Original 21 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Big game this Saturday against Xanthi. We tied them 0-0 away in the league, and beat them 0-1 away in the cup. They are a very good team defensively so it will take a lot to break them down. We have some momentum coming off of two straight away wins which will help our confidence. I think we should try something like this: ---------------------------Anestis Bakakis-----Kolovetsios Labropoulos----Didac ---------------------------Simoes-------------------- ---------------Johanson--------Mantalos------------ Galo--------------------Djebour-----------Barbosa Bakakis and Labropoulos definitely proved that they should be starters on this team. Galo has also been very good this year, and since he has played further up the field before we should use him on the winger considering our lack of options. Aravidis has been good the past two games but Barbosa and Djebour are very important to us and can't come out of the lineup. He could play on the wing but to give Bakakis a chance and to not lose Galo's crossing abilities Aravidis can come off the bench. Cordero was probably the best on the field for us against Levadiakos but the three in the middle are so important and have so much skill it will be tough for any of them to come out. If anything, Mantalos would be the one to come out because he's been off of form, but I don't see it happening. It's ridiculous that we have so many great players in the midfield and at RB but we don't have any good centerbacks, only one real good winger, and only two strikers on the entire team.

Nikod Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) What's your take on Kolovetsios? Will he mature into a good player? Or is he not up to the standard we are trying to set? (I know he's already 24 so no spring chicken). He's clearly not a Sokratis/Manolas prodigy but perhaps he is a late bloomer like Moras or Kapsis...

Original Sydney Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Pan we do but hes injured and we have to have this guy in goals, who is heart attack material at best :) I think Kolo has talent but still has a lot to prove, only 24 and they do say CB mature with age so maybe he is a late bloomer, either way hes doing a good job for us. Xanthi is always tricky but being at home you would hope we get the job done as under Poyet both losses have come at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original 21 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Early reports saying that Labropoulos will start over Arzo. Labropoulos the last few games has been very good, hopefully he keeps it up. It also looks like Galo will start at Right Back with Buononotte in front of him and Bakakis on the bench. Nothing is official yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Johanson has a family issue going on now which caused him to miss practice a few times during the week. He thought he would be able to play today but he had to rush to the hospital to be with his wife and daughter who are both sick. It's nothing really serious long term, but he might have to miss today's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Buonanotte will probably score. I hope so but he really struggles against teams with a tight defense like Xanthi. He's much better when we have a lot of space to operate, that's when his magic happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original 21 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 After watching the replay Didac was the one that F***ed up on the goal, but Arzo is still trash. Vargas is invisible and should come off for Djebour so we can have two strikers in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
