Omonoia9 Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 I've used my modly powers to edit the title, since Greece is home, to add the venue name, and the fact that you didn't quite spell Liechtenstein correctly. ? If we don't win this game, fire the Dutchman 1
Alphonse Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 I say fire the players! If some of these guys wanna hold the ball for 2 mins and pass it backwards or sideways all the time, they are not for International football 1
paokarag4 Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 Our players have a serious problem with being pressed. It's unbelievable, it's like they've never experienced it before. Like they've been pulled out of another footballing era and dropped into the modern game. I find it staggering that they expect to be given 5 seconds to control the ball, take a breath, have a look before they turn and then FINALLY turn. It was an issue that we struggled with and cost us against Armenia and we struggled again last night. I expect us to be too good for Liechtenstein regardless of if they press or not but it's something that needs to be addressed moving forward. Although I'm not sure it's something that can necessarily be improved once players reach senior international level. 2

All the managers since Santos we went through is proof that it really is the players. Just someone who can play in a decent cross would go a long way.
Torontoblue Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 We will win this match, Finland will lose to Italy and everyone will go crazy and think we will qualify for the Euros lol ?? 1

J1078 Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 This team is so dysfunctional that I wouldn't be completely supposed if we lost or draw this game...

Omonoia9 Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 How about this? Armenia just beat Bosnia-Herzegovina 4-2!

If some of these guys wanna hold the ball for 2 mins and pass it backwards or sideways all the time, they are not for International football We will still see back passes. It isn't the quality of the opponent that forces the back pass, it's the lack of quality of the system. 1

J1078 Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 I think Finland will get at least a draw today..
J1078 Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 This is he line up.. Barkas Bakakis Manolas Socratis Tsimikas Samaris Bouchalakis Fetfa Vrusai Masouras Koulouris
Soprano76 Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 What is this obsession with Barkas? Odisseas plays for Benfica, a perennial UCL team. 1

Argy Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 I am happy to see Fetfa. Like I said before, he didn't pan out like we all hoped, but he was the only player to give a new dimension to the NT. I have not seen anyone run at and challenge defenders like he did back in the day, and I am hoping to see that again vs Liechtenstein. 1

Antaeus7 Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 I think Barkas will cough up the ball and allow to go in and lose it for us. Of course, I was being sarcastic
