js1000 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 we play bosnia in sarajevo on friday night in a crucial world cup qualifier, the squad is as follows: Goalkeepers: Orestis Karnezis (Panathinaikos), Juri Lodigin (Xanthi), Michalis Sifakis (Charleroi).Defenders: Vassilis Torosidis (AS Roma), Loukas Vyntra (Levante), Sokratis Papastathopoulos (Werder Bremen), Avraam Papadopoulos (Olympiakos), Costas Manolas (Olympiakos), Stelios Malezas (Fortuna Dusseldorf), Giorgos Tzavelas (Monaco).Midfielders: Alexandros Tziolis (APOEL), Yiannis Maniatis (Olympiakos), Jose Holebas (Olympiakos), Costas Katsouranis (PAOK), Giorgos Karagounis (Fulham), Panagiotis Kone (Bologna), Panagiotis Tachtsidis (AS Roma), Costas Fortounis (Kaiserslautern), Lazaros Christodoulopoulos (Bologna).Forwards: Dimitris Salpingidis (PAOK), Georgios Samaras (Celtic), Costas Mitroglou (Olympiakos), Fanis Gekas (Akhisar Belediyespor).k paps is still out injured, and no place for ninis and fetfa who have hardly featured for their clubs. i'd be thrilled with a draw here, any thoughts??

pao123 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 honestly, between karnezi and sifaki we have the gk position covered sufficiently, why not give the kid a chance to train and prove himself. he is 22 and has actually had a pretty decent year with xanthi. although born in russia, he has been in greece since childhood and has made a handful of appearances for the youth side. who else would really be called in that 3rd GK spot? another youngster with limited experience.....so why not give him the exposure, see how he reacts. other than him, no real questionable calls. ninis and fetfa havent been playing regularly (or really at all), so i think santos is right in not calling them up. k. pap will definitely be missed. this is a very important game. assuming slovakia beat lithuania at home, we really need at least a point here to keep the advantage. bosnia have some great players, so this will probably be the most difficult match of the group.

Clover22 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Santos playing his friends again: Kara and Kats, 2 guys who are past their peak, who can't do anything creative but will still get the call up even when they're 60. And Vyntra. Am I supposed to take this seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genome Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 On paper this is probably the most dificult game left in our group for us. Also the most crucial game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

js1000 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 shocking line ups, going for a draw, malezas has been brilliant yet avraam is recalled despite hardly playing 4-5-1 with sammy up on his own and holebas left mid and tziolis kats and kara in the middle no tachtidis no fortounis no gekas and no kone, no adventure shown by santos. :tdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years in attempting to make a team but no improvements. I disagree file. Samaras is the whole team today. Karnezis saves a penalty, and we can't even clear the ball? Lazy!

INSTEAD WE HAVE HOLEBAS TZIOLIS SALPI AND AVRAAM AND WONDER WHY WE'RE 2 DOWN ALREADY I don't wonder. There is one good player on the field for us right now, and it's Giorgos Samaras. Why is Karagounis on the team, much less starting? If we aren't in Brazil, FIRE SANTOS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
