pash Posted December 18, 2021 Author Posted December 18, 2021 ^ that is a bizarre rationale and methodology for running a team 1
Dutch Eagle Posted December 24, 2021 Posted December 24, 2021 Ismaila Ouedraogo is invited for the Africa Cup of Nations by the Burkina Faso-manager. They will face host Cameroon, Cape Verde and Ethiopia. The tournament starts January 9th 2022 and lasts till February 6th
Athens4 Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 He will be sold to a Scandinavian or Eastern European side who will then knock us out of a European cup on a future date. He may even score. You heard it here first. 1

Blackhawk Posted December 28, 2021 Posted December 28, 2021 I have seen few PAOK 'B" games and believe me he has no spot on our senior team. He is young and might improve in the future, but he is nowhere near being good enough right now.
Dutch Eagle Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Ouédraogo was subbed in today in the GS match against Cape Verde of Garry Mendes Rodrigues. Burkina Faso won with 1-0. 1
Athens4 Posted January 17, 2022 Posted January 17, 2022 Our boy Ouedraogo is through to the next round. He played another 30 minutes today. I will try and catch Burkina Faso in the next round.
Athens4 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Our boy's tournament run is over after losing to Senegal 3-1. I guess he will be back in Thessaloniki soon.

Dutch Eagle Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Played the whole 120 minutes and lost after penalties despite being 3-0 up till the 70th minute.
Athens4 Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 Some shocking goalkeeping from both sides. I think our lad had a decent tournament though.
Dutch Eagle Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Biseswar is invited for the friendly that Suriname will play against Thailand later this month.
Dutch Eagle Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 Colak is invited for Croatia's friendlies at the end of March against Slovenia and Bulgaria.
Dutch Eagle Posted March 16, 2022 Posted March 16, 2022 Paschalakis is called up for the Ethniki but Tsiggaras and Lyratzis are ignored by the new manager.
pash Posted March 16, 2022 Author Posted March 16, 2022 Not all that surprising. Lyratzis only recently started playing, and I think a new manager is more likely to give the more experienced guys a run. Hopefully that changes soon.

Bananas Posted March 16, 2022 Posted March 16, 2022 Hmm I haven’t checked that thread out in ages but I’m not surprised. A common theme I’ve seen over the years is for this need to have a scapegoat. Be it Katsouranis, Tziolis or whoever. Not that these guys were great, they had their flaws but somehow there was this belief if we replaced them everything else would fall into place. Now it seems to be Bakasetas and Mantalos. Most people can watch soccer all their lives but can’t read a game let alone understand how team management, psychology and cohesion works. Skill is but one factor in selecting a player. There are many other factors considered. If it was all about skill, just go and pick one of those guys you see in a park that can juggle the ball like a champion. 2

Blackhawk Posted March 16, 2022 Posted March 16, 2022 I am sorry but calling Rota over Lyratzis is a very dumb move by the new coach. Same thing with Kourfalidis over Tsiggaras. There are some other choices that make no sense. No Giannoulis and Tzolis. The only good thing is that he did not call the two saboteurs Manolas and Papastathopoulos, apparently because they are tired. Keep those primadonas off the national team.
