't made that bad signings. if konstantinou is fit and nunez will play like at argentina juniors, i think kovacevic will be a sub anyway. i think ivic & co should focus in getting someone for the defence and the midfield now. also after kicking out one greek player after the other we should get some greeks too. so far it looks like this: out 12: Rivaldo Grigoris Georgatos Charilaos Pappas Haruna Babangida Giannakis Okkas Erol Bulut Georgios Anatolakis Milos Maric Christos Lisgaras Giannis Taralidis Spyridon Vallas Kleopas Giannou in 8: Vance Sikov (not sure yet that he'll be playing for us) Jahmir Hyka (what can this guy do?) Dacol (will go on loan again for sure) Darko Kovacevic Leonel Jorge Nuñez Luciano Martín Galletti Konstantinos Mitroglou (lets see...) Paraskevas Antzas so we have 4 players who can be listed for a match and have a good chance to play... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GS1905 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I totally disagree with you olympiakara.. With good wingers (you have them with Gelletti and Djorjebitch) Kova will become a goalscoring machine in Greek league.. and I disagree with you about Bravo too.. He's just a garbage player who would NEVER EVER wear a Real jersey if he didn't come up from the youth academy.. That year Del Bosque was the coach and we know who he upgraded to the team (Casillas has been a success but have any of you heard about Alvaro Mejia and Pavon.. Bravo is in the same group with them..).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOLLYWOOD Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Kleopas Giannou is going to try his luck in Wales with Cardiff. The keeper has been released from the Greek Champions and Cardiff appears to be his 1st option. He will go on trial for a bit, and hopefully for him they pick him up. Apparently Kostas Haralambidis former PAO player is also on trial at the same club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Kostas Haralambidis former PAO player is also on trial at the same club. Bizarre!More so for Charalambidis. I thought this player was going places (and I didn't think it was Cardiff). cardiff city must have big ambitions as they are also trying to get Robbie Fowler. Good luck to Giannou.

I thought this player was going places (and I didn't think it was Cardiff). cardiff city must have big ambitions as they are also trying to get Robbie Fowler. Good luck to Giannou. Cardiff nearly got promoted to the Prem last year, they're a decent club. Personally I think Haralambidis should go to a bigger club though. Okkas is also go on trial with West Ham (a good move for him I think). As for Kovacevic <_< and Raul Bravo :blink: what the F*** is going on??? Its AEK's protathlima this year.

Hammarby Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I bet u the super league morrons have made it all up. Lets strengthen the teams to gain points in Europe and lets share the league between us cause thrylos can not always win, football would loose interest and all teams incomes would decrease which suits noone, or something like that.

NikosVazelas Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 depending on the upcoming transfers we will let see what osfp will have to offer. if they do sell Castillo, they will need three big signings. losing rivaldo and Neri in the same offseason would totally suck for them but be great for me as a pao fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Ribo is AND Neri is on his way out, and Kokkali has replaced them with bums! AEK will win the league and Oly will have the most embarassing season in the CL ever.

I'm off topic - but to go on with dude's point- Olympiakos is a 4th seed in the final 32 and AEK will be the same if they get through PAO will be our only point getter in Europe this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
