Apostolos Vellios ‒ Pec Zwolle

[Dikefale11]

At 6'4 and with his strength you would think he would be better than he is. 

 

Sure getting game time is good and all but its the Danish league.

 

At 23 and still relatively young he should be looking at one of the top 4-5 leagues. He's not going to develop in any way playing in Denmark.

[Nikitas]

seems he isnt scoring that much. he doesnt play for a premier leugue team there , he plays for 2nd division club FC Vestsjaelland. thats the 3th best leugue in demark if im correct.

[Dean97]

I agree Vellios should be given a chance on the ethniki because dont know lately all our players in the striking position are playing horrible and. i know Vellios will not score 4 goals for us but who knows. we should just give him a chance and let him prove how good he can be. surely put him instead of Klaus, and Mitroglou is not in the form like he was and we should also give a shot to Diamantakos in the friendly. Aravidis should also be given a chance. Also u reckon we should give Salpingidis another shot at striker or not?

No way Vellios gets selected ahead of Mitro, Klaus, Giannou or Aravidis.

He's playing in a low level league and he's not exactly banging them in. Aravidis is more deserving of a NT call up.

He either steps up and scores 25 goals in Denmark and takes his game up to the next level or he just stays a professional footballer earning a pay cheque.

This is the reality of where Vellios is at the moment.

Hi GrkCdn22 , good to see you to man! i didnt follow vellios at all after he left lierse on loan and remember far away that the team he plays for now didnt play highest division but that was long time ago , i should have looked better hahaha.

 

yeah amorgos i did a very wrong search about him , not sure what i was doing there hahahaha. this is what i found with my wrong search. 2004/2005 season.

Absolutely ridiculous this guy would get a call up over any of our other guys. Vellios over Klaus? Are you kidding me?

 

Would rather see Diamantakos over Vellios, but he'd be a DISTANT fourth to Samaras/Mitro/Klaus. Aravidis, needs to show his current form in the first division before I bite.

 

I have a cousin who plays in a league at his middle school, maybe we should call him up? He's got swagger, after all.

[Nikitas]

@the taxman , hi dude. i wasnt really following vellios but more people are interested i will check now and then news around him.

@reaper not a bad idea kyriakos at cf haha.

[pash]

My swagger is doled out in measured amounts so as not to introduce inflationary pressure on the market.

[Nikitas]

he reached the final of the danish cup after losing the 2nd leg 1-0 but he won the first match with 2-0. he also got a yellow card.

[Nikitas]

exactly , not bad for a team that is in the relegation zone. he is playing now , half time score is 1-1.

[Dikefale11]

Played in the final today and lost 3-2. Vellios scored the first goal after 31 minutes.

[Akritis_1944]

Good strikers goal. If Mandzukic scored that goal some guys would be jerking themselves stupid.

I say he should get a call up against the Faroes as they play a similar style to their big brothers the Danes so Tolis should be well prepared and know what to expect.

[Nikitas]

vellios scored the 0-1 today but lost 2-1 in the 95th minute and relegated with his team.

after his danish team relegated vellios will return to lierse sk who also relegated. hope he can play first division soccer somewhere else.

[Nikitas]

vellios signed for 2 years at iraklis. its for the best that he returned to greece since he failed everywhere he went.

[Akritis_1944]

If he scores in Greece he should be in consideration for the Ethniki.

[Nikitas]

vellios about his transfer to forest.

 

http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36674048

[Nikitas]

he didnt had a good pre-season so far. he didnt score a goal in the four friendly's he played. he didnt impress yet and people expect he will struggle this season and i think he will probably start on the bench. here an article about that.

[RED SHERIFF]

he is not that good..should have stayed at Ira

[Dikefale11]

Should have stayed in Greece, 1 season at Iraklis where you get 10 goals is nothing special, he needed another season where he outdid himself last season to give himself more confidence.

 

BIG difference playing vs horafia teams and PL bound teams.

[Rockafeller Skank]

I was one of the people who were hoping the move to Forrest would happen. Apparently its too much for him.

Shouldnt stay at Ira. Should have stayed in Greece Oly/Aek were probably hoping they could get their hands on him. Would probably be better if he did that. Who knows though. We ve seen players play amazing in preseason and then become instant flops. Bet the opposite could happen.

[Nikitas]

as expected he started on the bench today. his rival cf scored 2 goals in a 4-3 victory over burton albion. vellios didnt saw the field. like i explained before he was poor in pre-season and didnt score a goal.

[Akritis_1944]

Moving to the Championship is a dumb, dumb dumb move.

He had offers elsewhere but I guess us Greeks are proper Anglophiles so he wanted to go back to England.

[MykinesFC]

The long grind will see him get his chances at playing time eventually. It's hard to always start with the same 11 in the Championship.

[Ethnikos]

Vellios is a retard for choosing the championship over the superleague. A league where he was guaranteed first-team football in his own motherland, and a chance to have another successful season and get back in the national team picture. But he threw it all away, to play for Nottingham forest, or atleast warm the bench for them. Mallllaaakaaa
