Ireland have no idea how to build the play and play on the ground. Just long ball after long ball crap. Sadly they still did better than us!

ChrisT Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Highlights from the game; https://youtu.be/hMJ0fDd_h6w?si=_p_H-NyLNazscC6K The offside goal looked onside to me, even watching it on the replay through VAR. If your talking a few centimetres let the goal stand FFS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellada2004 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 A main concern after this match is how can none of our strikers score? Masouras got a couple goals & even Mavropanos. Pavlidis looks to be fighting it when he plays with NT he has not scored since last yr vs Cyprus in NL match. Giakoumakis is not consistent enough either. Douvikas should be on the team but apparently Poyet doesn’t rate him. Adding to this is that Fortounis the most offensively talented Greek player we had at our disposal retired the same day Poyet left him off the squad. Hopefully these things can be rectified he has done a better overall job by winning the NL and having Greece beat teams that we are suppose to be beating. At the end of the day Greece have to qualify for Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphonse Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Great win this one. Poyets needs to wake up though, there are blaring issues with the team if he needs to get his head around. Pavlidis isnt our best suited striker, for the game we are playing you need a Ioannidis or Giakoumakis in the position. Pelkas, Tzavellas, Chatzigiovanis, Limnios... stop wasting selections on guys like this, the latter has much potential but is we dont use him and he hasnt actually played in ages, why we calling them up. Cant have a team with Mantalos on the wing and Bakasetas in the middle, get to our talent like Tzolis and Konstantelias and get the team humming for the next level, we are going to struggle with Poyets plan A guys.

paokarag4 Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Talk about amateur hour, the 4 players who were thought to be suspended for this game were actually eligible to play. Obviously didn't impact the result but how that can happen at this level is mind boggling. What if this had been a game against the Irish, Dutch or French? The four players in question were: Tsimikas, Kourbelis, Siopis and Mantalos. Fyssas and Konstantinidis have taken the fall as technical directors of the team and maybe be sacked (although I doubt it). Surely more than 2 people know the rules? Crazy.

Dutch Eagle Posted September 12, 2023 Author Share Posted September 12, 2023 This is how EPO reacted: https://www.epo.gr/News.aspx?a_id=52847&NewsType=22 If one of the four receive a yellow against Ireland a one match suspension follows on the next MD, Indeed against Oranje.
